Kinda like the young children of abusive parents. . .
Or the abused wife who thinks she deserves it. . .
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god. If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.

Only if you consider his twisted, psychotic mind to be capable of good reasoning, which I do not.

But only some are getting to heaven, because only some believe he even existed.

There were some Jewish converts in the Roman empire and I strongly suspect that one of them took the best of Hillel and combined his teaching with different popular religions to come up with what the creator thought would be a better religion.
How do you support this opinion?

I seem to have heard that the bible doesn't teach the trinity at all, so I'm skeptical of both claims. If it's all beyond Human understanding, it's useless nonsense.
Why is useless if it is beyond human understanding? Do you not accept anything that is beyond your understanding?

Since you believe in the trinity, he didn't die at all. Period.
No matter how vigorous you do the tap dance around that issue. In your belief, all three are god, the same god, an eternal almighty god. That being cannot die even if it throws away a fleshy body it had chosen to inhabitate for a little while.

Especially since heaven in the non-fleshy body is supposed to be soooo much better.
Oh except for that embarrassing fact that so many early Christians believed that it is that fleshy body that goes to heaven. Thus the people coming out of their graves, and Jesus' marks of crucifixion after resurrection. And thus the churches aversion to cremation, the fact that the body decomposes not withstanding.
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god. If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.

Isn't it funny how three things are the same god until the plot necessitates that they're actually unique and separate entities....

Why does he hate people born in the wrong country again? Never seem to get an answer to this one.

Which is weird, because sex is peachy keen, and I'd think that a lot of people's idea of paradise would have a fair amount of sex in it.
