If you don't believe in the laws of the legal system, do you think a judge is going to find you guilty of something you didn't do just because you say "I don't believe that this is a bullshit law"?

At the risk of having this moved, and I'll delete it if that's the case, why do you believe in a God that makes it possible to fail and uses fear to motivate you?  Who would throw you down to Earth knowing absolutely nothing, and say, "Figure it our or else.  I love you, but I will torture you for all eternity if you don't.  Oh and make sure you keep telling me how awesome I am.  I'm a bit of an egotistical tyrant.  And I hope you were born to parents who chose the right belief system or your done before you start."  It's insanity.  Read something like "Conversations With God".  I don't know if it's real.  It certainly seems like it would be hard to make up, but either way, it makes a lot more sense.  And there's plenty more besides those books.
