This isn't that original a question, I suppose, but turn-about is fair play. I keep hearing the same dumb questions out of Godders ("What happens to morality when they disprove God?" and "What if God was proven to exist?"), so what the hell. First read the post, "Ok.....So you killed off Religion"
Question: How would you feel/react if it was proven, with 100% absolute certainty, that God does NOT exist?
a) Overjoyed! That would mean I could rape and steal and murder at will.
b) Devastated. It would render life meaningless.
c) Unaffected. I would never, under any circumstances whatever, believe there was no God, no matter what undeniable evidence was presented.
If a), you realize you could also refrain from raping and stealing and murdering, too, right? I mean, I don't do any of that and I'm an atheist.
If b), makes you wonder why you believe in the first place, doesn't it?
If c), then how do you differ from a person who lives in an alley and talks to Dumpsters?
