I think living forever would be a curse, even in a place with only happiness.

For all you know, that christian guy died 20 years sooner because he thought eating charred bacon every day giving him cancer and fatness wouldn't matter since he would end up in heaven.

And that's only the tip of how twisted and horrible a stupid "I'm going to heaven!" mentality can get.

I despise religion as much as you, but try to remember what religion was for. Meant to give comfort to those afraid of dying, not rush them into it.

Religion: The First and Worst Explanation.
- Christopher Hitchens.

Whatever it was meant for, it's now useless and corrupted. So fuck that.

Holy shit, someone got sand up poxpower's vagina.

well if they beleive in what i do (no god, but you are reincarnated after death) then maybe they'll hope in there next life they won't have this problem.

I suppose you would have to ask him.

And then you would know whether he was a man of faith or a man of reason.

... and that would have nothing to do with atheism or theism in general.

I mean, I could make an assumption, but that would only be what I personally believed, not what is based in factual reality. You wouldn't have that factual reality until you had the opinion of 'a dude with cancer'. And I bet I could find 'a dude with cancer' who was happier viewing things with an atheist perspective instead of a theist perspective. So... whatever point you were trying to make here is moot.

I believe in something that I refer to as absolute-logic. This means that I believe in no religion whatsoever but solely in the most popular scientific theories that I myself feel that I can agree with. This also means that I believe in that everything that is, is logically and simply just due to a huge set of coincidences.

Through thinking in terms of this so-called absolute-logic, I, as a person originally opposing religion, found out that religion is actually a very good solution for the extremely complex questions without answers related to the questions regarding existence and more importantly existence of life and humanity. Religion was unintentionally developed as a tool for mankind when they encountered questions in which they could not accept or acquire an answer.

To me, I find it acceptable that people believe in a religion in order to live in some kind of denial related to our intelligence. Religion is a tool that requires dedicated true belief in order for it to work. Without it, you will through absolute-logic figure out and believe in that there is truly only one sadistic end to everything where everything that has once been won't mean anything, and who wants to live their life knowing that?

Why does everyone think that religious people are just retarded, and oblivious to the "truth"?
The Truth of the matter is my friends, no one knows the truth, no one can know, or will know until you die, and thats what it all boils down too, no matter what you think up to say.

He would want to go to heaven of course.... but you can't always get what you want..... especially if what you want is ficticious.

In my religion after i die I'm going to hentai land where idiots like me go frolic and play.
We would bleed acid rainbows and trip on Extacy till daylights end.

I'm to lazy to type down everything but that's some of the stuff that would happen to me later in the afterlife.

I will also own a pitchfork that bleeds fire and candie

wtf is a soup atheist!?

I think deep down most ppl are more agnostic then athiest i doubt very much that ppl want to believe they are going knowhere when they die these days most social factors in western countries especially stop you from believing in god as we are taught to look at fact rather then to believe in what we are told and questioning the truth is one of the things that makes ppl human but altho ppl may not believe in god they will always be open to the concept of the afterlife as it helps us deal with death bellieving that our friends and family are not gone forever and ppl fear most what they cant see which is y they try to build a picture of the unknown such as death
