@BluntSm0ker The Abrahamic God? Which one are you talking about? There鈥檚 so many.

@AnonymousJSS I think he's saying we don't know if any God exists from any religion. I ain't taking my chances tho 馃ぃ I'd rather be like "sorry bro" and not lose anything lol

@Lucyy @BluntSm0ker either of you ever heard of pascals wager? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pascal%27s_wager I'll give you a simple explanation if preferred too

@Zaxel I haven't, but it makes sense lol. You lose more one way than the other. I'm not actually worried about a meme tho. Maybe if I killed someone馃敟馃憖

@Zaxel Yeah, but Pascal's Wager only accounts for two of infinity possibilities. What if in reality, Christians suffer forever and non-Christians get eternal bliss? What if some alien religion is right and we're all fucked? As far as unfalsifiable afterlives go, you're rollin' the dice no matter what you do, so you might as well not worry about it.

@Lucyy @BlueVeins the message was, pascal's wager is inherently flawed lol. a god that is omniscient will know if you're faking it, so the plan to pretend to believe because the reward is outsized relative to the penalty, would never really work. basically, you're either all in or youre not just like you said :D @BluntSm0ker

@BluntSm0ker That鈥檚 different then. The post mentions the Bible.

@BluntSm0ker Pascal's Wager basically just states that it's better to be a Christian when the Christian god exists than to be an atheist when the Christian does exist. You know, because of the whole afterlife thing (which you reject). It's kind of a silly argument for a variety of reasons.

@BluntSm0ker thats not the point of pascals wager lol, its a joke at this point because you can't pretend to believe. just also fooling yourself into saying you believe doesnt work either because an omniscient god would always know if thats the case too. try reading 'the god delusion'
