Ah Pascal's wager again.

What if a God exists but it's not Jesus?
What if it is Jesus, but he only allows critical thinkers and skeptics into heaven?
What if a God exists that doesn't offer an afterlife?
What if a God exists that offers reincarnation into this life?
The possibilities are endless, and that's why Pascal's wager doesn't work.

What if the God of Islam is the one? We're both as shafted as eachother in that case.
Billions of Muslims think that Jesus existed, but don't think that he was crucified or resurrected.
Are billions of Muslims wrong?
Was Jesus just a high ranking prophet like Muhammad?
Not the son of God.....
Jesus didn't marry a 6 year old and have sex with her when she turned 9. He's nothing like Muhammad

What if Jesus is the Son of God and you never accept him?

If it's not Jesus then who? Elephants and cows?
A God that has a pedophile for a prophet? Or a God who doesn't care to know us?
What if it is Jesus, but he only allows critical thinkers and skeptics into heaven?
Jesus told us who he allows in Heaven
What if a God exists that doesn't offer an afterlife?
What if a God exists that offers reincarnation into this life?
I'm okay then, I just cease to exist or I come back as a cat and sleep all day

You're not an atheist, you just can't make up your mind

I don't think God would choose a pedophile as his prophet

I was only trying to explain to you why Pascal's wager doesn't work.
I find it interesting that you view other people's religious beliefs as fantasy but your religious views are not.
I'm an agnostic atheist btw. Sometimes stronger leaning towards agnosticism, and sometimes the other way.

I would have said you're agnostic from your posts.
You shouldn't find it strange that people believe in their own religion and don't accept other religions.
I can see why someone would believe as you do, there are so many things that are unknown and the idea of just ceasing to exist when you die doesn't seem that bad.
But I don't believe that way.

If the Bible is true then Islam is false.
