[QUOTE="variant, post: 74225748, member: 114463"] And I would agree if you knew the danger existed. In this case we're reacting to a theoretical possibility in a situation some have presented that appeals directly to our most basic fears. I don't think there is any way to rate the probability's of Gods or what people say they are promising or threatening. What I can rate is that some of these claims by religions are false as they don't mesh up, so there's little to go on. I can quite confidently state that these claims are coercion, and emotional manipulation, because they are regardless of their truth. It would just be a matter of who put us in a situation where we can't adequately assess things and wants a specific decision regardless of it's foundation. [/QUOTE]
