Quote:Knowledge of what evil is, but choosing what is God's will would then be what earns your ticket to the pearly gates.But what if you don't want to go to either a heaven or hell? What if you're happy with simply returning to the state you were at before existence?
If there is only two options and no other then where's the freedom?
It's that 'either you're on my side or his!' What if I have no interest in taking sides? What if I don't want to play ball?
Had to add this, Bertrand. Some relevance as he speaks a bit about morality.

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence - Carl Sagan
Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity.
Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist.
You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.
