What do you think of this passage?

Truth seeker:

You are making several mistakes:

1) You seem to be assuming a finite number of possible gods

2) You're assuming that pretending to believe in a god is going to fool a god

3) You're missing the fact that for every set of criteria for heaven/hell, there's another set of possible criteria which are exactly reversed. So you literally cannot win. And since you have no idea how much work is involved in either scenario, for an infinite number of these opposed criteria sets, it's impossible to generate any kind of pragmatic plan this way.

A god who isn't a dick will be happy with you treating people and animals right.

A god that is a dick can't be trusted to stick to his criteria and isn't worthy of respect.

That's my pragmatic formula

On #1) Sure, we can assume infinite deities, no worries. And then when we assign a cost/risk function, it will simply be zero for all deities from which there were no claims of punishment/warning.

On #2) Not really. I will say ((that's *if* there is actually a hereafter)) that I didn't have conclusive evidence, but I got your warning messages and did my end of the deal. Now its your turn.

A god who isn't a dick will be happy with you treating people and animals right.
A god that is a dick can't be trusted to stick to his criteria and isn't worthy of respect.
That's my pragmatic formula

Mmm, not really .. He doesn't seem to be really that big of a dick  .. he claims this:

And there is no creature on the earth, nor a flying bird with its wings, except but they are communities like you.
We have neglected nothing in the Book. Then unto their Lord they will be gathered.

O mankind! Lo! We have created you male and female, and have made you nations and tribes that ye may know one another. Lo! the noblest of you, in the sight of God, is only the best in conduct. Lo! God is the All-Knower, All-Aware.
