Most unsupported anecdotes do not tell you that if you do not believe them you will go to hell.


Some do and some don't - that doesn't alter the fact it's merely unsupported anecdote.


The worthless lies and delusions will do something close to that.


Not necessarily. A lie or a delusion may state you go to heaven - it's still a lie or a delusion.

Your 'anecote' has not demonstrated any difference.

I wouldn't say its the epitome of an inflated ego but we are dealing with people who think the universe was made for them.

True. That is the problem with thinking you have the ear of the God of the whole universe.

Moot. No convincing evidence has been provided for any god, whether you think you think you're it's special little snowflake or not.

I agree with your first.
