:Annihilationism is rejected by most Protestants, rejected by the Catholic Church and I could not find any Eastern Orthodox theologians promoting this doctrine.[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annihilationism] These are the 3 main branches of Christianity. So Got Questions Ministries disagreeing with annihilationism is not notable. I am taking the annihilationism material out of the article.

::I am keeping the " "once saved, always saved"/Calvinism and Nephilim material as being "Questionable/false doctrines" because these positions are more difficult to support biblically and are minority positions with Christendom. In addition, they are not positions held by the early church fathers or early church. [[User:Conservative|Conservative]] ([[User talk:Conservative|talk]]) 04:08, December 24, 2022 (EST)

:::Sigh, ''[[argumentum ad populum]]'' does not determine what is biblically correct and what isn't. Numerous times in the Bible, Jesus and other prominent leaders make it so abundantly clear that death is a sleep ([https://biblehub.com/matthew/9-24.htm Matthew 9:24], "the girl is not dead but sleeping"; [https://biblehub.com/john/11-11.htm John 11:11], "our friend Lazarus has fallen asleep"), and biblical truth is independent of official church teachings. As for annihilationism, see [https://biblehub.com/matthew/10-28.htm Matthew 10:28]. If the soul burns forever (and thus is immortal), how is it ever destroyed? The Bible continuously deems the punishment for sin to be ''death'', and therefore, IMO, it's ironic that most fundamentalist, self-proclaimed "biblical literalists" insist that "death as a sleep doesn't mean ''real'' sleep" and "the second death in Hell isn't ''real'' death."
:::There's already a debate page about soul sleep, and I'll try to contribute more arguments in favor of the doctrine. We should also have a debate page about annihilationism; I'll start one later unless you'd like to get it going soon, as I have a few other discussions to contribute to first. —[[User:LT|<code><span style="background:#FF8181">'''LT'''</span></code>]] '''''[[User talk:LT|<sup>(Exodus 23:2)</sup>]]''''' Saturday, 11:02, December 24, 2022 (EST)
