But, IF that God is the SAME God as described from the Bible then you would either have to submit or have your ass kicked for eternity since God just happens to be an asshole. So you either fight the living God who made you, or submit or get to be at peace...I think the choice is clear. This isn't like not getting a credit card because you don't like the high interest rates. And it certainly would not be a "standing up against the bully" thing since the bully has power over your life and all afterlife.

It wouldn't be much of a choice for me...but it would be clear...that I still couldn't be a christian. There's no way for me to get into the christian gods after-party unless I can fake it, unless he can be tricked. Which, I suppose, is moot point...since I don't want in, in the first place.
