If basically any major religion’s god is real, we all lose. They’re all fucking giant assholes.
I’m not worshiping an asshole… unless its attached to someone hot.
What’s wrong with Ganesh? He’s a pretty cool guy
unless the religions are gatekeeping the real knowledge behind their dogma and twisting it, so they can gain more secular power.
What if God is real, but you believed in the wrong one and God despises incorrect belief more than non-belief?
You lose.
What if after you die you find out the demiurge is real and you failed to achieve gnosis, so you have to go back to the prison that is this reality?
You lose.
If god is real, he has a lot to answer for.
The platypus. Seriously, wtf?
Australia was his animal testing ground. It was never meant to make it into production.
Everyone has a testing
environmentcontinent. Some people are fortunate enough to also have a separate productionenvironmentcontinent.Australia is Earth’s forgotten Test Branch server that is just still running … one day, the other servers got too full, so they had to hastily bring it back into service.
both AUSTRALIA and south america, both continents were isolated for a long time so they both developed unique species. Marsupial has its likely origins in South america actually, since its the other major continent with marsupials, they also have things like sprassadonts(marsupial like), and liptoterns
If god is real, he very likely doesn’t give a shit about humans. If you interviewed him, he’d say that all of that stuff you attribute to him was obviously made up by humans.
If God is real then he’s basically a kid with an ant farm and magnifying glass.
Best case scenario is that this is his version of The Sims.
Also:
“If there is a God, he will have to beg my forgiveness.”

god seems pretty wrathful and amoral towards mortals, even uses ANGELS to do his dirty work.

The way I figure it, if God exists he gave me a reasoning mind and provided absolutely no reasonable evidence of his existence. If he has a problem with me drawing the inevitable conclusion from that then fuck 'im.
If god is real im going to try and lull him for creating a world with such evil happening to innocent people.
Any god who creates a place where babies are raped and murdered deserves to die.
the flying spaghetti monster, would like to hastily clarify, that he didn’t mean to, doesn’t know how to fix it, and is honestly freaking out
uhh, if you have any tips, give them to me, r’amen
Plus if this is the world he made he’s demiurge anyways and fuck that guy.
If you look at it from God’s perspective, assuming he exists, you have all of these groups of people who claim to worship him, and the biggest ones all have different holy books, and all of those holy books are flawed. They’re even self-contradictory. I think God would be offended if people thought he was responsible for those piles of trash.
On the other hand, if God created our cosmos, surely he’d at least approve of people trying to understand it compared to boring people who ignore the world and just chant the same things over and over.
This is why I refer to myself as agnostic instead of atheist. I do not see an evidence of God as stated in the Bible, Torah, Koran or such religions. However I cannot prove that a different type of God does not exist. Something - called God - could be responsible for the beginning of everything. I don’t see that God as being too concerned about humans and what they do or don’t do. God and religion are not the same thing. Religions are entirely man made as a societal control mechanisms and abused by leadership greed.
God: >hides<
Also God: how dare you not believe in me with zero proof in the natural world! >tantrum<
Everything is proof of god!
If you understand nothing and refuse to explore and learn, that is
No see you don’t understand:
I occasionally hear voices in my head that I decided to attribute to God, and I also see or hear strange patterns sometimes that I decide are God talking to me in extremely specific and unique ways that no one else would understand, therefore, my moderate and likely worsening schizophrenia is proof that God is real.
Now it is such a bizarrely improbable coincidence that anything so mind-bogglingly useful could have evolved purely by chance that some thinkers have chosen to see it as the final and clinching proof of the non-existence of God.
The argument goes something like this: “I refuse to prove that I exist,” says God, “for proof denies faith, and without faith I am nothing.”
“But,” says Man, “The Babel fish is a dead giveaway, isn’t it? It could not have evolved by chance. It proves you exist, and so therefore, by your own arguments, you don’t. QED.”
“Oh dear,” says God, “I hadn’t thought of that,” and promptly vanishes in a puff of logic.
“Oh, that was easy,” says Man, and for an encore goes on to prove that black is white and gets himself killed on the next zebra crossing.
"Live a good life. If there are gods and they are just, then they will not care how devout you have been, but will welcome you based on the virtues you have lived by. If there are gods, but unjust, then you should not want to worship them. If there are no gods, then you will be gone, but will have lived a noble life that will live on in the memories of your loved ones.”
― Marcus Aurelius
Wow that’s way older than I realized!
I know right? Can’t believe it’s been 26 years since the Gladiator movie came out!!

Hello Pascal’s wager, may I introduce you to Roko’s basilisk.
Jesus, don’t make more of them. There’s optimistically like a 50% chance that makes them realize how stupid the argument is, the rest start pissing themselves over the AI god.
It’s worse. I like this one, Galileo’s basilisk. It’s a very interesting read, and doesn’t take itself seriously.
Worm fight, worm fight! That was a nice read.
It’s better to share this one… you know, just in case
Pascal’s wager has always been one of the more absurd arguments that collapses upon minor thought.
worrying about a christian god compared to human history is like caring about your confederate heritage
Pascal wager can be so easily thrown back…
« You better pray for forgiveness to the Christian god before dying… just to be sure! »
Ok… but what if the Hindus were right all along and I just damned myself?! There’s a whole lot more Hindus… I’m getting better odds by renouncing the Christian god instead
There’s a whole lot more Hindus…
Except there are a multitude of different Christian denominations, all disagreeing with each other.
As opposed to monolithic Hindus?
“You lose” is such a weird thing to say. It’s implying this is an issue to win or lose on. Instead of you know living a virtuous life. Nope. It’s sides that win or lose.
Right? My religion tortures you for not being on our side I rather choose nothing than worship that kind of evil.
These pricks get off on seeing others suffer, while proclaiming to covet the virtues of a book they’ve never read.
But would either of you lose really. If god was real, and he punished you for not believing in him, is he the good guy or the bad guy. Sounds like the later. Which implies there is another who will reward you for just being a good person in general. So you wouldn’t lose.
The other option that is more likely if you assume god is omnipotent is that all of the religions are made up by humans. Same with all the rules. A real omnipotent god wouldn’t punish his own creation for doing what he created them to do. So again you don’t lose.
A real omnipotent god wouldn’t punish his own creation for doing what he created them to do
If you ever played a sims or rollercoaster game you know this ain’t true.
Yeah, well…
MY religion says if you don’t give me $20,000 you’ll spend forever swimming through a pool of glass shards and lemon juice. Better be on the safe side - what if I’m right?
I’d like to subscribe to your Creative Eternal Tortures newsletter.
It too, is a creative torture.
Well, my religion says if you give Mycodesuck money you’ll spend eternity listen to political speeches. Enjoy the dilema.
I doubt that, as my variant of that religion says 20000 pounds.
my variant says 20,000 tacos
Here’s $30,000 just in case. Thanks for the warning!
… Should’ve asked for more to start.
A fellow mormon?
Fuck me, Sam What are the odds? That of history's endless parade of gods That the god you just happened to be taught to believe in Is the actual one, and he digs on healing?- Tim Minchin, “Thank You God”
