If God manifested in front of you...

[Underscore]

This just occured to me. All you athiests (of which I am one), imagine the situation. One day, God appears in front of you. You arn't drunk, on drugs, just normal. He utterly proves his existance to you, and says that unless you change your sinful ways to follow him, you'll burn in hell for all eternity.

Do you convert to Christianity? Would you give up all your earthly vices in order to avoid damnation?

Personally, I like to think that I wouldn't, most because my ethics don't gell with Christian values. I support free abortions, assisted suicide, casual drug use, casual sex, whatever. Dropping all those would make me feel like too much of a hypocrite, just abandoning them on the spot like that. To be honest though, I'd probably go for a deathbed conversion...see if that would work to avoid getting my ass toasted...

So, what about you lot? Hmm. I suppose this could also pass for religious non-christians out there as well as for athiests.

I'd tell him to fuck off. I'd rather spend my days in torture than caressing that pompous bastard's ego, which is all you do in heaven. If he was like, "Hey, worship me and I'll give you a palace in a city with gold streets, and tons of hot chicks and reefer forever and ever." It'd be ok.

But that's not how it is. He's like, "Hey, worship me and you can come to a city with golden streets and shitty music playing nonstop where you can submit to my will and kiss my ass for all eternity."

Fuck. That.

I would shoot him and be like "Ha, I told you he didn't exist!"

What is god? I don't want a webster definition, they don't know either.

[MilkAndInnards]

Im punch him in the guts. Then wait for a reaction. Then if he was about to blow me up, I'd kick his ass

I'd ask him for proof that he's real; otherwise it's far more likely that I've had some kind of mental episode and should see a doctor.

Assuming that God proved to my satisfaction that he was in fact God, I'd ask him simply: "What the fuck?" Being God, he'd know what that meant and answer accordingly.

What could god possible do to prove his existence that can't also be classed as you having a mental episode?
