What is your idea of the afterlife?

[Minardi]

Tell me, other than that 'there must be more/we can't just be here for no reason' crap, is there an actual reason why you believe in what you say.

trust me, if my family told me all my life that the grass where purple, then i would believe them, so i dont blame him.

I agree with you and if he'd responded with what you said I would've given him his pass and ended it, knowing that, what you said is ultimately true.

who is born a bad person? According to Islam every child is born sinless, and no sin is inherited. Islam does not recognize any original sin whatsoever, no man would have to be born with it. every child born is a pure innocent creature, which will only become sinful when it actually commits a sin itself, and one definitely cannot commit a sin before one is born

Then why is it that some die before they have a chance to sin and thus get straight into Heaven?

are you sure? isnt everyone according to christianity born with the sin of adam and Eve's disobedience to God is passed on to their descendants and thus the whole of mankind is accursed with that Original Sin, from which no salvation is possible unless one believes in the atoning death on the cross of the Son of God.? how can a child who died at birth believe that hwne he she never had the chance to?

I think people are born with a predisposition to sin, not born sinful. I'm not sure though.

for example? even if he did it make it clear to you, you still wouldnt believe it unless he himself appeared infront of you and told you which one is right and which is wrong, you must understand religion before you ask such questions, there would be no purpose in life if he did just that, i believe he has pointed to us which religion is right and it is up to us to use our abilities which god gave us to find out which one it is

Surely the purpose of life is to be a good, kind person, not to try and wade through all the religious nonsense to find the 'true' religion?

islamic point of view

ever since life began God has been sending His messengers or pophets to guide them along the “right path”. When prophets passed away, people who followed them differed among themselves in the understanding and interpretation of the Guidance they had received from God through those prophets. Sometimes, the wicked and selfish among them, deliberately distorted the true message out of their mutual ill will or to satisfy their greed.

Is that not God's fault for not making the message clear enough? If he hadn't made it so ambiguous then there wouldn't be the misinterpretation that there is.

everything which has a beginning has a cause, it is self-evident that things that begin have a cause, no one really denies it in his heart. All science and history would collapse if this law of cause and effect were denied. my life had a beginning and i really dont believe that im livin my life for nothing, whats the point than?

You don't understand the idea of cause and effect. The cause was your father impregnating your mother. The effect was your birth. That's cause and effect.

I have never seen anything that has made me feel there is anything more than what I stated.

And mostly what I see regarding your point of view is pathetic attempts at people clutching at straws to prove that they're 'special'.

Also, how can you question me when I state that I, regarding God and spiritual matters, see nothing, feel nothing and smell nothing apart from some kiddy-fiddling preacher's bullshit.

Our sense do often lie, but until they're proved wrong it's only natural that we follow them.

Tell me, other than that 'there must be more/we can't just be here for no reason' crap, is there an actual reason why you believe in what you say.

chill out? what you've said above is nothing but worthless personal experiences, nothing worth arguing over, just because you havent felt, seen or herd anything doesnt mean no body has now does it? maybe your refusal to believe could just be the sole reason why you havent? and yes there are plenty of reasons why i believe in what i say, but why bother if all im gonna get is worthless replies such as this one?

trust me, if my family told me all my life that the grass where purple, then i would believe them, so i dont blame him.

really you would? even though all you had to do is step outside and see for yourself that the grass is green?

you are proof that evolution not only exists but proof that it goes in reverse as well

surely the purpose of life is to be a good, kind, loving, faithful person to get closer to your creator and not to believe that you were evolved from an animal?

Is that not God's fault for not making the message clear enough? If he hadn't made it so ambiguous then there wouldn't be the misinterpretation that there is.

it was clear enough? what makes you think it wasnt? its the peoples different interpretations of those words that wasnt clear enough. hence many different religions?

You don't understand the idea of cause and effect. The cause was your father impregnating your mother. The effect was your birth. That's cause and effect.

and whats my cause? what if i dont wanna impregnate a woman? animals evolved into humans and bang the cause of life is suddenly to impregnate and make babies

im sorry but is this an attmept at trying to be funny?

 

[Glockmatic]

but its true isn't it?

Trying addressing my point, rather than attempting to turn it round on me. Obviously I don't believe in a creator, so that doesn't actually affect me.

it was clear enough? what makes you think it wasnt? its the peoples different interpretations of those words that wasnt clear enough. hence many different religions?

If the message was communicated clearly, there would be so very many different religions and Gods over the course of human history.

and whats my cause? what if i dont wanna impregnate a woman? animals evolved into humans and bang the cause of life is suddenly to impregnate and make babies

What? You're confusing the word 'cause' with the word 'purpose'. I'm not saying the purpose of life is to procreate. Your argument is based on the assumption that we have a predefined purpose, which we don't. Just as animals don't have predefined purposes, nor do we. You might not like that idea, but again that's one of the reasons religion was created.

