As far as I know, the Almighty and Jesus were two persons. The considered body of Christ had done something errr... jaw-dropping. So I am figuring out what went wrong. In the mean times, I had to take hold on the Creator HIMSELF with the gift of the Christ. And that is how the walk will be walking for now. No matter what the Christ had done wrong, everybody knows I hate burdens. All I need is on me, okay? I forget things quickly overtime, as long as yesterdays won't get in todays. And this is my speech as a creature. And for the godly speaking, I am, I meant myself as the I am, not in the position to judge. Even so I am, and I told you I hated to be burdened with no matter a golden rule or sapphire ruler.
For your second question: please check the Bible. In the image of GOD, made he him. I AM. The Almighty GOD. The GOD of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob......... And I do what I please.
Can I charge you for defining the meanings on GOD now? Your bill will be mailed to your address. Just kidding. GOD is not a merchandise. HE is your life.
Fair question. I am talking about the personal gods of the various religions, And quasi - gods, too such as Thetans and Karma. For the purposes of Pascal's wager, one has to mean particular gods with a link to particular religions the acceptance of which is a condition of getting into a nice afterlife or being condemned to a nasty one.
Anything else - including First Cause, Sortagod or the god of Einstein - is irrelevant to the wager of Blaize Pascal.
That should do. Now I repeat, what if it turns out to be Allah? Setting aside the point that what the Bible says is neither here nor there, Allah is just the latest message of the same god of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Jesus, Muhammad and for that matter, Joseph Smith.
for me. The data says something exists and we are part of it. It really is indisputable by trained personnel. But I would bet money no omni god thing exists.
My money would be on him no existing. If this world is evidence of "god's" work, then I'm not impressed. Someone as powerful as they claim he is couldn't possibly mess things up this bad!
Here's a curious question; If god's existence were to be proven, or disproved, tomorrow, would you bet a large sum of money today on the outcome? I overheard the question posed to someone the other day. It kind of comes down to; how much faith does a person put in his faith; his life savings, for example?
Sure I would. My perception of God, that is.
And I'll give 2 to 1 odds. Any amount of money...right now. I'm a sure winner...so it really isn't a "bet".

*snicker* When you can make up your own god, then yeah, you're right. You can't lose.
If 'love' of a child were to be proved, or disproved, tomorrow, would one wager on it?
Love can't be proved. Actions can be pointed to but that is not an empirical proof.
So yea, I wager on God, just as I wager on love of all that I hold dear. If the ultimate 'act' of proof is willingness to give up my life on their behalf, I can think of no greater wager.
have bet not only all my money but also my health and well being and home.
it was a good bet.
