Can you describe the torture they'd have to use to get you go "believe"?

I'm not sure quite how much an individuals pain threshold has to do with their belief system. The avoidance of torture is going to make me pay lip service to your chosen deity, but isn't belief. The whole issue of enforced conversion was based on the desire of the church heads to attract new income streams. The actual converters, by contrast, were motivated by the cynical promises of heavenly rewards for their conversions. A very profitable fraud perpetrated by the church controllers.

It is still practiced today, but tends to be more about psychodynamics than the blood curdling means of centuries past

Simple. Remove the thinking part of my brain surgically.

But given the choice, I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy. (You've got to say that fast to hear how it works.)

There is no amount of torture that would make me believe. In fact, the torture itself would reinforce my belief that there is no god. The "loving" god that most christians believe in would not allow humans to perpetrate that kind of evil on one another.

Just the threat of violence. No point in getting hurt for it, and then 'converting' later when they found my physical breaking point. It's just pragmatic to lie for the time being.

But that doesn't mean I wouldn't get them back later...

I never figured why Christians never try to recruit people by just setting a good example and showing by their actions, that Christianity makes them happy.

I could never really "believe" in God.. not without evidence. But I suspect I'd just say I did if I was put in that situation.

well there's nothing they could do that would actually make me believe unless my mind got broken.

However I'm certainly not above paying lip service to a nutter who wants to kill me for a retarded reason

Showing me an atheist would have worked. Does that help? lol Romans 1:28 God Bless

NON but for islam everything

Nothing.
