Hello everyone!!

[Psalm 23]

That also raises the question as to which god you should follow?

I believe in following the God that I was raised to believe in and become to know. But don't think for a second that I was raised in a religious family. We never prayed, nor went to Church. We just simply believed and that was it.

Why, given all the thousands of gods that man has believed in, should *your* god be the right one? There are some common points in most religions but there are many discrepancies too and you will almost certainly be doing something to bar you from ever lasting life in one of them by following another (if you see what I mean).

Honestly? I don't know if the Christian God is the right one, but for the time being.. it feels like the right one. Who's to know if I will convert to Islam in 10 years? I cannot foresee the future. If I could foresee the future, that would make me a Prophet. And I'm far from a Prophet.

It makes much more sense to not follow any god and behave as though this was your only life. If you do find yourself before a god after you die then surely a loving god would say "You didn't believe in me, but you were a decent person so you can come in anyway."

We don't know for sure who God will throw into Hell or not. Many Christians have spread evilness towards atheism, and how some of them may be the agents of the Devil in disguise trying to evaporate God from the world. So, these Christians get angry, and what better way to upset an unbeliever than by telling them they are going to Hell and burning forever, and ever!!!

EDIT:Hello & welcome by the way!

Thank You! This place seems pretty cool so far.

You are confusing atheism with anti-theism. I am not turning against anything, I just don't believe such a thing as a god exists. Certainly not the biblical one.

anti-theism? Hmmm.. maybe you're right. However, you say, "Not the Biblical one," that is an unsure statement. No human mind on Planet Earth is capable of knowing if the Bible God exists or not. That is just a pure common fact of life. Trust me, I would love to prove God exists to you... Just as much as you would love to disprove God. Either way, no one wins. That is really everything in a nutshell.

Just rewording it doesn't make any more or less sense than the original wager.

No, but it means the same..

But apparently your religion and the wager does:
I think Pascal's wager makes perfectly good sense."If I'm wrong I win, If your wrong, you will know about it forever, and ever!!"

I certainly wouldn't call Pacal's wager a judgement. It's more like a concern.

And I do not believe for a second moral laws are passed on from any deity. Morality is in everyone of us that wants to partake into a society, no god is needed for that.

I'm not so sure. If you can provide evidence of ancient scripture with the same moral laws, then I would love to see them.
