Irrational
What made it a default puzzles me.
Even I don't escape the warning he gave; in other words I'm just a broadcaster for his message. Remember that I remind myself with it all day.
In the day of judgement, actually we'll run away from each other, to each of us a whole burden to worry about.
In terms of "doing" what he wants only; that's a fact. It's a rule of the universe anyhow.
I never agreed to marijuana being banned. But the strong prohibits it through brute force, I never liked living in the place I'm in, but if I try to cross the borders the strong will kill me.
These are the rules of the universe. It wasn't meant to flow the way we want. Never.
Worshipping god is something, worshiping other "stuff" is something else. When God creates, it's not like a human when he creates. When God sets rules, it's not like humans setting rules.
The word dictator cannot be applied to him.
How you'll be judged, is something up to God and not me, all I can do as a believer, is to warn from the day we get judged. Either to heaven, either to hell.
Then in this life, work to gain my rank. Hoping that my God will accept me.
Quote:It's the default option. Until you present clear evidence for the existence of God, atheism is the reasonable option to go with.
Keep in mind that atheism means lack of belief in God, not the belief that no God exists.

So you're basically threatening me on god's behalf; my big brother will beat you up if you don't do what he says (which just happens to be what I'm telling you to do). That's it? That's your argument for why I should join a religion?
We should do what God says or he will punish us. His authority is beyond question. There is no discussion or reasoning with him. He will do what he wants to do through force.
That is a fascist dictator. I'm surprised you can't see that. Are you OK with this?
I'm not interested in bowing to dictators. I'll live my life using my own brain to decide what is right and wrong, and I won't demean myself by worshipping anyone. A being that demands worship is certainly not worthy of it, anyway. If he punishes me for living a good life, and putting the happiness and wellbeing of people and animals that I can be sure are actually real above his petty demands for attention, then he is an evil egotistical being.
I don't trust any being like that, anyway. Anyone who rules through force and just does whatever the fuck they want can change their mind on a whim and chuck me in the bin even after I spent my whole life sucking up to them. If he has a shred of goodness, he will see that I'm using my brain to live my life in a way I consider good.
Maybe he'll respect me for having the balls to stand up to him, huh?
