I don't want to spark up any arrogancy, seeing that is the common trend in these kind of discussions, but I honestly want to know. What would you do if, at the end of your life, you found out that God is real?

I would ask him for forgiveness and explain how I didn't see any evidence of his being whilst I was alive, and would rather have not been a part of organized religion which has brought immeasurable pain and suffering upon the world for centuries..
The world is a very messed up place, and due to theists etc focusing so much on the next life and not this one, they are not being as helpful in solving worldly problems than what really needs to be done, eg- the spread of AIDS, wars, famines, corrupt governments, etc!
I haven't gone against most of the teachings/commandments from the bible however. I would also ask of him to make his presence known to those who do not realise it upon the world, I.e. My kids, etc, in a clearer way than he did me.
How will you respond if you are reborn onto earth (reincarnation) after you die? You'll probably think it's your only chance again, as you cannot see your past lives...

I always answer questions honestly. I'm honest to a fault, even if it gets me into trouble.
As to the question....
This has been asked a million times on here.
Its quite simple... if Christianits is correct, then a god would accept a sincere heartfelt apology. However, if the bible is correct and the god is hateful enough to send me into hell anyway for not worshipping the god while I'm alive, then I'm glad I didn't waste my life on such a hateful, selfish god because he wasn't worth it and I'll gladly suffer hell because heaven wouldn't have been much better.
Besides, according to the Christians, most of my family would be in hell anyway. I'd rather be with my family.

Say cool. Walk on into his realm and sit down, because the kind of god I would believe in wouldn't care that much. If I found out the dick wad Christian god was really running things, well, then I guess, like most of the world, we would be up **** creek without a paddle.

ok truthful answer. specific. motives. If an grownup informed me that they believed in Santa Claus or the Easter Bunny i could evaluate that on the least that they had a studying venture and mandatory some kind of help, at worst i could evaluate that they had some style of ailment. I evaluate maximum people who definitely have faith in faith as actuality, as being mentally incapacitated, and in want of medical help, after alll, one purely has to make certain what maximum folk of religionists think of on right here to make certain that they have some very unusual techniques of finding at issues. maximum religions look to educate tolerance and understand-how however the believers themselves look to need to pass around scuffling with and killing in the call of that faith, that doesn't look like the strikes of sane minds. extra, religionists whilst confronted with irrefutable evidence disproving the distinctive issues they chosen to have faith have not got any solutions to justify the stance they address that evidence, often reverting to, 'i've got faith in God' as though this purely makes the info pass away. As for people who declare you're able to discriminate against faith in a similar way which you would be able to discriminate against a race or intercourse, i'm sorry yet that's actual nonsensical, we've not have been given any option to regardless of if we are born black, white, male or lady. we are able to chosen a faith, and might replace from being non secular to non-non secular.

Which God? By which set of dogmatic beliefs will I be judged? If it is a God that lets people suffer for eternity then I would feel proud of my denial of such an evil being. Really, too vague a question.

You have to decide which god you are referring to. Some peoples gods would be understanding and accept that he gave me the ability and right to think and I did so. If I live a good life, did not hate, like so many on this forum, and was then confronted with him, if he would condemn me to hell, I would rather be in hell than in any heaven who would be controlled by a god who hated so thoroughly. If the god would accpet my life as it was and saw that it was good then I would like to be in his heaven. I have no fear of meeting god, or not god, under either conditions.

If I found out he was real AFTER I was dead, then I'd be in heaven, right? If I somehow found out, just before death that he was real, then I'd believe in him. I won't say anything, I won't do anything. All the sins that I am sorry for, he'd already know so I don't have to repent.

I guess that would depend on which god was real. If it is one of the hindu gods, I think I will do fine.
If it is Allah, or Jehovah, or Yahweh, however, I think I would be sent to hell for not believing during my lifetime.
I think there would be little for me to do in that circumstance.
Cheers...half a drink for half of Pascal's wager.

It would probably be something along the lines of:
"Holy Sh&t, they were right. Who would have thought that. Oh well. Now, where is that lake of fire I have reservations at? And, is a Texas fishing license good there?"

Act surprised.
then give him a proper dressing down for not doing anything for all those who needed help over the past few thousand years.
