Always question all authorities because the authority you don't question is the most dangerous... except me, never question me.

It is odd.

If there is a Prince of Darkness, then there is a God.  Further, what is the Prince of Darkness offering as "salvation"?

Hi guys.

Basically, are you as atheists are willing to sign it up? Because most of the atheists do not believe in any sort of spirituality, this shouldn't be a problem then. It's an antithesis to Pascal's Wager. Because there is no afterlife, there is no harm in giving it away. So...

That's the same as asking me to sign something saying I believe in and follow God or Jesus or Zeus or Thor.  That would be a lie.

There wouldn't be anything lost by selling my soul to the devil because I'd be going to hell anyway...  if it existed and the Christian god happened to be real.

Thank you very much for replies.

It will help with my research. If I offended anyone, I apologize.

I wish you all a nice day. Bye

FYI, if you treat the people for your research film like this (asking a very odd question then not explaining why) you are going to get a skewed view of reality...perhaps that's the goal though :shrug:

For everyone else...the purpose of the question was to give the OP an idea of how people will respond when he gets around to actually interviewing them for some film he's making.  He stated very clearly that nothing here would be used for that film.

Since he wasn't up front in saying this I think it's only right to reveal that to everyone even though it was disclosed privately.
