"If I'm right what do I have to loose (sic)"
Why would you lose something if you're right?

Exactly The very defination of god and devine contridicts itself. God or Gods are supposed to be devine anyways.
To have an All powerful that cannot over power(evil)
To have an all knowing that cannot know( how to overpower evil, rid the world of sins).
He must be all knowing if he created everything. It is only logical to assume this. Like if I create a toy car, I should know all about the toy car as long as i exists. But God is eternal so he should know all at all times of all times. It doesnt matter what you say. He is also supposed to be loving caring wonderful. How can be those while being destructing and careless as well. And if you careless your not loving because to love is to care.
That is like saying there is a circle with sides. you do not need to be everywhere universe to know this. You know this because you know to be a circle or what a circle is or the defination of one is that it is a figure with no sides and it has a circumference. So therefore God cannot exists as he is both all powerful and not all powerful, all knowing and not knowing cannot make sense. As well as caring and careless.
Love thy enemies lesson is bull. because that means you should love evil also, therefore love satan, pedofiles, rapists, child abusers and Mass murders.
If you choose to ignore this this shows you are delusional. you choose to persistantly ignore facts and evidence. Means your irational which is the opposite of rational. Rational is being logical and reasonable. Therefore you the opposite is illlogical and unreasonable. Why should we trust illogical and unreasonable people? Persisitingly ignoring what god, devine means means your delusional. And delusional people are irrational so they are illogical and unreasonable.
Depends what your talking about.. and if your right that doesnt mean you have nothing to loose. Everyone has something to loose wether they care about it or not. that includes the world they live in and what they care about.
If your right and the wrong try to put you down. You may have something to lose.

Exactly the same if you flip it around. If you're wrong, what do you have to loose ? If I'm right, what do I have to loose ?

Do you not think that IF there is a god he's worked that one out? Well, I know there is no evidence proving that there is a god but I'll ignore all the evidence indicating that and stubbornly say there is. By the way, Pascal came up with that one quite a while ago, it's called Pascals wager.

unfortunately that isn't how it works. If you could just choose to believe and be done with it, everyone would be doing it. You need a relationship, and you don't get relationships with people by knowing they exist. I don't have a close relationship with Tom Cruise. I know who he is, I know he exists, in fact I believe that he is real. But that doesn't mean that I want eternity with him, right?
So it is like trying to force people to be your friend, can't do it, and you aren't really friends without the relationship.

Um, I think you mean "lose." "Loose" means not tight.
So you're (not "your" )
wrong about at least two things: your/you're and loose/lose.
What do you think you may be right about?
I don't think you have anything to lose. I have nothing to lose, either.

Right about what?
If you are wrong about being able to drink poison and handle deadly snakes you will lose quite a bit.

You have truth to lose and will never be truely happy. I'll find out there really is an evil God in control of the world. But I know there isn't.

i presume you are referring to pascal's wager: (see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pascal's_Wager)
the simple response to this 'bet' is: How can you be sure you are worshipping God in the right way? Maybe only mormons will go to heaven. Or perhaps hindus. Or presbytarians.
