Surely you wouldn't have eternal darkness and stuff as you'd nolonger exist so there wouldn't be anything.
Bit like before you were born. Understand that ben but the thought of it terrifies me, to a certain extent. ps I knew I wouldn't keep away from this thread. |

Religion, whether or not you have a faith is directly linked to Oblivion.
A) You Beleive = NO Oblivion
B) You don't beleive = Oblivion.
But what is oblivion,........ it is nothing right, absolutely nothing. but for it to be recognised as nothing then it must be something.... :? :? :?

Atheist for me. I got married in a hotel and I won't get my daughter christened until she is old enough to make an informed decision of her own. I don't discourage my duaghter from having her own opinion on the matter.

I'm still not christened to this day, i wouldn't mind getting married in a church - it's just a nice building to me, but I won't take any religious oaths or anything.

as far as I can tell the bible is a story about date rape and a bastard? someones having a laugh somewhere
Mary gets pregnant by God, yet she doesnt know or remember a thing....sounds like date rape to me!!!
Then Jesus is born and his parents Mary and God arent married, thus making him a bastard!

i like to think i have someone looking over me, but i haven't really thought about afterlife. I don't really believe in heaven and hell either really.
As a whole though, in the past 2000 years or so, religion has played a major part in fucking up this world of ours.

I may be wrong but I think that Prof. Steven Hawkins said that in the future religion would be illegal, or something like that. I'm not thinking that he can see into the future, but he has a point in that it would stop wars and stuff. |

religion had its uses in centuries past, helped to offer a deterrent to criminals that they would be punished whether caught or not, but it has no real place in a civilised society.
With religion comes power - something that the top religious bods will be keen to hang on to, they will never let it go themselves, it can only be diminished by a population that no longer needs it.

I quite like the idea of being worshipped. Anybody want to sign up for the church of Benology? It's pretty light on rules.
