Bingo! So what are the chances you've got the right idea of a god and an afterlife? A million to one?
What are the chances you will disregard this statistical fact because you're terrified of the unknown? I'd say 100%, but I would be delighted if you would prove me wrong on that

.
Once again, any response to my comments on your comparison to Christianity and Islam? Or are you going to continue to dodge the issue entirely? Don't say something if you can't back it up.
Now in regards what you just said (because I actually respond to arguments made against me), you're mixing up what I was saying. There are a million different possibilities of what an afterlife could be like.
The odds you just mentioned are impossible to calculate, it is not a statistical fact that the chances of there being an afterlife (and along with that a God) are 1,000,000 to 1. The only certain statistic we can measure has 2 options :
1) There is no afterlife.
2) There is an afterlife.
Going by that, there is a 1 in 2 chance there is an afterlife, right? No, because it's still an impossible statistic to calculate just like the one you brought up.
Branching out from those 2 choices are where my 'million possibilities' came from. From our first option there are no other possibilities, there is no afterlife and you die and become what you were before you were born: nothing. It's the second choice that yields a million different possibilities behind it and that's what I was talking about.
I'm certainly not terrified of the unknown (as I've stated myself this is what organized religion uses as an anchor), but I am open to the possibility that the unknown is something that I can't possibly imagine right now. It's a scary thing because of the fact that it's unknown, but I understand that it's not in my control at all.
Trust me, I really wouldn't mind if there were no afterlife and once I die, I'm dead. Because at that point everything is blank and erased anyways, no pain, no joy, no suffering, nothing. I just don't believe it's that simple.
What's the end result of this an how does it impact my physical life? There's a lot more self-reflection through prayer, and a lot of focus on being a morally good person and constantly trying to improve myself. It's not such a bad thing.
My problem with atheists (aside from the fact that from personal experience they seem like more bitter people and I wouldn't want to be them) is the "know it all" attitude. Believing in no god and no afterlife is saying you know for certain that nothing lies beyond death. You don't know that because you haven't experienced death. You don't know if there are metaphysical forces we can't see or comprehend, because you live in a physical world that makes physical discoveries about physical facts.
Being more open-minded about things can really change the type of person you are and in the least, help you with your physical life here and now.
