Why would you even take a chance, not believing in God ? I will be in church before the day is up.. Happy Sunday!!!!



Sunday is my day of rest. I sure am not going to spend it in church praying to a god I do not believe in. I have more important things to do and places to go.


 


Let me rephrase what you should have said, I have things I THINK ARE MORE IMPORTANT to do and places I THINK ARE MORE IMPORTANT to go too.  Your ego is large and the lake awaits you.  We pray for even you so enjoy your Sunday.

Let us say I am wrong and you are right about god, hell etc etc etc.


I must say.. I think I would rather spend the time in hell than with you in heaven....I don't think I could stand eternity surrounded by self righteous believers..... At least in hell the conversations with be more spirited..besids.. I think hell will be like a huge hot tub... yeah it may be uncomfortable at first.. but eventually it will feel good.

Gosh, Sevo, i guess I feel burdened for you, but their are so many people that say they are athiest but I think they are really agnostic.  You may be totally athiest, I don't know you, but I do know that your heart is hard and its sad.  Its a shame, you are smart and take the time to investigate stuff, maybe you should really look into a true chrisitian religion just to see and see if you can find some hope. 


I am just wondering.  Do you think you die and just become mulch???

Umm.. well considering  modern embalming techniques and sealed coffins.. you don't become mulch as much as kind of a putrified soup. But, thanks for asking.

So what happens to your soul or do you believe you don't have one.  My curiosity to this is do you think you just die and that's the end.

Whatever, there are people that believe all kinds of goofy crap.    And imagining that you DON't have a soul, doesn't make it so.

Sevo, I have been asking you the question, what happens to you after you die???? That is what I am trying to figure out.  Are you lacking hope, do you think this is it???? I am not trying to berade (sic) you, I just want to understand why you think the way you do about life.  Do you believe in reincarnation?


CATGIRL


Not being mean or judgemental, obviously I feel there is more too it, but I am just trying to understand.

Sevo,


Can you answer my question?  I was just curious, that after you pass, what happens, I know you said you wanted to be creamated, but then what happens.  Is that it???  Read the post a couple b/4. 


I am not asking to slam or be judgemental,  I am just curious and trying to understand.

I can not speak for Servo but as for me, once you die, that is it.  Your mind is gone, your body will rot, unless you are creamated.


People talk of your soul.........what is or even where is your soul?  As an ER nurse, I am pretty much aquainted with the human body and I am sure there is no organ called the soul. Is the soul in your mind? Well then again, your mind is dead, so no soul.


Lets face it, when you die that is the end, you do not go to some heaven and sit with god, because there is no god; or hell where you burn forever, because there is no devil; and you are not reunited with your dead loved ones or others that have died before you.


When you die it is THE END

Really as an ER nurse who has seen people die you cannot tell when the soul departs.  As an ICU Trauma nurse for 25 plus years I have certainly seen the soul leave in the expression on the face, the atmoshpere in the room, the peace that is found.  Oh and they may or may not be clinically dead when the soul goes.  I am not a bible thumper just a very spiritual person and have seen it in my own loved ones as well as patients.  I personally believe a physics explaination for Gods which makes them an 11th dimensional being and that we in three dimensions cannot perceive them around us or any of the others in the infinite dimensions that exist.  So when we pass we just go to another dimension and experience another reality hopefully working towards being a more balanced and centered entity, i prefer this to harps and angel wings.  See the movie "What dreams may come"  So Sevo you can experience another reality far far away from the antagonists on this site.  Amen brother I'm with you!

Christians want you to believe that there is someone who is sitting in "heaven" somewhere watching and knowing about everyone on earth. He has 10 rules that he wants you to follow, and if you break any of these rules, he has a very bad place for you to go to. In this place you will burn and scream with pain for all eternity................But he loves you.


Does this make sense?

It does makes sense, that's why there is Heaven, for those who followed his commandments, there you go, and hell where you will rot if you are otherwise...

But if he loves you why would he send you to hell?  Sounds like a pretty mean SOB to me.

GOD doesn't send you to hell, you go there on your own free will.  Its all about choices.  To put it in a secular way, do you follow the laws and rules created by man?  Then to say that you won't steal, you won't lust or covet.  What is the difference.  His 10 commandments are much easier to follow then law by man.


The reason why people do not believe, they do not have blind faith, unless they can feel or touch, they cannot believe.  That's sad.

Quoting Psalm 14:1 to shame an athiest is kind of futile... don't you think??


And I am hardly a fool.


SEVOFLURANE


I didn't mean to shame you, or anyone. Don't worry about hardly being a fool, just keep working on it and you'll get better at it. Perhaps it is the fluoromethyl hexafluoroisopropyl ether that is holding you back. I suggest you try nitrous and narcotics instead, your liver will thank you.

Of course god does not send you to hell.........there is no god and there is no hell. Blind faith.....you mean like the men who followed Hitler, Jim Jones (Religious fanatic) or Stalin?


No you can not see air, but the fact that air is there can be scientificly proven.  There is no scientific proof of god's existance.  There is no proof of god especially in that fictional book the bible. Science has already proved that the earth is older than the bible says, and the oldest fossilized footprints of man are also older than the bible says the earth is. 


Religion is for people who can not think for themselves.

God does love us, He doesnt send us to hell unless we basically deny his existance. We are all bad, we are all unperfect. God knew that would happen when he gave us free will. But he still loves us and wants us to spend eternity in heaven with him. The simple beleif that Jesus died and rose again (TO PAY FOR OUR SINS) is all He asks of us.

God doesn't send anyone to Hell. You are headed that way on your own. He DOES provide a way out. Your choice - Heaven or Hell.

Why the hostility? Did I claim not to be a fool? What does "normal" have to do with any of this? My interest in this discussion has very little to do with the content of anyone's opinion and I have not even stated my own position regarding believing versus atheism. I find the words people use to express their opinions and the ways they put those words together to attempt to convey meaning, absolutely fascinating. So, think about that.

Well, I happen to believe there is a God, but aside from that, people will choose to believe or not believe.  I suppose when at the end, it is all revealed...

I am the missing link because I think for myself? That does not make sense.  f you believe in god, you do not believe in evolution so therefore no missing link.
