To Luke MC:
As I have mentioned already, even most Pastors will tell you to read the bible within the context.
Wo Demonura:
"The good is not done, people have done the bare ammount required to avoid immediate punishment (which only a lazy god would go with, surely a god can tell that you do not really deserve heaven, your only pretending). And every chance the person gets they will do more evil, or avoid doing good unless they specifically know they will be rewarded for it. It only promotes extremes."
The bottom line? There will be more good done, even if it is a little more.
To me, what bothers me or that I am concerned about is that the 'evil' guys do less bad deeds.
Examples of people refraining from bad deeds:
Already mentioned, the many many drug addicts and crimminals who have turned their lives around because they converted to Christianity from Atheism. Google it if you want.
Examples of people doing more good deeds:
Many Orphanages, old folks homes, halfway houses built by the Churches. Given this current age and time, if Atheists had the money they are more likely to spend it on themselves.
What I have experienced in life too.
I summarise by me as well as the general opinion, because if it were not so, Atheists will not have to keep answering the question' What is there to stop an Atheist from Raping, murder, robbing etc'.
I have lost interest in this and may not reply much thereafter. Increase the number of crimminals in your neighbourhoods(By freeing them of God) if you want, but do not say I have not warned you.
