(1) It is possible that the Christian God exists and it is possible that the Christian God does not exist.
(2) If one believes in the Christian God then if he exists then one receives an infinitely great reward and if he does not exist then one loses little or nothing.
(3) If one does not believe in the Christian God then if he exists then one receives an infinitely great punishment and if he does not exist then one gains little or nothing.
(4) It is better to either receive an infinitely great reward or lose little or nothing than it is to either receive an infinitely great punishment or gain little or nothing.
Therefore:
(5) It is better to believe in the Christian God than it is not to believe in the Christian God.
(6) If one course of action is better than another then it is rational to follow that course of action and irrational to follow the other.
Therefore:
(7) It is rational to believe in the Christian God and irrational not to believe in the Christian God.

I feel quite depressed tonight. I keep falling for men who do not notice me or use me. I mean, this guy from last night: We did not even exchange numbers, because at the time I saw it as a fling...but now I feel lonely: Perhaps because I again had a glimpse of what life could have been like. I want to forget about each and every loser who crossed my path...I want somebody who appreciates me...but where do I find him? Please give advice or cheer me up...Oh, no perverts please!

You don't see the Frat Boy murders in the News like back in the 60's when Bush was a sprout.

Modern News is about bad girls like Parris. The Bush types of the world are protected by coverups.

You hear about all these near misses (usually a few billion kms away?) but Earth still manages to dodge em. Who really believes that one huge rock will slam into the planet in the next 50 years causing mass damage. Call me morbid, but I sometimes wonder if it wouldn't be such a bad thing what with all the wars/pollution/evil peeps in the world.

We had the blueprints, relatively early on, and would have been able to bomb the central administrative sector. However, bombs were not laser-guided.

I am doing a debate on this topic. What is the strongest argument that we should have bombed it?
