You said that I had no way to judge in a scenario where positive emotions were truly intrinsically good. But I would have a way to think of a longer duration of positive emotions being better just as how a blind person could still think of colors in his mind. I also think it doesn't matter what preferences people have; it can still only be their euphoric and dysphoric states that can be the positive and negative feelings, experiences, and emotions in thier lives and they are still the only things that can allow them to truly see the good and bad values in their lives.
So if it differs for every person or can change at any time, then in what the fuck way is it objective?
Religions were invented to impress and dupe illiterate, superstitious stone-age peasants. So in this modern, enlightened age of information, what's your excuse? Or are you saying with all your advantages, you were still tricked as easily as those early humans?

There is no better way to convey the least amount of information in the greatest amount of words than to try explaining your religious views.
