	Just as a moment of insanity can land a murderer in prison for a
	lifetime, a person's foolishness during an extremely short lifetime
	(when compared to forever) can doom him to an eternity of unhappiness.
	I certainly am not ready to take that gamble!

	Christianity teaches that Jesus loves, forgives, and accepts all people
	regardless of the nature or magnitude of their sins...

Don't these two statements seem contradictory?  If Jesus IS that loving
and forgiving then why would he allow someone to be condemned for eternity
for a few very transitory transgretions?  I wouldn't condemn MY friends
like this.  How much more forgiving he must be then.
