Maxidataxi Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 Thinking about how we started helps a great deal in thinking about how we end. Those that do not believe in religion will tell you that beings were created from nothing. Some aethiest reading this will start running in circles and bring up the 'Theory of Evolution' -which states that we humans evolved from other creatures which proves our existance-, and in turn any person with a brain can conclude from that theory that x evolved from y and y evolved from s and s evolved from g...etc which will reach a dead end eventually to this one creature that everything evolved from, now the question is, how the hell did that creature exist? No matter what you use , physics , chemistry and even math you will never get to a discovery that something existed from nothing. Also , scientifically , an existance will never really become a non-existance. When a body decomposes it is not really good , a series of energy changes start happing transfering solid to liquid then to gas then that gas travels up and eventually turns to liquid and joins the circle of life of constant existance and that body is never really gone poof , it may change but its still there. Ive read something through this topic from a user which states something about 'Appeal to consequences'and linked to wikipedia. I quote this from wikipedia , If P, then Q will occur. Q is undesirable. Therefore, P is not true. Therefore that user is saying we do not believe in things just ending because we do not like the thought. I would like to disagree with him because this can also be the other way around. The case can also be that a person hates the fact that he has to do certain things so he may succeed in the after life (religion) thus making him not believe in any existance of an afterlife. One more thing. Aethiests do no believe in a human having a soul, because if they do then they would agree that we are not just a result from some sort of evolution and we can be more than just flesh and bones. A Soul is a non-materialistic thing which can not be proved by science and when an aethiest believes in a soul it means he believes in things that cannot be proved by science for example , religion. The top scientests around the world have spent years and years of research and study of 'Cloning', the duplication of a creature. So far cloning has worked with animals but has not worked for humans, WHY?!!. Why hasnt it worked for humans , we are extremely close in the anatomy of animals we are both flesh and bones and a heart and a brain , why havent the cloning attempts only worked on animals but not on HUMANS?!. Now religion states that ANIMALS do not have an afterlife , obviously they dont , animals dont know what the hell is going on other than following there "feed , mate , reproduce" senses. Religion also states that animals do not have Souls. A small kid can connect the dots why cant you? Join the movement^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ground of course. I mean it, all the ingredients for life were here, on this planet billions of years ago which gave rise to the first sequences of life, and then, the first life. The first organism did not just sprout out of nothing like you suggest. Let me give you an analogy. Where does steel come from? How can it exist if it didn't before? Its simple, you mine the necessary ingredients (iron ore and carbon [coal]) give the right conditions (around 1000 degrees celcius) and, hey presto, you have molten steel. Again, evolution did not start with the spontaneous creation of one whole, fully functionng organism. Put 2 and 2 together and it's logically obvious. Bolded Statement 2: How do you know for sure that humans have not been cloned? You can't. Do you really think that those performing the cloning would want that information leaked? Of course not, think of the outrage from people such as yourself and many others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first organism did not just sprout out of nothing like you suggest. Alright so you are saying that organisms evolved from a solid (in your case the ground) which had a certain molecular faliure thus turning into an organism with a brain etc... I dont disagree with that and its more logical than half the excuses i hear but the question is , where did the solid (in your case the ground) come from? How do you know for sure that humans have not been cloned? You can't. Do you really think that those performing the cloning would want that information leaked? Of course not, think of the outrage from people such as yourself and many others. I can say the same thing to an aethiest , "UH what if there is scientific proof that there is heaven and hell but they just dont wanna give it out". I dont see how an educated person would really keep something like that in and not change the whole world. Why would we be outraged anyways ? I would so love to see cloning work on a human being even if it would dissapoint me. Loosing a debate can be more pleasing than winning one , because when you win one you know knew you are right the whole time. But by loosing one you are happy to know you are now right Join the movement^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But by loosing one you are happy to know you are now right 1: The Big Bang. Now lets not turn this into a religious argument, they are not allowed. 2: Now i'm not a narrow minded person so i'd happily hear any evidence you can muster, just PM me, dont post it here, because religious arguments are not allowed. 3: I don't mean you specifically. Never underestimate the lengths opinionated zealots will go to. Morality is a funny thing, people will spread hate and anger to fight for something they believe is right. Kind of defeats the purpose of trying to do the morally right thing, don't you think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxidataxi Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 1- This is why i stated in my first post that people will start "running in circles with me" , and which is exactly what is happening is , we will return to the start by me asking you how did the big bang exist what caused the big bang , and what made what caused the big bang. 2- Feeling is mutual.

It's just an unworthy and waste-of-time argument so lets both of us not waste any more of our time on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gamemonster Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 We do not die.when our body stop functioning our souls go somewhere else it doesn't matter where heaven, hell, or into antoher person.the matter is as your body stops your soul doesn't so you have no choice to live forever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheepdean Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 afer i die, millions will mourn and the earth will implode from greif. that or something about worm food... Back by popular demand!And I guess I just wanted to tell you, as the light starts to fade, that you aree the reason, that I am not afraid, and I guess I just wanted to mention, as the heavens will fall, that we will be together soon if we will be anything at all.

honeo Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 Close your eyes.... Thats what happens when you die Wrong. I can hear music and feel the chair beneath me & I am conscious of my existance. I can still think. When you die, you lose all thoughts and knowledge and consciousness. It's more like sleep but without the dreams. I agree with what both of you said. You will feel nothing, hear nothing, and see nothing. You will lose all state of being and consciousness. That is one of my theory's. Personally, I think when you die your life will play back to you. It will play back to you the happy/funny/(anything good) times. Then after that? Who knows, no one does. Maybe you go to a place where all the dead go. (A parallel universe maybe?), a dream world (kind of like the Matrix), or reincarnation. The first two seem hard to grasp, but who knows, none of us have died and lived to tell about it. Reincarnation, as crazy as it seems, seems very logical in my opinion. You either get reincarnated as another human being, or an animal. This has to do with your "Soul." These are just my thoughts.

Joordaan Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 I think that all souls of the departed go to somewhere that is closer than we think, but will never be able to get to... Wow, that sounded goth-ish.. Maybe, the sun?! :ohnoes: Pay it forward! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
