And if you are wrong , eternity is a long time.
RE: And if you are wrong , eternity is a long time.
I kind of identify with Artur how feeling you can eliminate all religions but one. It felt like that for me with regards to Islam. And still feels like if there is a true religion, it's Islam. But I'm realizing more and more, this is due to my subjective experience and attachment to what I am comfortable with, as opposed to objective facts.

At the end, we should all want to be sincere to the truth not out of fear of punishment, but for the sake of being honest.

Artur! I see you're back! Have you read about Pascal's Wager yet?

I'm going to continue to do this until this disingenuous troll acknowledges my question.

Artur, meet Pascal.. Pascal, meet Artur.

Now that you've met properly, I'm sure you'll feel very comfortable getting to know him.

No no no, you're all wrong - the only True Religion™ is Ceiling Catism!
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

In Pakistan, India, Muslims are raping and hanging in the name of their unitary god.

In Africa, they are raping,beheading ,burning ,necklacing and clubbing to death in the name of the one unitary god .






In Haiti ,they are yelling screaming and drinking chicken's blood in the name of their great god conga ..

In the usa ,you have a bunch of scumbags cheating college kids calling themselves scientologists and so it goes.
Use the process of elimination to get to the truth.

Yeah, not trying to blame you or anyone here. I was saying it in amusement. Some Christians can be really frustrating when trying to reason with them, so fair game.

Given the thinly veiled threats you were making against atheists in the atheist persecution thread, I get the feeling the only thing stopping you from doing exactly what you're castigating these other religions for is our secular governments. Dodgy

Besides, you don't get to just look at how your religion acts now, when it's forced to behave, as representative of the character of that: you'd be better served looking at how your religion acted when it was powerful, when there was nothing to hinder it in the execution of exactly what it wanted to do.

I believe that was called the fucking dark ages, genius. Dodgy

Artur, you evading my question is against the rules. I suggest you answer it.

Rule #1
"This is a discussion forum.
This means that members should interact with each other in a proper discussion, and not purposely / repeatedly evade rebuttals made to them. Whilst members are not forced or required to answer every post addressed to them, ignoring them all and continuing to post similar content will fall in line with our "No Spam" rule."

So the believers themselves are what dictate if a religion is true? That's amazing. Tell me, what's your religion? Actually, I think I know how it will progress from here, so let me just cut to the chase.
You: I am X.
Me: Yeah, but X people have done horrible things like A, B, C, (...), Omega, and so on.
You: They weren't "true" X's.
Me: Neither were the people you mentioned in the above post.
You: *crickets*/*lame excuse for why your argument only applies where you want it to*

Also, if you're right, eternity is still a long time. What exactly is your argument? At least with Hell, they will eventually run out of tortures, so you will know what to expect. With Heaven, you will run out of things to do and be bored for eternity. You'll want to kill yourself, but you can't. Even if you could, you'd go to Hell. You'll try to seek comfort in kissing God's rotundus ass, but that will get boring too, eventually. You will have nothing to do. Forever.
Think about that.
The truth is absolute. Life forms are specks of specks (...) of specks of dust in the universe.
Why settle for normal, when you can be so much more? Why settle for something, when you can have everything?

Ok, I'll eliminate Christianity as well based on what many Christian ministers do to poor kids.
