Quandary
#36
RE: Quandary
Thanks for sharing Smile

I don't see the connection with an afterlife at all, personally. We have very good explanations for how we happened to come about as a species, and we were not the goal of that mechanism. Did everything along the evolutionary tree get an afterlife too, or did it just start happening when humans came about?

The most plausible "God" scenario to me is that this is a computer simulation, and so "God" is the programmer. We happened to come about as part of this simulation and have somehow become self aware. Maybe this kind of thing has been going on in computer simulations we have run, making us "gods".

I'm not criticising you, you're of course entitled to believe whatever you want Smile I'm just giving my take on things, if you're interested. If you're not, I'll shut my stupid pie hole!
