Only those who worship this life with all of their being see death as an absolute or take offense when one does not fear it as they do. Know God does not sacredly value your understanding of life as you do. For He sees our deaths in this life as are our births into eternity. Why prolong our labor pains any longer than we need to endure them? If you have made your choice or had the oppertunity to do so then the purpose of your time here has passed.
Do you fear going into oblivion when you die? That you're nothing but a biological speck? Religion always comes back to death. That tells me a lot you know.
I live as long as I can because as far as I know, it's the only one I've got. Not going to waste it hoping for another one.
Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence - Carl Sagan
Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity.
Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist.
You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.
