I see. So what is the ultimate price of sin? If God does not exist then niether does sin. But if that's the case why is it when you do thing immoral and wrong you suffer for them. Maybe not right a way but they always seem to spring back up eventually.




That's one of the psychological tricks of any religion that 'warns' you for bad things to come. Bad things will always happen, it's because you are not alone on this world. No matter if you pray each day or just once a month or not at all. Life isn't all good, it's often 50-50, for some worse, for some better, regardless of what kind of religion you have.

There are a lot of let's call them 'inevitable' things that will happen and whether you're part of those in some way or another is based on pure chance. In complex systems things will go wrong, and we're part of the biggest and most complex thing.. this world.

If you pray to your God that it must not rain on your birthday and it doesn't rain, that doesn't mean it praying helped anything, you just got lucky. The statistics tell us that this luck is equal for all.. we all have the same chances of luck.

Don't be fooled, but you don't need any religion to develop a proper morality. Besides, if the old testament of the bible or the crusades and inquisition are any clue as to what morality we should have then I'd say a big 'no thanks'.
