I sometimes feel afraid that when I die I won't go anywhere. I'll just dissapear forever. And I stay up sometimes for a very long time scared that I won't go anywhere. And why were we put down here? There is no reason I can figure this out. My mom says that we were put down here for understanding of gods creations. But all that I realy see is just work and sleep. She also said that we have been put down here to enjoy gods beauty. That is my biggest fesr of all. I'm just scared, just scared.
i dont understand christianity, if i sin but the ask god for forgivnes ill be ok? So if i am a musilim and i have just killed a frew hundred people and ask for forgivness and say that jesus is my true savior il be in hevon? well what about satan? what if he wants forgiveness? why cant god forgive him? is god holding a grudge? but hay i thought holding grudges was a sin! GODS A SINNER! or is this just a pupet show for all to watch, nothing exsists after death only your spirit.
You think your afraid of no afterlife? Then belive this: There is something called "Predestantion" that states that our "Souls" destionation from birth.
Basically----> Heaven or Hell, already chosen, nothing you can do to change it, deal with it, fear it.
Of corse that doesn't nessesaraly mean it's true, but all I'm saying is, if enough people agree on it's existance, no matter how rediculous it might sound, it probably exists.
Davidyang, first off, if you are an Atheist, you just said something incredibly stupid. Atheists all believe, that a BIG BANG just so happened to create animals, earth, etc. Which all fit together so much! The thought that a Bang could just... Create things is insane! So, if you are an Atheist, it wouldn't be TO surprising to see a stone looking like an animal. But, if you are not, I can't say anything.
I have never understood why people refuse to consider the possibility that God started the Big Bang. There's your reason why something like that would happen.
First of all, there is no way that we can prove what happened at the beginning of time scientifically, because to do that we would have to recreate the start of the universe.
Second, the fact that we are here in the first place seems to pefect to be random...
Third, that nothing has destroyed us in thousands of years proves (to me) that someone (or something, depending on how you look at it) has control ove everything.
Well, anyway, here's what I was thinking. There are essentially three groups of people: those who believe in heaven, those who don't, and those who aren't sure. Since we are talking about knowledge of the afterlife, I have to throw out Agnostics (sorry Ash). Anyone who believes in heaven might have some idea of what it's like, but they don't know anything. There are no descriptions of what it's like - what it looks like, what you do all day, if you get to see loved ones, etc. But no one knows. I, on the other hand, know for sure what the afterlife will be like - nothing! I don't have to describe anything at all, you just don't exist anymore. Could it be that I know more about the afterlife than even the holiest of holy people?
No worries! Even though I still stick by Agnosticism, I know it's a weak stance if any at all. There are just two or three things that keep me holding on to possible higher being's existence. Maybe you can help me clear this one up.
To me the Golden number (phi) is remarkable. How can such a perfection in math and nature (combined) exist due to chaos? Or am I just not viewing this from the right angle?
What I'm saying, though, is that my idea of the afterlife is more clear than one that assumes we continue existing. That's the only point I was trying to make. I certainly realize there are many religious documents that refer to heaven. I was thinking about the golden number just a few days ago, Asherlee. I watched this movie called pi (I can't do the symbol here, but you know, "ie" as we say it). I think, well... hang on...
