So it's not based on any rational motive. That brings us back to where we started. Is that really how you lead you life?

My point is not to start a new religion, but to show you an instance where you would be wrong that your beliefs have less risk than mine. I can’t prove my hypothetical god any more than you can prove yours, therefore the risk-reward ratio is not a rational reason to follow any god who’s existence can’t be proven.

So you make yourself God. Hmmmmm. Alas, Satan did the same thing.
