What is Argument from inconsistent revelations?
The '''Argument from inconsistent revelations''' (also known as '''Avoiding the wrong hell problem''') is an [[argument]] that says that [[God]] probably does not exist. There are many [[religion]]s which are based on [[revelation]]s. The problem with these revelations is that they contradict each other. A person must either accept or reject at least one of these revelations in order to be part of a religious group. That way, accepting one means rejecting some (if not all) of the others. Unless the revelation is personal, the follower must to some extent rely on the judgment or the stories of others. Assuming the revelation is personal, the follower is still ignoring the revelations of those before him. [[Christianity|Christians]] believe that [[Jesus]] is the savior of the world and the [[Messiah|son of God]]; [[Jew]]s believe just as strongly that he is not. Similarly, [[Islam|Muslims]] believe that the [[Qur'an]] was divinely authored, while Jews and Christians do not. There are many examples of such contrasting views. Positions where one religion contradicts another, or where one group of people contradicts another are common. There are many [[Christian denomination|denominations]] in Christianity who do not agree about many things. {{religion-stub}} [[Category:Religion]] [[Category:Critical thinking]]
