If he isn't the real deal I might still go to hell - any number of other gods and prophets could be maintaing their own little s&m dungeons in the hereafter. Heavy on the s, light on the m..ofc. Or, maybe, your prophet (or anyone's prophet...really) could be the real deal and I won't go to hell even so.
- to all of this..I say...and? There are any number of ways the scenario can play out, you gave two... but none of them seem to have anything to do with me, particularly, and I doubt that I could stop some silly god from doing whatever it wanted to do with me.
This is where the story breaks. Since I claim that my prophet is true, this should be discussed first.
If it turns out to be true, no other alternatives need to be explored so there's no need for a whole lot of confusion.
And unlike the others, I have a holy book that I can stand behind.
This is no simple claim.
For, if a book has come from God (Perfect), a deficiency or error cannot be accepted in it.
Now, when I tell you that there is no mistake in a 600-page book with very serious scope, if I can prove it, you must accept that the Prophet I believe is real.
