Leftism, by nature, is diametrically opposed to the idea of objective truth. The postmodern foundation of leftists stands in opposition to Christianity, especially since it offers only one way of salvation (through Christ).
Now, your anger over biblical Christianity is causing your judgment to be clouted and to cross the line of flawed logic and reasoning, claiming that any opponent of yours must be or is like a leftist. The essence and nature of leftist postmodernism is openness and all inclusive, hence this is why you see Presbyterian and Lutheran etc churches featuring homosexuals as “pastors” and in leadership. Their gospel is not biblical and it is not “one way.”
You are being irrational and wrongfully portraying leftists for the sake of arguing and defying your religious opponent… which ironically is similar to how leftists argue and believe (openness and shunning that which is objective, true, and exclusive).
If your religion believes it's own version of truth is the only version of truth, you are no different from leftism.
Christianity isn't wrong. But the modern interpretations of it being the truth and the only truth seems no less inane than leftism denying electoral fraud, promoting CRT and dividing society.
Incorrect, and I already explained the reasons why. But you are bound to dig your heels further into the ground because you have nothing else. What is a “modern interpretation?”
Modern suggests being new and novel, such neo-orthodox or something else that undermines what is true, therefore contradicting that truth which has stood the test of time since the apostles, the reformers, and our current day (leaning on and standing in line with what is historically biblical, accepted by the true church and orthodox).
I don’t think you understand your own argument. The reason is, it is self-defeating.
Again, like I stated before, your premise for argumentation is openness and inclusivism, which is the same foundation that postmodernism and “leftism” hinge on. So, in that respect, you are more in line with “being like a leftist” than the person you accused earlier in the post/thread.
Is God all loving or not?
If he is, why would people born in India or China go to Hell because they started with the "wrong" religion?
We are incapable of determining what God is required to do or not do. The reason is, we are His creation and He is our Creator. He is also the author of morality. Therefore, we do not create systems of rules for which we obligate God to fit into or not and then determine or conclude He is loving or not. Scripture speaks to all people who are born in environments of various religions and exposure to (or lack thereof) the gospel:
13 For “everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”
14 How then will they call on him in whom they have not believed? And how are they to believe in him of whom they have never heard? And how are they to hear without someone preaching? 15 And how are they to preach unless they are sent? As it is written, “How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the good news!” 16 But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Isaiah says, “Lord, who has believed what he has heard from us?” 17 So faith comes from hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ. Romans 10:13-17.
Additionally, all people recognize their Creator (whether we like it or not, or agree with it or not) by observing all of creation. And the moral law of God is in all people, which is sufficient enough to compel people to search for Him. Those who genuinely do, He grants the finding and He grants the truly repentant heart salvation. Regarding moral law in all people:
12 For all who have sinned without the law will also perish without the law, and all who have sinned under the law will be judged by the law. 13 For it is not the hearers of the law who are righteous before God, but the doers of the law who will be justified. 14 For when Gentiles, who do not have the law, by nature do what the law requires, they are a law to themselves, even though they do not have the law. 15 They show that the work of the law is written on their hearts, while their conscience also bears witness, and their conflicting thoughts accuse or even excuse them 16 on that day when, according to my gospel, God judges the secrets of men by Christ Jesus. Romans 2:12-16
Arguments of geographical location collapse on themselves and in the face of the Word of God. Loopholes to argue against God do not exist.
You will never create a victorious argument against God and His Word.
