I am prepared to be very serious about sin and righteous, and salvation and damnation; and I wish I could be.
But can't all those church people and such understand this is all a game for god and his angels?
Even in the Bible you can find places where god had a wager going with the devil.
Neither god or the devil are totally good or totally evil; they're just having fun. Why can't all the instense religious folks understand this?

that begs the question, therefore: "What game is it?"

The wager you refer to is in the Book of Job, clearly written as a play to get people thinking about how they deal with tragedy. I don’t think anybody seriously thinks it actually happened.
A relationship with God is no game. When all is said and done it is the single most important aspect of our lives. It is as real as real gets.

It's a three billion dollar a year game and the religions love to play.

It is "all a game" to you, not to us.
Believe in God and sharing the gospel is what we all do. If you cannot experience God - you should try harder. Seek and you shall find. Smile.

Let's hope it's all a game or some of us are going to be in deep s*** in the end.

The condition of your soul & your type of lifestyle here on earth is not a big cosmic joke. God's character & expectations are clearly defined in HIS written Word. Read & get a Revelation..................My Jesus.......<>< <><
