Accountability.
That you will one day stand in judgement.
That you will be weighed measured and found wanting.

I'm better and more moral than your God. So yes, if I should find myself in the afterlife, He will stand in judgment and be held accountable for His failings. 
You said more moral...
That like saying I'm more giggy or more fly than you are.. Because these words like yours are completely meaningless outside the soceity and time they are used.
Good luck in your role reversal.

Oh, we have here a moral relativist Christian! That's something you don't see every day!

There is no meaning to life or any deep meaning.
You the person have to give your life your own life meaning.
There is no divine place were we go when we die we just won't exist.
Again the meaning of life is only your to interpret there is no destiny but an illusion of free will.
"I know what scares you! It's what scares me! That my life has no meaning! Aaargh!"
lol 
Actually I think what scares dyresand is grammar. Not that mine is great
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.

That's actually not that hard. You just have to refrain from stoning people at sight, ripping pregnant women open or from forcing your buddies to perform mock executions on their sons, like he did with Abraham. That should be enough for starters.

you know whats funny because this is true with other religions.
people are always ready to die to get somewhere and the reality of islam and
and muslim faith they would gladly kill themselves with others to get to heaven.
in general religion teaches you to devalue your own life because you live forever and
your going either to a heaven or b hell. i don't know being alive forever into either of those
places none of them seem any pleasant.

Exactly. I didn't even mean to imply that I'm particularly moral, or even above average. Not committing genocide is enough. Not condemning millions of children to horrible deaths - been there, done that... I don't even demand that people abandon their families to join my cult like Jesus.

The only way to not be held accountable is to appease every god there is.

Who is frightened of oblivion? I am accountable to a lot of people, thats what society should do. I am not afraid of it. I think it is well put though that in the end we just dont exist. I am not scared of that or accountability

how is anyone really accountable if god knows before hand who is or who isn't going to hell. he already knows so whats the point if you are a terrible person and god knows what you are going to do why not just jump off a bridge or i don't know make some really difficult changes to your life. even god would do things to keep that person on track to go to hell. if god is real he gives us to much because reality is hard enough as it is and for him to throw another challenge to challenge peoples faiths he is really doing more to hurt those people than help.
