I want to add a point to this thread ...

We (non-believers) get this question A LOT from believers. I would go so far as to say it is the #1 question I have been asked in my life since walking away from organized religion. This question has come up SOOOO many times that my ultimate conclusion is this:

Christians are full of shit because they use the argument of morality, right and wrong, good and evil, and all that other garbage as a cover story for the real truth.

And the real truth is - Christians (like the majority of humans) are afraid of death and religion is a giant coping mechanism.

I think everything else is just side dishes, garnish and condiments. The real meat of Christianity is making yourself feel warm and cozy about accepting your own demise.

Bonus: You figured out how to control people and make money off of it, but in the end, you just can't accept the fact that EVERYTHING dies.

Hey kids, let me tell you 'bout heaven ...
"la la la la - have you heard that heaven is full of chocolate cake on golden plates and that every day is like waking up for the first time and everyone is beautiful and no one ever cries and we can hang out with god forever and ever and there's no possible way for me to ever get bored because god fixed my brain and a beautiful angel serves breakfast in bed to you every morning and even makes sure that the bacon is cooked just the way you like it and you can fly and you can have sex with virgins and you can move by thought alone and its just totally awesome awesome, and its going to make all the problems I have now look so insignificant and ...."

How god damn stupid can a person get?
