Btw OP - have you ever heard of "Pascal's Wager" - what are your thoughts on it?
 Quoting: Blue_Triquetra


Yes! It is flawed unfortunatelly.
The logic assumes that if god exists then god decides if we are tortured forever or live happy in paradise forever. God bases his decision on your belief. If this is not the case, then you will go to hell for believing in the wager not in god itself. The decision is also based on religious law obedience. And again the wager doesn't work if god does not like people following religious law. It also assumes that god is necessarily the christian god and you must believe the exact doctrinal points that Pascal himself was raised with. And once again the wager does not work if god doesn't like people from a specific branch of religion. Also he assumed that he can rationally decide to believe.
