NO you have NOT OFFENDED ME, your bad use of logic has YES!
If I came up to you and claimed " A magical invisible frog farted a full sized Lamborghini out of its ass"
AT BEST, most believers of any label would argue "So what's wrong with that"? Unfortunately people of all religions when you say boo to them go beyond mere words and use law and violence to squash dissent.
Yes we are opposites. But dont act like if the entire world were 7 billion Muslims suddenly everything would suddenly shit ice cream and puppies.
You like what you believe.
SO THE FUCK WHAT?
You are still in the same boat as Christians and Jews and Hindus and Rastas and Mormons ect ect ect ect ect.
GET IN LINE TAKE A NUMBER.
No it does not lead to a fictional afterlife. That is utter crap. Do you feel that a cockroach has an afterlife? No? Now again, not just you pull this bad logic, Hindus and Buddhist would call that afterlife "reincarnation". Still a stupid gap answer that humans invent to avoid our finite existence.
Our planet is 4 billion years old. There were no god claims or religions 4 billion years ago. Our universe is 14 billion years old. The universe contains 100s of billions of galaxies. Humans OF ALL RELIGIONS are stupid to think this one tiny dot, in a hostile universe gives one shit about the myths or sky heros humans invent for false comfort.
NOW, what you don't get, which most believers don't, is that while reality has bad things in it, it also has good things in it. There is no need to gap fill with old books and fictional beings. Not yours, not any.
Nothing bad will happen to you if you give up on the horrible idea of a god. The good news is that there is no cosmic dictator who will get revenge on you if you realize he is not real. And again, we make the same arguments to Jews and Christians and Hindus and Buddhists ect ect ect ect.
It was understandable back then when humans didn't know any better that they wrote those things and started those clubs. But we have a much better understanding scientifically of what is really going on. That REAL knowledge has helped humans progress and problem solve with things like medicine and the computer you type your responses on.
WE PROMISE there is no hell for you to burn in if you figure out what we have. You can still live a productive life and be a good person and value the ride called life. We still find good in life, we still have emotions, we still feel pain, but we simply do not assign good or bad to magic.
