Well, God doesn't intervene actively for them. He gives you the rules and then scores you at the end.

Yes, you will ultimately be rewarded or punished for whether you have thought the right things & followed the right rules.

Same sport. Or any situation with rules. But as long as you can pick which set of rules to follow, I don't see it as a conflict.

I don't think they think that tho. They really think the god is real & he's the only one & he's setting rules which apply to all.

But I suspect you are right & they do use this thinking. It just doesn't work if they are actually right.

If they actually got to heaven with same psychology as now & saw ppl being tortured for thoughtcrime, they'd see the problem.

Ideally, they'd probably want everyone's God to be real for them but can't say this coz their god has the 'One True God' rule.

I absolutely agree with that. And they almost take that attitude in life despite not thinking it's true.

They are VERY slippery on Hell, too. They will dodge at any cost, or try and make it seem more palatable, or avoid etc

Yes! That is why I am always surprised when I meet one who believes & justifies their god punishing thought-crime horribly!

But I do meet them quite a lot. I'm sure Haidt will make all clear for me!
