Particularly if they exist only in your own imagination.
I'm sure it's frustrating to try to engage in a discussion on a topic that is of no particular interest to you when you don't understand the other participant(s). I'm still hopeful someone will read my post from yesterday and understand what I'm theorizing. Unfortunately, it isn't going to be you.
Quite simply you have not presented any rational argument why the Christian literally viewed physical act of Jesus dying, Jesus being a God in human form, should be interpreted logically by anyone (christian or not) as showing or evidence of God's love. I've told you I don't follow why the atonement should be viewed as God showing love and you've not addressed that.

However I'm not asking you to at this point.
Good, because that's not my purpose in participating on this thread, as noted more than once above.
The road is beautiful, treacherous, and full of twists and turns.
