No you can't, because you overlook the spirit.
The truth needs not to brainwash.I do think that ALL beleifs use brainwashing. I dont know if its bad.
Since you were born into sin and sin leads to death and the second death, God provides a perfect loving salvation. To refuse His forgiveness has to place you somewhere since you will never cease to exist, and that somewhere is in hell because you are made in the image of God with God-consciousness in your spirit to know this salvation. Thus, you would be without excuse.I just dont see the love in "beleive in me or hell."
It is not designed to scare, but a necessity to keep you eternally separated from God's own people who are being perfected to sinlessness and selflessness.I do see hell as one of the best scare tactics in the universe.
It's true, we are all born into sin. The proof is no person has never not sinned but Jesus.I dont see all the "not one is good" and "dirty rag deeds" in all the people of the world who do not have god in the christian sense.
