Ithilion, Discussions Moderator (Auta i lómë) 19:01, May 31, 2017 (UTC) Well these (if you take them seriously) are against one of the ten commandments. You shall have no other gods before me...

And these are literally written by men whereas the Bible was written by God through men... The Bible wasn't necessarily written by God, and isn't necessarily true. This is something you need to realise, especially when talking about Pascal's Wager. Christianity isn't already true, and isn't above any other religion. Hence, trying to argue as if Christianity is the only religion out there and morally blackmailing people just so they don't go to hell is not only way out of the realms of morality, but also most definitely not correct in a logical sense either.

The chance that Christianity is correct is an unknown, though I'd say a small unknown, definitely when put into context with all the other religions preaching basically the same things but all of them saying "no, we're the true religion". Again other religeous books are actually written by man. There are mistakes in them. Also there are some religeons who follow the Bible, but not comepletely.

Also the Bible is older than all the other "holy books" You're trying to justify the Bible as made by God by saying it was made by God, and justifying God through the Bible.

Sufficed to say, it doesn't work. The Bible isn't "special" because it claims its God made it. The same is true of all others, in a similar respect. Your claim is meaningless.
