True Christian Religion #488
488. The unnatural belief that God predestines people to hell can be compared with the unnatural behaviour of fathers in some savage nations, who throw their own unweaned babies and children out into the streets; and with the unnatural behaviour of some enemies, who throw the bodies of those they have killed out in the woods for wild beasts to devour. It can also be compared with the cruelty of a tyrant, who divides the people under his control into groups, and some groups he hands over to executioners, some he throws into deep water at sea, and some into fire. It can also be compared with the ferocity of some wild animals which devour their own young; and with the madness of dogs which fly at their own reflexions seen in a mirror.
