Default Re: God.

Quote:
Morality is not objective, as it can be seen throughout the world.
Counter: Morality is objective. The people who are acting in violation of that objective morality are just -wrong- and either don't know or don't care.

(Don't get me wrong, neither statement is provable, since there is equally no -proof- to support objective or subjective morality, but it answers your quibble about how differnet cultures act in different ways)

Also...Pascal didn't say anything about a guarenteed payout. Pascal said basically: Given a choice between believing and not believing in the christian God, it is a more sound position to believe, because if you believe and are wrong, you lose nothing, but if you disbelieve and are wrong, you have everything to lose.

This doesn't say that he has a "guaranteed payout" it says that he has -better chances- one way than the other.
