Eternity Has Only Two Choices!
I'm quite sure that any levelheaded human being realizes that this life is full of choices to make (or not to make), but when it comes to eternity, we're supposed to believe that we have only two options to pick from. This is not a choice, obviously, and for those of you who disagree, keep reading. The basic idea that this message is attempting to deliver to us is that eternity is a choice, as there are only two possible outcomes for your eternal existence, and while some people may argue that 'yes' and 'no' are choices, this type of decision making goes beyond that, to the point where it threatens humanity almost to a satirical level.
Heaven is our 'yes' choice and Hell is our 'no' choice, with the latter being eternal damnation and torture within the lake of fire known as Hell. Now, I'm very well aware that all choices have consequences, but the decision of where to spend your eternity in this case is not a choice; it's an ultimatum. Unfortunately for many people, this is not obvious and still isn't even after you've explained the situation to them. A choice implies an end or purpose which requires the exercise of judgement. Obviously in this situation to many narrow-minded individuals, not very much judgement is required in this decision. Predictably, you're going to say 'yes' to Heaven.
Or are you? Those who are no stranger to god's atrocities are very likely going to reject his idea of salvation and refuse to worship such a monster. A being that would commit genocide over and over again, then have the nerve to provide us with the ultimate slap to the face is worthy of no reverence whatsoever and should be treated like a disease. Terrorizing the human race and then providing it with an offer it supposedly cannot refuse is extremely similar to some tactics that we as human beings still employ to this day. Most religions use this tactic to intimidate intellectual insects into believing that their eternal life is going to be complete with agony and torment if they reject this tyrant's salvation, when in reality, if this god was as benevolent as his followers make him out to be, he would neither employ this method, nor would he have resorted to the religious mass murder of so many people in his blood-stained history. Unfortunately, many people lack common sense and any moral fiber associated with it, so they're just as likely to believe that the boogieman exists in addition to this murderous swine.
An ultimatum is defined as a final proposition, condition, or demand, especially one whose rejection will end all negotiations and cause a resort to force or other direct action. How more obvious does this have to be for people to realize that their god is a tyrannical, murderous, intellectually and morally bankrupt individual with no more love for us than the dirt he supposedly made us with? It's time for us to wake up and realize that god did not create us; we created him, and we conceived him with the idea of using such foolishness to intimidate, bully, and coerce our way to the top. Well, I have news; bullshit might get you to the top, but it won't keep you there.
