They just can't prove he exists. 
Oh, and they lie about their qualifications. I'm sure your saviour approves of that.

I love Jesus too, but it's more like the love between a man and a fine cuban cigar, as opposed to the love between a man a woman.
What would you do for Jesus, Grace?

But they fear God. Some good loving deity you have to be terminally afraid of being sent to Hell.
Christian apologetics is the art of rolling a dog turd in sugar and selling it as a donut.

Apparently fear doesn't mean fear( to be scared) it means obey... just like hate doesn't mean loathe... it just means to love less

If you want to use Pascal's wager, you have to apply it evenly to all possibilities. Would it not be safer with respect to Islam to believe in Islam?
Then you realize that Pascal's wager is utterly useless. It is no more likely to lead you to any real conclusion whatsoever.

Hey, it's the chart I posted way back at the beginning of the thread, that the OP ignored! 
Maybe this time we'll get a (terrible, arrogant) answer

ThebeardedDude joined after you made your post so he probably can't be expected to know that.
His version is bigger and more readable than yours though. Deserves some credit.

Oh, no no, I wasn't admonishing him or anything. I was drawing attention to it so the OP looks even worse than he already does.
