"if someone is an evil person who makes no effort to ask God for forgiveness, or change his, or her evil ways then that person has kinda brought it on his, or herself."
I'm not evil, but it seems to me that even people who ARE evil, still don't deserve infinite torture for finite crimes. That just doesn't make sense. Speaking of evil, do you know who creates it according to the Bible? God. Just read Isaiah 45:7.
"All a person has to do to avoid eternal damnation is to accept Jesus as their Lord, and savior, and repent of their sins."
So, if you don't accept Jesus, you'll be damned, huh? That seems like pure blackmail to me. Also, what if Christianity isn't the answer and there is some other God? How would they respond to you?
"If you're afraid of Hell then maybe you ought to rethink your beliefs, because you sound awfully afraid of a place that atheists don't believe exists."
I've come to realize that there is just as much (or as little) reason to fear the Hell of Christianity, than it is to fear all the Hells of all the other religions. In any case, God can't expect me to believe in him, if he doesn't provide any evidence. I'll just try to be a decent and kind human being and that should be enough if it turns out there is a God.
Religion is frustrating

Okay, good luck with that.
... and no, I'm not trying to be sarcastic.
