You said that "Pascal's wager works both ways. I could say that maybe god hates Christians but think Atheists are okay, so you're condmning yourself." How?
You can't use Thomas arguement to say that God was created that's the whole point. There has to have been an uncreated creator. Which means whatever started things could not have been created. I am calling this essence God. And if this essence was uncreated then it can't be destroyed either therefore it is eternal and didn't just up and leave after the creation process had been started.
