RE: On the lunacy of free will

I've never considered the "better believe in god just in case it's real or you'll go to hell" argument to be genuine. If you choose to believe in something just to save your ass, then your motivation is selfish. I don't respect any god that would accept that excuse. And, as I've said numerous times here, you have to pick the right god. Picking the wrong one doesn't do you any good.
Why is it so?
