…Win?

Jokes aside, if you don’t believe in god and end up going to heaven because you were actually a good person that would be a win in my book, but I would imagine the atheist in this event would be eternally upset that they were wrong in their actual premise. Joke is more funny if you ended up in a non-Christian afterlife.

I don’t think most atheists would hate to be proven wrong. Most don’t have an issue with other people believing either, unless they try to push their beliefs on other people.

I’m atheist who went through an agnostic phase earlier.

So - as a thought experiment - let’s assume there is a god and heaven and a judgment day.

There are two persons in front of the ultimate judge.

One behaved “good” but just out of fear of ultimate judgement.

The other one just he didn’t want to be an asshole out of his own wishes.

Who’d pass?

So i think god is irrelevant. Belief is irrelevant.

Ultimately these ideas led me down the path of optimistic nihilism.
