Both disallow praying to false gods and promise eternal salvation or literal hell if you follow/ignore the rules. Also you are ignoring the fact that the right religion could be one noone has made yet, with a god you haven't heard about. There are literal infinite possibilities so the odds of you choosing the right religion/sets of religions and/or god/s to follow is 0%. Thus the infinite downsides and the infinite upsides cancel out and you end up with pascals wager without the BS: Either you believe in god/s, or you don't. EV is the same in both cases. And that's being generous to religion here since I'm assuming believing in god/s is a free choice instead of the "finite" cost the original wager was about. If I add the same postulate about finite cost to the wager, now modified by the actual probabilities instead of cherry picking what Pascal thought is the "right" religion, believing is a net negative EV and not believing is neutral EV so not believing is the rational choice.

Actually my favourite quote is this: when a religious person does good, you can never be sure why they did it. It could be from their heart, but it could also be to gain favour in their faith; in other words, they only do good in search of gain for themselves. However, when an atheist does good, they don’t believe they have anything to gain from doing so, therefore you know that the only reason they have for doing it is that they truly want to do the right thing.

Not true, with athiests it’s doing good for others attention, not god which is worse

[@neflufv6392]

@@KlausSchwab45 sure bud. No proof of that. Tons of people do kind things just because it’s in their hearts, not out of their own desires. You thinking they couldn’t means that you must believe humans are inherently evil and are only good if they do it for god, and not because god made them inherently good.

[@KlausSchwab45]

@@neflufv6392 That isn’t what I meant, I meant to include sometimes, the reason I didn’t is because you didn’t say “christains do it for attention and gods attention sometimes” you said that without sometimes, so that’s why I didn’t include it. I don’t think humans are inherently evil at all. So again, no proof of what you said either, kind of hypocritical. I hope I explained it right

@@KlausSchwab45 Atheist can do it from being good or just for attention, but that doesn´t mean that theists are diferent, they can make it to please God, from being good or still just for attention from others.

3:42 "THE CHURCH DID A LOT OF GOOD THINGS!111!!!!!1" well for 1. thousands of sexual assault cases the church tried to coverup 2. templars are cool, but the whole mass murder thing and waging wars multiple times isn't, (its only cool when sabaton is playing in the background) 3. burning women alive because they successfully solved 1 times 1 (obvious witchcraft) 4. executions on random people that make the tianamen square protests and executions look like a theme park 5. probably some other stuff

Catholic Church before 1900s:

Him using finite loss and infinite gain all over again was so funny. When me and my cousin played a parkour map on Minecraft, I got lost and he told me that the map is linear. Fast forward to moments where he gets lost and I just throw it right back "The map is linear".

Except for agnostics and technically athiests (but athiests are often assholes who think they are better than everyone else, so rhye suck too) the act of believing in something with no evidence to the point of shaming and killing people is ridiculous.
