Islam is the fastest growing religion and will very soon be the largest religion in the world. Therefore it is more likely to be true.

> fastest growing religion
Hasn't been true for years.

Islam is growing because they're getting more children and because using the sword to spread your faith is actually allowed in Islam

That's a very dumb reasoning.
True is independent of peoples beliefs. A lot of people believe in Hitler does this makes this man right? also fuck off goat fucker you put a foot in my country and i will rape your daughters and make you drink the blood of pigs with all due respect to your religion of course

>True is independent of peoples beliefs

I guess Pascal's wager is refuted then.

Your logical fallacy is "ad populum".

Pascal's Wager is lose-lose. The devil knows there is a God, and will be in hell forever.

Egyptian afterlife sounds fucking horrible desu
Would anyone on Earth be able to pass that bullshit weighting test?

But its kinda true. Also a god would know that your faith was not true and you only pretend to believe for some fear of eternal damnation, different from the true believer who independent of his fears and doubts he still believe in god, God rewards strong faith not convenient faith for the sole purpose of not being in Hell otherwise our god is not honest

Firstly, you can't just "convince" yourself to believe something you don't out of convenience.
Secon of all, it kind of defeats the whole purpose of religion, absolutely denying morality. It's such a retarded way to think. If you even consider it, you're not a moral person (which then again, most people aren't really).
