Me: So Christians; do you believe Jesus paid for everyone's sins?
Christians: Yes.
Me: So I automatically go to heaven?
Christians: Yes.
Me: So why do I have to be Christain? I'm going to heaven no matter what.
Christians: You only go to heaven if you believe in God and Jesus.
Me: You believe in God and Jesus and you believe when you die, you will go to heaven?
Christians: Yes.
Me: And you believe living in heaven is unimaginably better than life here?
Christians: Yes.
Me: And Jesus paid for all of your sins, so because you believe in him, you get to go to heaven when you die (even if you commit a crime or sin as bad as murder)?
Christians: Yes.
Me: I (as an atheist) don't want you to do this, but what's stopping you from committing suicide? You are going to heaven if you commit suicide because you would die. If you believe suicide is a sin, Jesus paid for that sin, because according to you, he paid for all sins.
Christians: He only pays for repented sins.
Me: Hold on now. Your god will forgive a murderer or a child rapist that genuinely repents before he dies, but he won't forgive a suicidal person that repents after death? What about a genuine atheist that doesn't think there is a god and repents (but after death)?
This is the difference between being sheep smart and being lion smart; the person with sheep smarts repeats what they've heard (and their memory is good, but their critical thinking skills suck). The lion smart person has more critical thinking; if the idea makes sense; then they accept it. Otherwise, they try and figure out a rationale and moral response to it.
If you believe a pre death repentant murderer deserves the right to heaven more than a post death repentant atheist, I do not like that morality at all and I fail to see how any critical thinker would disagree with me on at least that.
It's not pro-life, it's not pro law and order, it's not pro victimless liberty, and it's anti free thinking to believe a murderer should get treated better than an atheist simply because they repented.
But it's faith; and you can't challenge faith and expect people to change their minds no matter how good your argument is.
