how would you rather live?
would you rather live like there is a God and find out that there sin't one, or live like there isn't a God and find out that there is one? for me it's the first one. if i find out that there isn't a God i've lost nothing in my life. but if i live my life believing that there isn't a God and i found out that there is one i go to hell and wish i'd believed when i had the chance. wouldn't you?

Live as though the is a God, and there is! If I'm wrong than no harm, no foul!
If I'm right and lived as though there isn't a God, and there is, I'm the one who will suffer for my non-belief
God bless!

I'd rather believe there isn't one and find out there is.
Evidence shows there isn't, if you believe there is and find out there isn't, you've lost the use of evidence in your life.
No, if I went to Hell I wouldn't wish I'd believed. I'd wish God was slightly less retarded than to send people to Hell for not believing in him.
But come on, if there is a God do you really think he'd send me to Hell for not believing in him?
Much more likely he'll send you to Hell for making this question that implies he is.

As has been mentioned, even Pascal ended up giving up on that wager.
What if your following the wrong god?
What if that god would rather you not believe in him than worship a false god?
There are many more faults but i can't be bothered to type them

i would rather live my life like there is a God, but i know that there is a God. i know that when i go to heaven, i will meet God face to face. if i lived my life like there wasn't a God, i don't know where i'd be right right now.

I don't believe in God and I have no problem living without one. Sorry to disappoint you.
If you are going to live like there is one, which one will you choose? Which one has the best chance of being the "right" one and how do you reach that conclusion?

I would rather live my life helping my fellow man instead of trying to fool an omniscient deity of which there is no evidence with a false conversion.
I choose not to blindly follow without evidence and I choose not to worship a deity as "loving" out of fear of eternal torment.
Bartender- when you get a chance, Pascal is buying this round.

By your logic the only reason that you believe in god is the off chance that you may go to hell. How shallow.

I'd rather live my life based on my ethics and if I was confronted by a cloud fairy who asked why I didn't believe in him I'd answer "... I lived far better than your followers did.. send me to hell and I know your an as shole just like your followers..."

god isnt real...end of. it's a bit farfetched isnt it...heaven and hell i mean. what form do you take in heaven...what clothes are you wearing, how old are you, if your as old as you are when you die, then what happens if you die when your 109 years old, or if you die at birth...what happens if youve been religeous all your life and then go and kill someone. does it work on a points system?...is hitler in hell? despite the millions he saved from unemployment but he also ordered the killing of millions of jews, but surely you cant call a difference between ordering killings and saving lives. in my opinion when we die, we either evolve, or begin a new life in a continuous cycle.

live like there is a God, even if there isn't. Living like there is a God to me is treating everyone, including myself with love and respect. I think living a forgiving, loving, hopeful life will lead to happiness. What more could you want??
