I won't be able to discuss this right now without being warned
I understand that you feel the need to keep up your persona so I don't expect you to concede what we both know is true
lets just leave it there for now
In other words you are not able to present a point of view without attacking another person? How very interesting. Your mother would be proud.
come on now

OnlineLife Upon Death, you can discuss or state anything you want so long as you don't resort to ad hominems. They're irrelevant in any case.
A moron and an asshole and a jerk can all make valid points even though they're morons, assholes, and jerks. Calling them names doesn't refute their points.
Refute the argument being presented while leaving the irrelevant presenter out of the discussion and you won't run afoul of the rules.

It has been asserted that any belief like Christianity or one that places the supposed afterlife as the true goal, as life weary and thus somewhat nihilistic in spirit... that is in denial of this world they only justify themselves in life throught what they might expect to come after. Never really affirming this life and neglecting to see the reasons that seem to support this as likely the only system of being that provides any conscious experience. (towards the end this is more IMO).

Alright, this is turning into a pissing contest. Get back on-topic or I'm locking this thread.

I'm judging your actions here.
Plus. I grew up in a fundy Baptist home and attended a Baptist Bible College. I did a little homework you might say.

As can be seen here, I have been looking closely into the definition of nihilism.
I started this thread and belong in it.
