You can choose to believe in something either splendid or horrible after you die, or be left with a null stance. How exactly is it coercion or bullying? If I told you it was raining outside and you didn't believe me and went outside and got wet, then decided to stay outside because you denied the rain would you say I coerced/bullied you into going outside by the mere fact you're by nature impetuous and willful (not anyone specifically just a question)?Yes, you are a bully, since you made the rain just for the purpose of punishing him, and you forcefully made him stay in it. And he's not staying in the rain denying it's there, since it's not there right now while he's alive. The alleged 'rain' (eternal torture of hell) it is said not to happen until after the rain creator kills you. Surely, a threat consequence of that magnitude should be presented by your god with at least a little evidence for us silly logical humans so that its utter lack of perceptability won't cause millions of people to suffer needlessly forever (as if the shitty immoral rules you xtians think your god wants while we are alive weren't bad enough).
I'm really shitty at giving kudos and rep. That's because I would be inconsistent in remembering to do them, and also I don't really want it to show if any favouritism is happening. Even worse would be inconsistencies causing false favouritisms to show. So, fuck it. Just assume that I've given you some good rep and a number of kudos, and everyone should be happy...
