    An Interesting Discussion on Pascal's Wager

    Yes, my Muslim friend also made me think. It is really more rational to believe in Allah, than not. For if you are wrong, you will go to Hell, while if you are right you will have the jackpot. Right? It is truly mind boggling that people waste their time on that one, forgetting that it is...

    Why only criticize christianity?

    I did not say that this default equally deserved amount of respect must be bigger than zero. Ciao - viole

    Why would God's ultimate power come with ultimate responsibility?

    Let me ask you this: if you are hungry and I present you two possible things to eat: 1) Italian Pizza Margherita 2) The rotting cadaver of a bird What would you choose? You have free will. But don't you feel something in your biology that actually strongly affect the odds of your choice? And...

    Why exactly is Satan bad?

    I am sure you are right. but how do you know your entire belief system is not based on one of them? Ciao - viole

    Why exactly is Satan bad?

    Are you sure it was created in a lab? I think it was too, but I have no evidence of that, and I give priority to evidence, or lack thereof, before I make any statement. So, I presume you are also one of those who chickened out, when vaccination was available. So, if you believe in, say, the...

    Why exactly is Satan bad?

    Do you think Covid was an invented pathogen? My main point is very simple. Christianity could be an invention of Satan to get you damned. Really? which ones? For sure His Messiah status is highly controversial among people sharing that same segment of prophecy. So, my case stand. It is...

    My dear theists and atheists. Why ?

    Because debating one of the theories about the existence of the universe is a worthy thing to do. That is, ultimately, a philosophical/rational exercise. Ergo, big fun. For the atheist, at least. Ciao - viole

    Why does being pro-life tend to be associated with being religious?

    Of course not. Actually, if Christians were logically consistent in their belief, they should welcome the premature termination of innocents. But in general it is easy to prove that what you call "human beings" is a bit loaded. We all know that a two hours old blastocyst does not have the same...

    atheists and agnostics which religion do you like best?

    That is like asking a vegetarian what kind of meat she prefers. Ciao - viole

    Was you baptised as a child?

    Yes. That is one of the three times tops a Swede look at the inside of a church. Two, actually, since the third is when she is in a coffin, and cannot see a lot. I am still a member. Ciao - viole

    Why did you leave christianity?

    Because I realized it made no rational sense. The entire salvation thing, for instance, is a logical train wreck. Ciao - viole

    Why would God's ultimate power come with ultimate responsibility?

    Well, that is correct, if God is defined as perfectly moral. Therefore, if God is perfectly moral, then the fact that He allows evil can only be logically explained by concluding that what looks like evil, is not evil. God let apparently bad things to happen, because it is for the common good...

    Why only criticize christianity?

    All religions deserve the same amount of intellectual respect. Equally. I am a strong believer of that. Ciao - viole

    Why exactly is Satan bad?

    OK. What is so great in it? Yeah. well, That is what a snake oil salesmen would say. Make up the disease, and sell its cure. A trick as old as humanity. But while this might deserve its own thread, it does not address my main point. There has been a clear sort of cut from the traditional...

    Evolution of what?

    And what differences would that be? Ciao - viole

    Why do christianity get so much hate?

    If Christians were like believers in garden fairies, without any pretense of affecting other people's lives, then nobody would care. the problem starts when said Christians insist on things like: - What we women do with our bodies, and possible embryos in it - What people can or cannot decide...

    Why exactly is Satan bad?

    Is that a yes? is that a rebuttal? Well, you did, maybe. Yes. I am sure Satan used that too. Well, it is weird, right? Why not? Not sure what you mean here. You mean that segment you share with Judaism? Well, the Jews do not agree with you. They mostly think that your Jesus, Jeshua, or...

    Why exactly is Satan bad?

    Who? Satan? To the simple fact that you cannot possibly know whether Yeshua is not the product of Satan to have you all damned. If I were Satan, that is exactly what I would have done. Brilliant, innit? For sure the God of the NT looks vastly different from the God of the OT. It is just in...

    Why exactly is Satan bad?

    How do you know? That is exactly what Satan wants to do. That it really looks it is the truth. By the way, my Jewish friend, agrees with me. And he shares the same segment of Scriptures with you. And that fact alone, sets very low upper bounds on the credibility of your sacred Books. Well, I...
