Hey Atheist

[KingOrfeo]

What if you're wrong?

Are you truly prepared to pay the price?

How do you even know there's a price or what it is? The existence of God implies nothing about judgment or the afterlife. It does not even imply that God cares what we do or what we believe. And if he does, we have no way of knowing whether he wants us to be Christians or Muslims or something you never heard of.

See Pascal's Wager.

I'm not an Atheist, but I am agnostic.

As far as I'm concerned most Gods are tyrants and if I end up dead and facing them and nothing to lose...it's rebellion time.

I got your back. I'd like to put in advance waivers for Aphrodite and Ares however and possibly Thor if he can get his hands on the Mead from Valhalla.

I'm not afraid of God and if he/she/it can't bother to let me know what the hell's going on, I'm going to hold a grudge. Sucky way to run a Universe. Plus...what the fuck is going on with the migraine thing?

*cracks knuckles*

If I'm in hell, I'll break out.

What you have to lose is what is right. There's suffering on the Earth and I don't buy the "mysterious ways" bullshit.

If God or Gods do this, they're sadistic doody heads. Someone should say so.

I don't know about that, Reci. I think Priapus and Aphrodite might be absolutely fab gods to hang out with!

I'm not holding a grudge, I don't much care that he started a universe and wandered away. He might have done it by accident. Ever stop to think what if all those video games you play are actual worlds and every time you fail to save the world that thousands are left to suffer? Or maybe that when you felt all creative and started writing a story that you never finished or played Sim City that you might be God and you just wandered away leaving them to their fate?

I figure it's nothing personal, but if he sends me to hell for not kissing his ass that's a problem. One I will rectify the only way I know how. With my twin hammers of justice!

On a related vein, this movie rocked the house. I can't wait for the sequel.

I'm not holding a grudge while mortal, because it's not worth the internal corrosion risk.

If I die though, and I come face to face with the being that could have prevented a crack baby's suffering?

You bet your ass all that grudge is coming out right there.

 

[Sean Renaud]

Maybe he thought it was funny. Have you seen the things you do in Fable to earn your horns?

Oh yeah. I earned my horns and the flies circling my head.

 

[ivantheterrible]

maybe it's all more bhudists type situation. or native american. no punishment. just is.

 

[Sean Renaud]

That was hard work! You practically had to drown sack fulls of adorable fluffy puppies for no reason at all! MAybe gods like that, and like WWII was just what he had to do to get the bad ending.

If God didn't want me to steal he wouldn't have given me the control button!

Damn right! He's an irresponsible parent!

that's the one i was quoting.

I always thought that the Garden's tree was the worst parenting method ever.

"Now you can stay here, but you must worship me, and there's this thing you can't touch in the middle of everything and it's awesome. I'm leaving now."

If I did that with my kids I'd be in jail.

Seeing how this was about six thousand years before Lord of the Flies was written it's possible that God hadn't figured out yet how terrible a plan it is to leave kids unguarded for long stretches of time.

Granted, but you'd think he'd say "I'm sorry about that, here, maybe I was too harsh. You should probably be allowed to know some stuff and I was a little too harsh about the childbirth in pain thing."

Instead? Flood.

When I die, it will be the same as before I was born..... nothing.
And I didn't care then.

 

[Wat_Tyler]

I love watching some of you squirm around with a conception of God. Here's a hint: He ain't nothing like Santa Claus, and there ain't no Tooth Fairy or Easter Bunny, either.


If Man could understand God, then God wouldn't be very God-like, now would he? Another hint: the Bible was written by men, so it's a version of Man's understanding, and it's going to have some "issues". Same for all other "sacred texts".


God isn't "out there". He's likely in the last place most of you, or Mankind, will ever look. And He doesn't meddle in things that are Man's Will.


Just a thought . . . .

Like you never unleashed aliens on your poor sim citizens just because you'd gotten bored of being so damn successful. Or lit the house on fire after deleting the doors, or tricked them into the pool and erased the ladders.

Or am I the only one who delights in that kind of behavior?

That's pretty much my favorite outcome and the one I'm hoping comes true.
