I'm not religious myself but seriously, think about it.

'BTW this isn't related to the previous topic but I had this convo with a rather level-headed Christian friend. He told me, even if I dont believe, what's the harm in choosing TO believe?? Isn't the more logical option to actually just take the less risky option? Because truth be told, we really DON'T KNOW whether an afterlife exists or not. If you're an athiest, you're actually believing in your version of the afterlife (that you just stop existing).

But what if we're wrong?
Nothing to lose anyway. Maybe just some sad stuff like having to abstain from sex/masturbation if you're that horny. But I mean, really, it's not like you're that much worse off or restricted in terms of a religion like Christianity. Most of the ten commandments can be easily followed so long as you dont commit a crime. I think that's also why Christianity is so popular. People can widely interpret it and aren't so constrained in their everyday lives by it.
