what point are you trying to make? this is blatantly fallacious. if your trying to sat atheists have weak beliefs or something i would say we just have our priories strait. and also "dieing for your beliefs" implies your helping your belief.
If anyone suddenly popped up in my face with a gun, and told me to believe in Christ or die. I would say, of course I believe in Christ. The second the bastard walks away, I would think "what a complete retard". And I would go home write about on the internet, and maybe turn someone sitting "on the fence" over to the atheist side, after getting the absolute proof of religious insanity and biggotry.
So I would walk away, to be an atheist another day.
I would like to add to my previous comment, that I do not concider it to be different if someone put a knife to my neck while holding a blue balloon. "Say that this balloon is red, or I will kill you!".
If a psycho threathens your life, it is not a intellectual compromise if you go along with the bastard and agrees with his stupid opinion there and then, just to stay alive.
As an atheist, I believe there is no afterlife, this is it. I would do anything to protect it. Even if It meant going to church on Sundays or adopting any other religious custom.
Ok, so you would lie about your beliefs just to keep on going. uh, the one star rating i'm personally indifferent to but if you want to make yourself out to be an asshole and give me a shit rating i'm cool with that, as long as your honest and not gunna fuckin lie to me.
I suppose I would die, unless Mosses actually showed me somehow he was THE mosses...and then explained why there are so many different forms of religion around the same god (Judism, Christianity, Islam, etc)...then who knows...but just "convert or die?". I'd be dead.
Nice challenge. I would probably choose death, but now that I think about it I wouldn't do any because if you are really an atheist and you belief (accepting something as truth or to be real) in atheism then Jesus or Moses... wouldn't appear to you in the first place.
duh, but it's a hypothetical question. If i came up to you in your house and put a gun to your head and tied you up in your chair with a rocket shoved up your ass threatening to send you to the fuckign sun if you did not bow down before me and accpet my total authority upon you, would you say fuck off and die you radical asshole or would you submit to me.
Now you change your idea to where anyone can try to make you convert, not Jesus... your an atheist come on man think logical, shoving a rocket up my ass and sending me to the sun. Are you fucking retarded! Damn it's people like you who give us atheist a bad reputation, your fucking unintelligent, think before you post or video something.
I'm not an atheist dickhead. I'm a cult leader. I have a diffrent status compared to Muhamad who coesm to you with an AK 47and a dynamyte vest saying follow allah or die by his name. A hypothetical question is based on the idea that something impossible happens. Your lack of udnerstanding my question and the word twisting makes you even stupider then you claim I am.
I give you full permision to go eat some fecies as you obviously are full of shit you are used to it. You are using a sidestepping arguement with the thought that jesus, moses, or any such person exists and claiming it will not ever appear before you just because your an atheist.
Belief isnt something I can choose. If I look at a pen and see a pen, no matter how hard I try, I can't believe that I'm seeing a banana.
I could fake it, and nobody would actually suffer from me doing that, so I'd pretend to convert. I'd still be an atheist, just wearing a religious mask.
How do you make sure it's not a hallucination? Surely if you're in a delusional mind state, then anything you determine in that mind state is part of the delusion. Crazy people are often certain that they are sane. So as long as you think you're crazy, you probably aren't.
Beliefs are never worth dying for, some people just don't realize it. I'm not sure the challenge makes sense though since what we believe is often not a matter of choice. I can't choose to believe that gravity makes things fall upwards.
Isn't the Red Death from that Poe poem the Masque of Red Death? I LOVE that poem.
Anyway yes I would convert to save my life. I really don't give a damn about these religious beliefs. No point in dying for something that stupid.

First I would make sure it is not a hallucinations.
I think I would ask him questions.
Why did it take so long? Why do you require people to praise you? etc.
Not that I have real choice, and that is the problem, with your logic.

I think I would asl him to solve a problem I cannot, or preferably no-one has solved. Those who claim to be in contact with Jesus never done this.
There is no ultimate way but this is the closest.

I don't think atheists would have a problem with saying that we'd converted - it's not like we'd be going against our religious principles to do so
