This thread is irrelevant to the issue of believing God or disbelieving in him.

I've made it clear time and time again, I don't believe in the type of God that tortures people for disbelieving.

I even made a poem defying such a God here:

It rather has to do with how we should rationally deal with religions that threaten people with consequences of disbelief.

I think the rational thing is to investigate the religion and become sure it's wrong if you are not going to follow it.

I feel I have done that with regards to the religions that teach there is consequence for disbelief.
