It would be a waste of time. Reality is slapping you in the face and you can't realize it.
Yep, that magic is powerful stuff.
Sure is. God doesn't like magic.
If I had to pick it would be Christian. It is the easiest one, and you can likely do whatever you want as long as you "believe in Jesus". Ask him for forgiveness and nothing else you do matters.Islam
Judaism
Christianity
Which one you think if you had to choose is most likely be true or correct? Must chose one.
Only want non believers in these religions and Gods. It interesting because from secular western view point the God of all 3 those religions is insane, childish and cruel. I want know what you think you would choose if you had. Obviously religious people not welcome as they have a bias already.
Personally I like that jews not force convert people and not have hell. But I think Islam let men have 4 wives and harem in heaven is cool. Also Muhammad was a war lord which is alpha. If I had choose I be a hypocritical Catholic like they all is or I would be a Shia or sufí Muslim. Is not khabib sufí?

If "we"emulate early Christians and you adhered to the old testament how do you feel about owning people and taking their daughters as your second or third wife?As a Christian absurdist here is my take.
1. Judaism - no real historical evidence and implausible that a Supreme Being would single out one small group as the chosen people
2. Islam - surprisingly little or no contemporary evidence of either the Koran or Mohammed. Earliest Koran we have is incomplete and probably transcribed late in the 8th century. Earliest bio of Mohammed is written nearly 200 years after his supposed death. Notion that revelation is "closed" really contradicts the basic notion of a Supreme Being (if he can't make no revelations, he is not all powerful). All sorts of things that set off the bullshit meter.
3. Christianity - My theory. We are all created by the Supreme Being and in that sense are sons and daughters of God. Some of us - through wisdom, good works, insight, etc. - become closer and closer to God during our lives (Ghandi, MLK, Mother Theresa, etc.). Pretty good evidence that Jesus existed and very plausible that the gospels set forth the gist of his teachings in a reasonably accurate manner. Jesus Christ got the closest of all to God and was the "son of God" in a sense which we mortals cannot fully understand. The early Christians focused on his teachings and did not ruminate about whether or to what extent he was divine, exactly how the "trinity" was organized, etc. etc. - all of that came centuries later. They also did not believe that the New Testament - which did not even exist until the Church defined which books were included - was the word of God. The letters of St. Paul were understood to be letters written by a holy man and that was that. All the bullshit came later. If we emulate the early Christians, we are getting pretty close to the sweet spot of religious practice. Follow the Sermon on the Mount, follow the parables, don't claim to have a monopoly on the truth, love your enemies, turn the other cheek, give away your money to the poor, most of all - be humble about all of this stuff. I haven't found any organized religion which really hits this nail on the head.
He's actually just being logical and honest. All of the religions make testable claims and they all have 0% accuracy.You're letting your anti-theism cloud your judgment here. The question as stated claims you must choose one, and as such, the answer is Judaism.
I said Christianity is most likely to be true.
In terms of historical accuracy:
1. Islam (its depiction of Muhammad if fairly mortal and the events have been reconciled against recorded history)
2. Judaism (it's Christianity without the additional historical inconsistencies of the New Testament, which is pretty blatantly a collection of loosely governed accounts)
3. Christianity (it's the same lore as Judaism plus additional miracles, healing, rising from the dead, and prognostications of doom; also stories of Jesus don't appear until a century after his lifetime)
In terms of what I find to be morally/ethically agreeable and consistent with a all-powerful deity:
1a. Christianity (Judaism + arguable revocation of some of the OT's more objectionable mandates + lots of populist, pro-poor, anti-rich collectivist rhetoric, but also - (no) hell)
1b. Judaism (Christianity - salvation revocations, but also + no hell)
2. Islam
Which part of that statement do you not think is obviously true? The part where it comes from non living matter? Or the conversion through a chemical process.
The flow chart gives a very basic description of the process. Would you consider this process impossible? If so, why?
My absurdist version of Christianity does not. The fact that Jesus was Jewish is irrelevant. What made him the Son of God is his generosity, wisdom, insight, tolerance, mercy, etc.
It would be a waste of time. Reality is slapping you in the face and you can't realize it.
But we're made entirely of non-living matte...oh for fuck's sake nevermind
