"But it will be too late", is that what you're saying?

I'm talking about this specific doctrine. What do you think of annihilationist interpretation?

I don't know what exactly is "too late". If you are breathing it is surely not too late.

I don't believe in annihilationism. I can't think of any respected person that does.

I do find it odd that you, as a non believer, spend so much time pondering things that you do not think exist. I mean, I don't spend any time pondering righteous communists.

"I don't know what exactly is "too late". If you are breathing it is surely not too late." - the "soon enough you'll know" you referred to?..

"I don't believe in annihilationism. I can't think of any respected person that does." - uhm... John Stott?

(What do you personally think of the Jesus's reference to "worm that never dies and fire that's never quenched"? Isn't that a reference to a passage in Isaiah - which uses the exact same words - which in turn explicitly talks about eternal death rather than eternal torture in fire?)

"I do find it odd that you, as a non believer, spend so much time pondering things that you do not think exist." - well what if I'm actually wrong? (how am i supposed to be certain?..)

"I mean, I don't spend any time pondering righteous communists." - didn't catch your analogy? what do commies have to do with threats of eternal torture?
