I think about it a lot, and it usually brings me to a migraineThorn Bird said:i choose not to think that way. it may be terribly wrong, but i can't bear the thought of being separated from my daughter. so i believe it won't happen.
what are your thoughts, elpie?
It's in the main forum so I can just reply without thinking. You should also learn to quote.Thorn Bird said:why is that? and you don't have to participate, you know.
Thorn Bird said:sarcasmo, if you don't believe in life after death, then what do you believe? and why don't you believe in life after death? any particular reason? i'm just curious here. not trying to pick.
Aye. I can take a position and defend it to absurdity but I don't really have a solid personal view.elpmis said:that's the answer I anticipated from you
Sarcasmo said:I just don't. It doesn't make sense to me. I see no evidence anywhere of the supernatural or the divine. I look at people, where we've come from over thousands of years of learning and progressing, succeeding and failing, I see what happens to us on a daily basis, from brutal murders to war and natural disasters and more mundane accidents, I see these all of these things afflicting the faithful and the faithless, the guilty and the innocent, the old and the young. It's all the same, no matter what we believe or who we are. And all it indicates to me is that the world is a floating mass of rock in a huge universe where life happened to blossom, and where the chaos of random circumstance and coincidence dish out our fates without any discrimination whatsoever.
