You believe in an unknown deity and you make that thing take priority over your own life. It's like you're saying you are not as good as an invisible sky daddy and you should assume the position of being down on your knees.
For what, exactly? Some promise of an afterlife that doesn't really offer any guarantee since it comes from a book written by men who were only sheep herders?
I am so fortunate that I don't subscribe to that nonsense. I can live my life knowing I'm not trying to please some made up character that I will never see. Fuck all that noise.
We desire paradise only because the sustenance of God is closely tied to God, and because it's a higher place closer to him, and it's an endlessly journey to him.
If paradise was a place far from him and hell was a place close to him, I would choose the latter no matter what pain.
God is the Greatest, he is God, he is the One who is to be treasured above all.
You choose your god, I submit to the only true God.
