And even if one were correct, which one?.. There are many deities and even more interpretations of them. A lot of religions punish those who worship a false god more than those who believe in no god at all.
If I were to wager on the basis of fear of eternal damnation, my safe bet would be to refrain from choosing any god and bank on less likelihood of severe torment.
But fortunately I don’t fear eternal damnation because I don’t believe it exists. Non-existence doesn’t sound so scary either when you consider your state of existence before you were born. You already haven’t existed for billions of years. It’ll be just like that.
Religion is a lie
