Translation:
There's not a single thing Jesus said which I actually live by.

Can you explain that? I don't believe I said that at all. Your reasoning that you used on the AE is a straw man to everyone like myself that has never ascribed to Pascal wager. And I definitely don't believe that you've proven that it was a requirement for all disciples of Jesus. You said, "well it couldn't hurt" that could be true, but it doesn't prove your point as absolute

AGAIN, I took the trouble of calling the argument "Upping the ante of Pascal's Wager." So assuming that the wager is a logically sound argument, certain actions are compulsory. You CANNOT refute my argument by rejecting Pascal's Wager because I am saying that IF you accept the WAGER then my argument follows. It is irrelevant if you don't believe that giving all your wealth away is required or not because it is 100% TRUE that if you do this then your chances of getting into heaven CANNOT DECREASE but MIGHT INCREASE.
Get it?

Jesus is like Pinocchio. He's the bastard son of a carpenter. And a liar. And he wishes he was real.
