I'm convinced he doesn't exist but I was wondering what you all have to say about this weird guilt of mine of thinking that maybe, just maybe, God exists and I'll end up in hell when I die.
I ask honestly because I wanna get rid of these superstitious bullshit in my brain.
Take comfort in the certain knowledge that Hell would be the preferable destination. Any Deity that would create Hell and then send innocents there to be tormented unspeakably for eternity probably isn't going with the rainbows and unicorns motif in Its Heaven. At a minimum, you're looking at having your memories wiped and your free will sucked out. Because if they don't then Heaven is an eternity of the certain knowledge that everybody who isn't there with you is currently balls deep in bubbling lava while a demon wears them as a cock holster. Or worse. And the best part of Heaven is that you'll spend the rest of time singing the praises of the Architect of these twin torments. Heaven and Hell will be distinguishable only by the finest of forensic analyses.
All of that speaks strongly to an omni-malevolent deity, or at best one that's criminally incompetent. The universe that we inhabit simply doesn't support that any more than it does the all-loving god that the theists claim. It's simply uncaring at its worst. Look around you and know that there is beauty in the world, and know that no god that could create hell could have made that.
