You should see it this way: Look at our world. Look at the bad things. Look at the horrific things. God lets all those things happen AND he wants his dick sucked as if he doing jack shit is a good thing.
Go to hell. Be a rebel. Be proud of it.

You don't understand, all that suffering and all those dead babies are part of His plaaaaaaan. How can you even have morals without believing in god, please excuse the piles of dead babies.
Dead babies?
"God works in mysterious ways."
"Trust God's plan."
"Everything happens for a reason."
"You have to have faith."
"We should pray."
"He is testing our faith, like the book of Job."
These are the bullshit answers they give us because they don't really have an answer.
And when something good happens what do they say?
"God is good!"
"Praise the Lord!"
Look, believe in God all you want but when someone pisses on you, don't call it rain.
Have a meaningful conversation of how an all powerful, good God can allow so much suffering. Either he isn't good or he isn't powerful.
Yeah, God is kinda an asshole, and if hes not, and hes worried about our opinions of him he really needs to work on his messaging and explaining why stuff has to be so shitty. Being God and all I imagine that isn't beyond his abilities...
You know, assuming he existed...
God has some of the worst fucking representatives. I don't want to be in a heaven with those assholes
The old Pascal's Wager. That's why I believe in every religion and none at the same time. I have to cover my bases.
My variant is "any god who requires me to suck his cock to get to the good place is a giant dick, undeserving of praise nor respect. Any god I'd bother to worship wouldn't care if I did or not"
Pascal's Roulette Wheel.
Sure, blame the atheism and conveniently forget about all the butt stuff.
When the Christian friend convinces you into religion, but it turns out God hates belief in false gods more than non-belief (you picked the wrong religion).
Just pull the ole', "Look! A distraction!" and disappear into the billions-strong crowd stuck in the same boat.
this is exactly my little nagging worry...
Don't worry. There are infinite potential Gods you could be angering no matter which choice you make.
i didnt know a sentance could both be that comforting and that unnerving at once
I’m sure that shit afterward will be just like the shit that came before. You made it through twenty billion years of nothing just fine, you’ll be able to do it again. No bills, no student loans, no hours taking forever, your back doesn’t feel like that when you stand up.
Just become an atheist and anger them all at the same time.
Some of them might like that
why would the region based on a 2000 year old doomsday prophet be real, but the one based on the moon being your mom be wrong? think about it.
What if the moon was your car and Jupiter was your hairbrush?
No worry, as a very practicing Christian with friends in different traditions, I can say nobody but a few extremists (evangelicals, radical islamists, …) believes that being atheist prevent you to be saved.
Needing to differentiate yourself from bad Christians is the problem. No matter how tolerant you are, you still make decisions based on magic. Shits insane.
You can't show a no-God but I can show you spaghetti.
Checkmate.

Okay, bro.
Yup. You're a "good" Christian alright.
Thank you! I'm so relieved.
Wow, all Islamists are bad, but only evangelicals are bad in christianity? Dude, you be predigest.

Islamist ≠ Muslim. Here a link which explains the difference.
And colloquially, the difference is even greater, at least in French, my mother tongue. Two of my best friends are a Muslim couple, they are the most regular players of my DnD table. Some times we stop our games for them to pray. They are devout Muslims, but not islamists.
Then why not make the distinction as extremist Muslims since you know most people get it wrong?
I don't think most people get it wrong. In fact you're the first one I meet, both IRL and on the Internet, who thinks that Islamist = Muslim. But it may be because English is not my mother tongue, maybe it's clearer in French than in English. If it's the case, I'm sorry for my mistake (I added a precision to correct it).
