God from the bible. The whole book will just be a bunch of ancient stories nobody should care about anymore. Would be interesting to see what the world would be like without Christianity.
The same or worse, because other religions wouldβve taken Its place instead
Not really
Or maybe better
Probably not as long as people are going around devoting their lives to make-believe. That never ends well.
Less bad is still better, which is a possibility that wasn't mentioned.
Iβm not one to weigh the terribleness of degrees of being a slave. I just donβt want to be one.
Bizarrely, God is the main antagonist in the Old Testament in terms of plot.
So the stories would be more boring but also a lot calmer.
Great answer... But now you've caused God to actually exist IRL!
