gollark: I don't think this justifies being punished forever, *infinitely*, especially since, as you said, part of it is a product of the environment. Guess which omnipotent god set up that environment?

gollark: I don't think they should be supporting entirely avoidable eternal torture.
gollark: If the Islamic god does exist approximately as described, I would want a better one.
