Default Re: Yet Another \"Axiom\" Question

[ QUOTE ]
I hate to be redundant, but I really love this question.

From a purely theoretical point of view the answer should be simple and it seems like it should be “Sure, why not.” Yet, no one (few?) has answered that way. (Well, chez first said - “if its what everyone wants then sure go for it“, then he seems confused about the rules. I‘ll let him get on the same page before we go further.)

I hate to always bring religion into the framework, but here, how can one not be influenced by how one views life? The question seems like a litmus test for atheism to me. And I don’t see many posters passing. (Bad analogy I know.)

Answering the question from my own religious perspective - I don’t like the bargain. I’d pass. It is clearly not the path that I think My God has in mind.

Are you implying that athiests don't care about the future of humanity? It seems like an athiest would care more, since athiests believe that there is nothing else.

The extinction of the human race would be more consequential to an athiest.

Most Christians believe the extinction of the human race is God's will eventually, anyway.

Oh, maybe it is a litmus test for atheism.
