Then you haven't been paying much attention, John. A good cluck of people here have serious qualms with the certainty (don't play) of Hell and eternal torment with regards to your Religion.

Not that you care, but the Crux of my "Salvation"
was the abandonment of other's salvation. It still is. If I got handed a free Go to Heaven card after death because somehow your god exists--I could not accept it so long as anyone from this Earth is placed in eternal punishment for their actions upon this type of set up "Creation". 
I'd spit on it, even, at the audacity of such a being, and spend eternity in hell with all the other overpowered beings rather than spend eternity in heaven listening to the laments and suffering from down below. NO ONE deserves that for this

Indeed only a monster would accept paradise when people whos only crime it was to be skeptical are burning forever

Ah the tired " but he must have reason we don't understand argument" pure hand waving
Seek strength, not to be greater than my brother, but to fight my greatest enemy -- myself.
