If I could some how prove to you that there is no god (for the sake of argument) would you act any differently than you do now in your day to day life? ðŸ˜
Originally posted by divegeesterI don't think so. I would follow the golden rule either way. If absolute power corrupts absolutely, then god could be malevolent, and if that is so, one would be heroic to disobey god. To me, the Christian god is clearly malevolent because he let his son suffer on the cross, he would send gays to hell, as well as all who don't believe in him. Not very nice!
If the opposite was proved to you, would you act any differently?

Originally posted by 667joeInteresting. You must be very brave to stand firm on that resolution in the totally reality and face-to-face confrontation with an immense all powerful malevolent being set on your destruction. Personally I'd do whatever it took to be spared the wrath.

Originally posted by epiphinehasWell, obviously there would be no use in prayer since there would be no God there with whom to commune or converse. I can't imagine I would talk with someone I knew wasn't there.
I'd have to say, yes. Definitely.

This question carries with it some very large assumptions.
There is the assumption here that the belief ...[text shortened]... it of reality, the Comforter within me, is not Jesus. But it is Jesus.[/b]

What is the reason then that, if you go by population ratio's, percentage wise, fewer atheists are in jail. Plus, if your theory were true, there would be no Christians committing crimes which is clearly not the case. Some Christians openly bash gays which is a crime, and they do it with biblical justification. Think of the thousands of witches burned a ...[text shortened]... n with atheists such as Thomas Edison, Thomas Paine, Bill Gates, and Abraham Lincoln any time.