I usually say that Energy can not be destroyed thus life goes on in some way, but I just found a interesting argument against that.

http://www.astronomycafe.net/qadir/ask/a10462.html

If energy cannot be created or destroyed what does this say about life after death?

Not much that I know of.

What you say about energy is accurate, however, the energy in the body is maintained by chemical reactions which keep the body warm and at 98.6 F. Energy flows out of the body as heat, and exits the surface of the body as infrared radiation. When you die, the chemical reactions slow to a stop, and the cells break down chemically to give up their last ergs of organized energy. The heat produced also radiates away from the body as infrared radiation until the body reaches equilibrium with its environment and absorbs as much infrared 'heat' radiation as it emits.

So far as we know, that is all there is to the process of death, and there is no violation of energy conservation.

You don't believe in Darwin's theory of evolution?

 

[CalcuoCuchicheo]

chill out? what you've said above is nothing but worthless personal experiences

It was YOU who asked me, what makes me sure in what I say. What can I draw from other than personal exprience?

 

[Illuminattile]

You don't believe in Darwin's theory of evolution?

Ah, you're new here.

An fantastic place in the clouds where everyone lives in perfect harmony and happiness for ever and ever? Sure.
We evolved from monkeys? That's ridiculous.

Damn that shit's fucked up

You don't believe in Darwin's theory of evolution?

lol are you serious? why would i believe in a theory so flawed that it makes aliens landed on earth and populated this planet look alot more plausible?, the day i see a creature evolve into something i would believe in evolution

An fantastic place in the clouds where everyone lives in perfect harmony and happiness for ever and ever? Sure.
We evolved from monkeys? That's ridiculous.

who said its up in the clouds? you've been watching to many movies man, and yes we evolved from monkeys is twice as rediculous,

lol i just feel sorry for the other monkeys and apes we see today for not being as fortunate as us to evolve into superior and more intelligent lifeforms like us, hmm i wonder why that is? i guess evolution did an enie meenie miny moe to decide who gets to evolve and who doesnt huh? this is freakin hilarious

say guys what will humans evolve to next? and who gets to evolve and who doesnt? im guessing one eyed giant monsters what about you?

It was YOU who asked me, what makes me sure in what I say. What can I draw from other than personal exprience?

sorry man you had me going there for a minute, i thought you really knew something i didnt

Trying addressing my point, rather than attempting to turn it round on me. Obviously I don't believe in a creator, so that doesn't actually affect me.

whats there to address? you think the purpose of life is to be a good kind person, i dont disagree with you on that only difference is i have faith in my creator along side that and you dont

If the message was communicated clearly, there would be so very many different religions and Gods over the course of human history.

this doesnt make sence

*Lights up a fat one*

now i see why you're a darwinist, but careful man, that fat one might just end up eradicating your last 3 remaining brain cells jp

yeah with your mouth wide open right under it huh?

Then again, homosexuality rules you out of heaven eh?

Ironic that while you preach, the gates are eternally locked to your kind

Man and Apes evolved from the same branch, we seperated paths during evolution and thats why there are different specials of apes and monkeys. Evolution takes millions of years to happen, its not a 5 year deal so we will never see something evolve (other then diseases) in our life time.

Apes survive because they're near the top of the food chain where they live, it wasn't until we started to hunt them was they in any real danger. If apes and humans lived in the same area (Europe for example) millions of years ago there would be no apes, but they don't, they live in jungles where few humans live in.

I find the evidence of evolution far greater than creationism, just the thought of humans and all the animals in the world were created instantly is illogical when if you look at the animal kingdom you can see how animals adapted to their enviroment.

Also, if there was a God why hasn't he/she/it sent a prophet in over 1600 years? You'd think with all the questions of faith that he would answer his/her/it's loved ones.

i dunno maybe that fat one really did destroy your last 3 remaining brain cells but taking a shit in your mouth aint homosexuality, but nice try you deserve a cookie for that, and who knows the gates of heaven could very much get locked up for me but than i might get a free pass to the planet of the apes

Real talk. What more can I say?

Teck's beliefs are straight up retarded.

Examples
'Evolution is a falsehood, we appeared from nowhere'
'One man shitting in another's man's mouth doesn't have a hint of homosexuality'

It appears that while I said that I had just lit up a fat one as a joke, you really have been smoking strong shit while snorting coke and taking regular hits of acid.

Man, what would your God say? (Bar fuck off, you faggot)
