Why does the bible forgive certain sins and not others? today i saw a post. and i think you've all seen it before. about forgiveness, honesty, and what haves you. mainly, about how god if he even exists. forgives certain sins. so my problem with this one is... why? like... child raping. alot of based users put it bluntly, that just because god forgives you doesn't mean that there isn't any earthly consequences for your actions in the meantime. and i agree with this. however... why are certain sins forgiven? but others not? it seems rather inconsistent for this to be. imagine if theirs 2 people. both committed sins. and both of them ended up in heaven. but theirs's more.

1 stole. and the other raped his mom to death. according to the bible, both have sinned. but aslong as both repent, they both end up in heaven, looking at you u/swamprangers. now, why would god, take 2 different sins. and equate them both, to be equally bad? seems kinda weird, how the matricide rapist, has an equal chance of getting into heaven. compared to the thieve. it seems kinda weird, that a system like that would be in place. but if your jewish, (according to 98% of the users here, sit wide. and 70% of the users in KIA2 ) atheist, gay, or adulters, there is no repentance, and you go to hell.

Now don't worry. this is indeed an indictment on the bible. but then again, that's the problem with almost any holybook ingeneral, it's pretty much bullshit that softens people to real world crimes. because the idea is... the bad guys will get theirs in the end... somehow?
