quote:
I guess the reason Christians evangelize so much is this: If athiesm is true, when a Christian dies nothing happens. But unfortunately for the athiest, if there is a God you might not go where you would want to go.
This argument never fails to puzzle me. There are so many religions in the world. Yet the standard answer is "if there is a god and you're an atheist, you're going to hell because you're not a christian... because that's what God would like"
Here's a hypothetical for you: if Atheism is true when a Christian dies nothing happens. If there is a God who happens to hate Christianity, he's going to punish the Christian more than the atheist. Or there is a God who loves Llamas and everyone who owned a Llama at the time of their death gets into heaven and everyone who didn't goes to a bar somewhere in Orlando, Florida where they try on shoes for eternity and sip weak rum and cokes.
