Maybe that's why he has such a brilliant mind, because he believes in it.

Clearly not.

All of his brilliance comes from, as always, tight craft and logic. His pin-point delivery, his masterful rhyming patterns, his descriptive writing.

None of his brilliance is in the belief of a supernatural creator. That's one of his weaknesses.

I don't think I'm going to Hell, and if on some crazy off chance it does exist, I might be there soon anyway. Fuck it.

Many people say they believe in God because its still somewhat taboo not to.

Just because he dropped a couple of Christianity lines when he was 19 years old, doesn't mean he believes in God.

Anyway, I think the song would be such a knockoff of what Kanye did, it would be gut-wrenching in 100 different ways.

Pascal's Wager.

Don't believe in God, in the end, the payoff will be nothing.

Believe in God? If God doesn't exist, your payoff is 0. If he does exist... well then your payoff is infinite.

Its just game theory. Em is a smart man, taking the odds

Pascal's Wager is nonsense. This old chesnut.

If god was real and all forgiving then he'll forgive you for not believing in him anyway.

Also, there's no logic in Pascal's conclusion because if you really didn't believe in god but lied to yourself on this basis / for his reason - God would know you're lying anyway so you'd be in the same position. In fact worse because god would know you're trying to deceive for personal bliss as opposed to being true and honest if you actually do not believe.

What kind of god's main priority is that you believe in him anyway lmao. Absolutely ridiculous. A petty, self-obsessed but ALMIGHTY and all-knowing creator. Right, so he has the stature of infinite power but the emotional aspects of a 6 year old.

It's not 'smart' or odds-worthy to believe in god for that reason. It's wishful and absurd. The probability of there being a god is as close to zero as we need to entertain, we only can't say it's 100% zero because we can't say that about ANYTHING. But dedicating what is ODDS ON, almost 100% certainly your only life to believing in something with absolutely no basis is the stupid option.

I don't care what you believe as long as its doing no harm. I believe in God... I believe in an infinite being who is the source to everything that is, was and ever will be... I don't think it is a weakness..on the contrary it brings great hope and liberty to what you perceive as reality...to me reality is spirituality and this is just a minute part of our eternal existence. But every one has an opinion and perspective on life and I don't hate... believe what you believe.. be and let be

Hah. Yes it is nonsense. That was a jokie poo. Good breakdown of it, though.

Hmm, what about the people living in remote civilizations who have never heard of God before? Do they just go to hell because of this? :unsure:

Of course this becomes a religious debate. Personally I'd rather him not talk about religion in his songs. Don't think it'd suit him and it wouldn't turn out that great, he's not that kind of rapper.
