What is so difficult in accepting that other people have different ideas than you?

Any article that tries to tell me what the afterlife looks like without first proving the afterlife exists isn't worth reading. And anecdotal "evidence" isn't really evidence.

Also,



Plus, you basically just reduced your faith to an emotional crutch for people with issues. Nice work.

So... a grieving father suffers from delirium in his attempt to cope with the death of his son?

you guys have no faith.

I don't.
With good enough personal reasons for me.

you guys have no faith.

and why should we have faith?

I'm not saying you should or have to.

I'm just saying I feel bad for you if your outlook on life and the afterlife is as bleak as some of you here make it seem.

the perceived absence of an afterlife doesnt necessarily beget a bleak outlook. if anything, it serves to emphasize the beauty of our impermanence, and gives greater meaning to the transient world

See, it's things like this that make people think you are a troll. You make threads calling out atheists because a bus burned down but a bible survived, claiming it's a miracle and proof of god's existence while every person with a basic understanding of science can explain this perfectly natural and common occurence.

Then, you somehow think you're making a point by referencing a book written by a woman who is either delusional as a result of grief, or who is a lying scammer making money out of fools who buy into such cheap stories because it fills a void they are too scared to address with logic and reason.

I personally have little to no esteem for religion and think it is no more valuable than fairy tales, but I am all in favor of living and letting live as long as it doesn't harm others. You are welcome to have these opinions and be a Christian, but do realise that it's things like this that make people think you are just a troll.

Prove to me heaven isn't real.

Actually, just prove to me ANY afterlife isn't real.

Until then, you can call me a troll all you like. But you're wrong.

Hur durr religion
You know maybe you would have a better life if you completely focused on yourself and those around and not some book

That would make me a selfish asshat like most of you are on here.

My family and God comes before myself in all aspects of my life.

Can't prove it to you because you guys would just call me "delusional" or "crazy".

But I know its true for 100% fact from some experiences I've had.

this is an interesting response. before i parted ways with the church, i had a youth pastor who claimed that he had a supernatural experience that converted him to being a full-fledged believer. his story went that he was driving on the road one night, i think to another venue on his rodeo circuit, and that a "spirit" of sorts was suddenly in his passenger seat; he believed it to be a vision of Christ, and claimed that he could smell the blood from His wounds and physically feel His presence.

to this day, i believe that my old pastor is an earnest man, and that he legitimately did have some sort of odd experience. beyond that, i make no pretensions- but its certainly intriguing. theres a distinct possibility that he was very high, but again, i will make no remarks regarding that.

PSU stop. You're making Rocket, HurtfulTurkey and I look bad.

me*

sorry i kinda couldnt resist
