What if there's no God?

Nothing. If there is no God there is no God, nothing in this world would change. Unless you mean people would gain the knowledge that there is no God? That would have some impact on the world I believe.

The answer of our Imams is completely different than Pascal's Wager idea.

We believe that God can be proved by reason.

And we response to the a supposition by the unbelievers, that based on their belief, we lose nothing by believing on God.

and based on our belief you lose everything by not believing on God.

So this is completely different than Pascal's Wager theorization.

If there is no God,

we should respect his wishes anyway because he is supposedly very nice.

But it is possible to make a case for the near-inevitability of God by admitting to a subtle degree of flexibility concerning the terms Omniscience, Omnipresence, and Omnipotence: all knowledge, all places, and all power (energy) exist. Whatever that is, can be defined as God.

no, but seriously, it doesn't. and the burden of explanation is on you as to how you mean to make distinct your suppositions about your own religion from Pascal's wager. so... can you go ahead and make that distinction? because it's not that clear.
good luck.

Except omniscience cannot exist in a chaotic/random universe, and by extrapolation omnipotence.

All three Omni- denote a structured, thinking mind, as such is requried to house those qualities.

Energy, which does not constitute a structured mind, cannot be considered "god" by your definition.

What if there's no God?

Then we'll have a party! The fire wood is drying out from the rain. I'll supply the bonfire. Someone else can supply the Mt. Dew and Dr. Pepper. We can have alcohol if you want too. And sammiches! Everyone bring something! Be it some lawn chairs, a radio, food or drinks of some sort, a fun game... just bring some stuff and we'll have a massive party!

(After dark, or the smoke from the fire will be visible on the highway and we might get in trouble...)

What does it matter whether there is a God or not ??...the important thing is that we all live our lives the best and proper way we can...live this moment totally. In spite of Gods or no Gods....why should we change ?....why should we care ?

Let me ask you this. Do you want to meet this so much talked about god if he is real? Dont you want to be a better person? Maybe he can help with that. What happends when you die? What do you tell your kids? Surely to want answers to lifes issues. People often trun to him for healing, he can help in terms of depresstion, anger and even make you a better person. Note Im speaking in a religious point of veiw. There are always two sides to a coin :D Notice how a toy bear can do all the same things. lol

No, I would not wish to meet Jehovah. According to the scriptures he suppsoedly inspired, he is a sadistic meglomaniac.

Depression? Anger? Plenty of compeltely non-religion palces tog et help for those, from professionals to family.

Better eprson? If someone NEEDS religion to be a "better person", they have issues.

Why not just be oneness with the universe ??..
 

The Peace of Islam

think of Islam?
Life is not perfect
Muslims lost their battle in Ohod,
why did this happen?
God gives the choice to humans to decide the path they want
if our path is wrong , our life will be wrong
this is exactly what is happening
