When I started posting on TAF I stated that most people hate God. This is exactly why: He gets the glory no matter what. And you know what? its proper because He deserves the glory. You cant breath apart from Him. Everything comes from Him.

Wow, you're god sure is self centered, 'eh?
Also, how the hell (pun unintended) is being condemned to torment going to make me love (Glory being 'adoring praise') your god. If anything I'd 'hate' it more.
Also, the first and second sentences have nothing to do with each other, and the Majority of the US, at least, are Christians, so most people do not 'hate' your god.

Fixed.
Yeah, because Christianity isn't the most popular religion in the world and the only other religion in the world is Satanism and Satanists are evil monsters who want to kill god.
Seriously, moron, learn what you're talking about before you spout your stupidity.
It will either be as a demonstration of His mercy in heaven, or a demonstration of his wrath in hell.
Or a demonstration of his incompetence on earth.
"When I started posting on TAF I stated that most people hate God"
Which is why so many people are religious. And atheists suddenly hate something they don't believe even exists.
"This is exactly why: He gets the glory no matter what"
No, that's why we have a problem with you. You can't give credit where credit is due, you give it to a god for which there is no evidence.
"You cant breath apart from Him."
I'm doing it right now. Autonomic nervous system and all.
"a demonstration of His wrath in hell"
Wow, a god so desperate for glory that he'll send people to eternal torture just to prove he can.
Which means that you speak of things that don't make sense to you and devoid of sense. Let me be clear on something. At least when the Ancient Israelites thought that God in his glory manifested it's because they selectively interpreted facts to their convenience. Ok, at least something tangible. When Jesus came, understood that it didn't make sense any longer and he said that God was manifested with good works. Ok, something more palatable. And then, Calvinist like you gave the turn of the screw. You returned to Judaism in its most stupid form, trying to live by the rents of Christiantiy. The best of both worlds, I would say. Which explains why the first sentence has no connection whatsoever with the sencond.
"Let me make it real clear : God will get glory out of you. It will either be as a demonstration of His mercy in heaven, or a demonstration of His wrath in hell."
Well I'm all for praising your god. Does "Seig hail" work or should I just go with "Praise Jesus"?
"He deserves the glory."
Why would a deity already possessing omnipotence (infinite power to do anything need something as irrelevant as 'glory'? Sounds like a capricious, evil ego-monster to me. Certainly one not deserving so much as belief, never mind respect or even 'glory'.
"or a demonstration of His wrath in hell."
So much for an 'all-loving God'. If someone is supposed to be 'all-loving' needs to display 'wrath', then that means he's a contradiction to himself, therefore God doesn't exist.
And now you know why Atheism exists.
You can't extort love or glory. "Oh, look how glorious, the eternal agony of the souls who chose not to embrace me."
I am so, so, so sorry for you, stuck in labyrinthine logic.
So I take it that the deity you enjoy worshiping is a thing that is incapable of controlling its temper. Further, it is a weak-minded thing that revels in its obvious unjustness and is easily upset by fairly trivial things such as people not believing in it. Hah! It is an intemperate moron with no equilibrium at all.
Given that it is an invented thing any way, could it be that its moronic characteristics were originally ascribed to it by people who were the fundamental cultists of their time? For a thing which is supposedly omnipotent, omniscient, and omnipresent and is so valued as a source of wisdom and life and everything by certain bumbling fools who worship it, why does it spend so much of its time in the gutters just because the fundamental cultists put it there?

`I don't know what you mean by "glory",' Alice said.
Humpty Dumpty smiled contemptuously. `Of course you don't -- till I tell you. I meant "there's a nice knock-down argument for you!"'
`But "glory" doesn't mean "a nice knock-down argument",' Alice objected.
`When I use a word,' Humpty Dumpty said, in rather a scornful tone, `it means just what I choose it to mean -- neither more nor less.'
Seems as if someone DID put Humpty together again...
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
