| has gloss | eng: The Argument from inconsistent revelations which is also known as Avoiding the wrong hell problem is an argument that says that God probably does not exist. There are many religions which are based on revelations. The problem with these revelations is that they contradict each other. A person must either accept or reject one of these revelations, in order to be part of a religious group. That way, accepting one means rejecting some of the others. Unless the revelation was personal, the follower must to some extent rely on the judgment or the stories of others. |
| has gloss | eng: The argument from inconsistent revelations, also known as the avoiding the wrong hell problem, is an argument against the existence of God. It asserts that it is unlikely that God exists because many theologians and faithful adherents have produced conflicting and mutually exclusive revelations. Since a person not privy to revelation must either accept it or reject it based solely upon the authority of its proponent, and there is no way for a mere mortal to resolve these conflicting claims by investigation, it is prudent to reserve one's judgment. |
