There is nothing to fear. Absolutely Nothing. For God is Orgasm, and Orgasm is pure bliss.....it is foolish to fear such a powerful goodness.
cannot a god forbid a mortal to be in its presence?
If god is pure bliss then without the presence of such a god all would be darkness and fear. There is plenty to fear from your god marchello . . . erm . . . Urizen.

That is where your misconceptions arise. You, like Marcello, still subscribe to the beleif that God is a person.
God is not male, or female, God has no gender. Does your Orgasm itself have its own genitals ?
❌
Genitals and Gender are nothing but instruments by which the Primal Force of Creation flows....
Orgasm cannot forbid anyone....
But you yourself can forbid orgasm....
God does not shun you, you shun God...
Invite God into your life....allow the Orgasm to take its place and you will know Peace....

I believe that this idea that human nature is sinful, leads to great evil and suffering. It allows people to have an escape goat; instead of looking at themselves and asking "why are we doing this or that?". The truth is that God is inside of each of us; our basic nature is the Buddha, everything we do is our fault, we have no excuse.
I don't think so. I think the belief of human imperfection gives one something to strive for and look forward to. I have also found that those who understand their faults as well as accept them, are prone to being more content with their lives. These people generally don't take themselves too seriously, possess a spirit of humility as oppossed to pride and fear, and are usually less judgemental when confronted with the imperfections of others.

The people I know in my life who are "people generally don't take themselves too seriously, possess a spirit of humility as opposed to pride and fear, and are usually less judgemental when confronted with the imperfections of others" are Buddhist. The judgment and hateful ones are Christian.

You do realize you've just passed a judgement on all Christians in the above referenced statements?

What kind of judgment? Are you confused?
You were quick to judge the actions of those labeled Christian as hateful, and made a favorable judgement towards those who identified themselves as Buddhists. I've been guilty of similar judgements myself, particularly in recent years. The older I get though, the more I tend to find that not everyone who calls themself a "Christian" is truly loving, nor is every person labeled as non-Christian truly unloving.

What about priests that molest children, should I not judge them?
One should definitely use "good judgement" when engaging with any individual they don't know very well, without assigning eternal damnation to them for any sinful actions they've commited, or making long term judgements about their character.
