This thread seems to be based on the notion that everybody has the same frame of reference.
So the idea that people reject God because they want to indulge in intemperate life styles.
But what if many people simply aren't interested in religion in the first place?
It's been my observation that people who do believe indulge in intemperate life styles anyway.
I think mostly people don't believe because as you say, they are just not interested or simply think too critically, i.e. are not convinced by the lack of evidence. Or it just doesn't make any sense to them - as was my case.
I made a logical assessment when I was a kid and concluded that there was no God because there was no known logical means for a god to exist. I may have been wrong in my original assessment but I have reassessed my thinking several times since then, using new information and understanding and come to the same conclusions. But either way, even if a god did turn out to actually exist, I am still not interested in changing my lifestyle. I would just accept it in the same way I accept the existence of the Eiffel tower.
You guys have no problem with slavery. You are slaves because you want to be.
God is my Master, Father, no problem if you say I am slave, think what you wish man.
