What would you say to the Almight?

One normal day, Armageddon arrives, and amidst the fireballs and atomic blasts you realise that you don't believe in God.

As an atheist/agnostic, you find yourself standing before God. Apparently, his efforts to appear non-existant had you fooled, and unless you can tell him why not, he is going to send you to Hell.

What would you say to God, if he allowed you a few minutes to sway him?

what evidence you depend on ?

Five decades of knowledge seeking. Many many years of contemplative practice and self inquiry.

Only you can do that for yourself.

You have to 'do the experiment'.

I was just thinking I need more Allah in my days, less of my heathen nonesense.

If I ever do find myself at the pearly gates, I'm going to be rightiously ticked off, and not just because I was wrong. If I show up in the afterlife and find out there's an all-powerful being with some master plan pulling strings on earth, there's a good chance I'm going to be riding the express train to hell after getting my two cents in. If there does turn out to have been a God, the guy (thing) is a major-league asshole. The plague, the AIDS epidemic,the Holocaust, Rosie O'Donnel, where was God for all of this? If it turns out he was laughing, I'm going to try to hit him.

That? No you're taking it out of context.

My understanding of Atheism, is rejection of god. No matter what.

Your understanding seems a bit narrow. "No matter what" is no more valid from an atheist perspective than it is from a theist perspective.

I would try the Chewbacca defense.

Even if that did work (and it always worked for Johnny Cochran), I'd ask either for the nearest elevator to hell, or better yet, to be removed from existence entirely. I would find in both heaven and hell a tyrannical kingdom (hell only being better because it was created to challenge God's absolute power), so I would honestly prefer to be destroyed entirely. We all know this situation will never actually come to pass though.

Why would I want to sway him? It's not my job to justify myself to him. It's his job to justify himself to me. If he pulls the "I am going to destroy you because you don't love me", then....that just proves my original point, that he is unworthy of worship, and all his crap about how he loves us and forgives us is bullshit. I'd rather burn with the "sinners" than spend all eternity kissing his ass. And the company would be better down there too.

Give me a edited break. The whole point of debating religious philosophy is that we're allowed to call bull bull. And that goes double in the A Room: if we can't even call Christianity "bull" in the A Room, where can we do it? Anybody who is worried about getting their little feelings hurt should have stayed the edited out for content out in the first place.
