Religion

When I was younger, my family jumped around from view to view (everything Eastern Mysticism to Judiasm to Christianity) and it basically taught me to be extremely shrewd with holding your beliefs in higher regard than others.

Today, I have never been more comfortable with being a Deist, tinkering on the term "Christian Deist". I've considered atheism many times--and indeed, many people think that I am one, given how I talk in my classes--but it's just not for me. I've always naturally gravitated towards having humility about the unknown, and when I've weighed the points against one another, those in favor of a god have made more sense to me.

Basically, whenever we have religious discussions in my classes, I find myself in that highly uncomfortable scenario where I roll my eyes whenever theists talk, then facepalm whenever atheists respond.

So the only reason you are a Christian is Pascal's wager? I don't think God would be fooled a mercenary belief made just for your reward. That is without mentioning that Pascal's wager is a false dichotomy.

If you are going to be a Christian it needs to be for the love of God, if you are only in it for the reward you will not get the reward.

I would answer you but you have a pattern of calling things you don't understand "stupid" and I don't want to encourage your bad habit.

Why do you care what I think of your beliefs?

I'm just asking what they are. You just sound like you're ashamed.

Because God's existence makes sense of some things that dont make sense without him...
