Or would you just walk into the court-room, give him the finger, and die?

Just curious...

Now, on the other hand...

If that same ruler, after observing your deed, forgave you and let your whole family live, and sent His only son to die in your place. Would you not be the slightest bit grateful?

The thing created, can't possibly say to the creator: Why have you made me this way? Showing the utmost contempt, then bemoan his fate.
1st of all you are completely wrong. If Jesus did come to die for my sins I have nothing to worry about. He died already and if my sins are not forgiven then he failed. Based on what you "christians" say Jesus never fails.

2nd I believe it is Isaiah 45:7 that say "I made the light and created darkness, I made good and created evil, I the Lord your God did all these things." So based on your potter and clay theory from above I'm not complaining if he finds me evil because he made me.

3rd If God is Love and Love never fails and God doesn't intend for me to go to Hell because Jesus died for my sins then I am safe.
