Judgment Day

>he thinks he can know what happens when one dies

rookie mistake

God shows up for five minutes to condemn everybody to Hell all at once.

Considering Jesus and Paul both believed in an imminent apocalypse in their own lifetime, I wouldnt be too worried

Pro tip: none of this is real.

>>8500579
except the perfectly admirable moral precepts and life advice

>>8500583
Pretty much.

even if the Bible wasn't real, I'd still chose to live by it. It's the key to happiness.

>Can I avoid this by being a dedicated Christian instead for the rest of my life?

Orthodox: Yes
Catholic Dogma: Yes, sincerely confess your sins and you are cool another week.
Luther: No, only faith can save you.
Calvin: No, only God decides who is elect
James: Only by your works of charity can you show your faith and be saved
Jehovah's Witnesses: Only 200,000 will be saved from the throngs on the day of judgement.
Dispensational Evangelicals: The righteous will be granted rapture, and the remaining will face tribulation and the anti-christ, where they must struggle for the redemption or slaughter of the Jews and work for the 1000 year reign of Christ.

Only Orthodox and Catholic count.

Rest are new age hippie bullshit.

Yeah but if he was so was Paul

God was the simplest way early humans could describe how their world was created. And then people told stories around a camp fire. Then the idea spread all over the world. This is where what i like to call the"telephone game" begins. in the telephone game he first person in the line or circle whispers a word or phrase into the ear of the person sitting or standing to their right. The Game Continues. Players whisper the phrase to their neighbors until it reaches the last player in line. The last person then attempts to repeat the phrase only to find out the whole story has changed. So applying this to religion, the story of god got sent all around the world an different variations of the story cropped up. Thats why you get similarities in religion. Take jesus and krishna for example , They both were called the son of god, both were sent to earth in the form of a man,Both were visited at birth by wise men and shepherds, guided by a star. i could go , there are a ton more similarities but you guys can look it up yourselves. To wrap it up god is basically a story

Why are you doing this? Why do you think this is funny? It's nothing to do with literature. It's just you thinking you're better than other people.
