To Not Believe, Is Not An Option
I believe in God.
I believe, because to not believe, is not an option.
I would rather believe in God throughout my life,
then when I die, if there is nothing, I have lost nothing
and would never know.
If I lived my life never believing in God,
then when I died,
and God asks why I did not believe,
I have lost everything,
and will know what I lost for eternity.
To not believe is not an option, only a gamble,
a gamble whose odds produce an incalculable result;
the only guarantee, truth.
