Wow do you see differently then I write.:lol: I said this Death anxiety seems to be behind most belief in any afterlife

And no I can't share my reason for believing in an afterlife because I do not believe in one.:tongue:




Whoops, I must be in debating mode. Seeing arguments where there are none...:crazy:

while I agree that Agnosticism is somewhat ironic,
(would a true Agnostic even call him/her-self an Agnostic?)
we all know that Jesus loves everyone and everything

Fucking pathetic!

Not true. Put your face under my foot and you can see me take a stand.

I am not confused I am undecided. Not having evidence that can create a decision in the matter. What is so difficult for you to understand?

I don't quite understand how one can be so undecided.
Surely one couldn't straddle the fence all of the time.
I can only imagine that would be difficult, to say the least.

dorkus said:
Nirvana literally means non-burning. Desire fuels Samsara which means friction creates movement or life. So for many buddhists it is the exact opposite. They long for non-existence, but fear being reborn. Not saying this is an official buddhist belief or anything, but it seems too simplified to claim that people believe in an afterlife ONLY because they can't cope with the thought of not being.




just a small clarification
the Buddha warned that longing for non-existence is just as bad as longing for existence. I've always had trouble with integrating that with the teaching of Nirvana.

That really depends on how you define atheism.

Everyone believes that they have the "correct" religion, and that they may invest emotion/resolve in their belief system justly. In a few words they do have the correct beliefs; every last one of them. The only real truth anyone holds in regards to religion is that we are all agnostics. We all have opposing/supplementing beliefs that will through action of paradox, never be quantified while we're alive. Logically you may debunk a religious aspect but you can never truly 100% disprove it. Say what you want but you're undeniably an agnostic whether you like it or not.

"We are going to die, and that makes us the lucky ones. Most people are never going to die because they are never going to be born. The potential people who could have been here in my place but who will in fact never see the light of day outnumber the sand grains of Arabia. Certainly those unborn ghosts include greater poets than Keats, scientists greater than Newton. We know this because the set of possible people allowed by our DNA so massively exceeds the set of actual people. In the teeth of these stupefying odds it is you and I, in our ordinariness, that are here." - Richard Dawkins
