• Welcome to The Cave of Dragonflies forums, where the smallest bugs live alongside the strongest dragons.

    Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.

    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

    Life after Death?

    The Christian God is a malevolent douchebag that I wouldn't want to worship even if I believed he was real.

    Life after Death?

    the thing that makes us conscious and different from plants and artificial intelligence is, in short, the brain. plants don't have brains, artificial intelligences don't have brains (though I guess that could be argued, but it's irrelevant in this case). brains allow awareness and...

    Life after Death?

    whoa, now. don't base your spirituality on facebook quizzes, dood. it is just about as silly as believing I'll respawn as My Favorite Scrubs Character when I kick the bucket which, obviously, is a pretty silly thing to believe

    Life after Death?

    what do you mean, "we know nothing about it"? we know *tons* of things about the human brain.

    Life after Death?

    Again, the fact that Christianity is about abandoning logic isn't an "insult." It's... something that is.

    Life after Death?

    ?????? Is this a common idea? Are most fundamentalist Christians against environmentalism? This is a terrible terrible thing to believe and also an example of why Christianity is detrimental to humanity But what about the fact that most animals are extremely complex things?? We are not fucking...

    Life after Death?

    Wait, what? Are you proposing that anything that can be thought about must exist? Like, are you seriously proposing that idea? I'm thinking about George Washington fighting Communists from a helicopter. That doesn't mean that I am accessing with my mind some actual far-off dimension in which...

    Life after Death?

    Oh, okay then. I was just a little worried that you legitimately believed some of the ideas you brought up. Back on topic, then! Afterlife.

    So long as you do actually believe the things you're arguing, it is.

    Life after Death?

    You can't just cross things out of the Bible and put new things in and expect nobody to notice. The Bible doesn't work like that.

    Life after Death?

    No, I am pretty sure the guys that wrote the bible meant it to be taken seriously. And so did the Christian church until recently when realized that believing every word of it made them sound pretty crazy. So they've toned it down a little, and you see churches do the whole "well it's actually...

    Evolution. (I can name quite a lot of other things but I don't think it'd be very necessary.)

    Life after Death?

    No, it's not. It's a quality. You can't be a good Christian without dismissing loads of logical concepts and ideas. By "a good Christian" I mean, of course, someone who accepts the Holy Bible as nonfiction. A full Christian.

    Life after Death?

    If you're bent on staying Christian and are afraid of hell, I can ease your troubles a little. Your God is supposed to be 100% benevolent, right? And he is the sole creator of the human brain/consciousness? And everything humans do is supposed to be all in God's plan, right? Taking this into...

    Life after Death?

    no, no afterlife in any way or form at all ever. not in the traditional sense, not some obscure "well not any of the *religious* afterlives, but maaybe if you look at it this way !" pseudo-supernatural way, not at all. once your brain stops letting you be aware of anything, that is it. you...
