Re: Religion is ethics for stupid people
[ QUOTE ]
I am going to answer this the way it needs to be answered. I AM an intelligent person, and the possibility of Hell is EXACTLY what keeps me from killing. And if there is no other reason to keep YOU from killing this is a good enough one. In gambling terms if there is a .000000000000001% chance of hell, and if you go there you are looking at serving .000000000000000001% multiplied by an infinite amount of time. You are clearly getting the correct odds to not kill as long as you see eternity in flames as a -. Sorry to all the geniuses but even YOU are getting laid the right price!!!!!!! However I'm not saying that if there was ABSOLUTELY no hell I would kill EVERYONE. Just drug dealers, murderers, rapists (at least of my immediate family), and used car dealers. Now that I have cleared this up for EVERYONE, go drop an opinion on my IQ of top players thread. As I don't have an ABSOLUTE answer in that as I do in this. [/ QUOTE ] Your argument is flawed for the same reasons that Pascal's wager is flawed. Do you avoid going to hell by following the moral code of christianity, judaism, hinduism, or how about an obscure pagan conception of hell from a few millenia ago? How about the conception of hell of crazy Steve, who lives down the street? After all, there is a .0000000000000000001% chance he is telling the truth that you need to pull off all of your toenails to avoid going to hell. |
