No, because logic says if that is the outcome, then it doesn't matter what we do in this life. It's all in vain. Therefore if those religions represents truth, the religion is irrevelant, in the big picture it just doesn't matter. It's not just that it's an outcome I don't like, it's that it makes all we do in vain.

BWAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHA! So the idea that what's their god tells them to do should have no bearing on the religious practices they adopt??

And here I thought you couldn't top yourself.

If their God's goal is for them to be dissolved into the cosmic soul, yeah. Think about it. If they don't obey their god, they continue in the endless cycle of birth and death, ie they get to live longer. If they do obey their god, they cease to exist. Yeah, that's a good system!
