Christians tend to follow the NT, as their beliefs are drawn from it. No, but it stemmed from Christian principles. Putting it a different way, Pascal's Wager doesn't indicate which God is the ''one, true God,'' but it may be assumed that it's God as defined in the NT.
http://www.dartmouthapologia.org/apologia/meaning-and-pascals-wager/ Well, that answered my question. So, Pascal's Wager was in fact, intended to favor Christianity, over atheism.
Please provide an example of "any other scriptoral concept of God". I'm having a little trouble following your convolutions here...
Obviously it assumes that belief is god can only be of one particular flavor. But even in Christianity, god commands to have no other gods before him, which means that if you pick the wrong one, you're just as screwed as a non-believer.
The one that brings you peace of mind. If science is right, and were all just monkeys in a universe that happened by accident, then we're all free to worship or not worship as we please. Personally, I think there is great benefit to finding a relationship with a Higher Power. I think there is great benefit to nourishing the spirit.
You can find all that without worshiping anything. But if it floats your boat, have at it. My point was a counter to your claim that we have been "told" the right one.
Prove that you don't need to believe in God to find peace of mind? How does one (theist or atheist) prove peace of mind other than to take their word for it?
''God'' and ''gods'' are two different categories, even if you don't want them to be. There is, and can only be, One God. Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image! jan.
Christianity was his religion. You stil haven't explained what the ''Christian concept of God'' is. jan.
I asked you the question ''How does the concept of God in the Bible differ from any other scriptoral concept of God?'' jan.
