I don't understand why so many Deists believe there's an afterlife.
If all you believe is that God created you and then peaced the fuck out afterwards, never interacting with humanity again, why do you believe that after you die it will be anything more than what atheists believe happens after death?
Even more implausible, how come it seems to me that there are so many deists that believe in heaven as the bible describes? There are so many different concepts of a "heaven" in all the other different religions alone, how could you possibly claim that you are a deist and believe that all is good after you die and you will go to heaven and do the exact same thing the Christians think they'll do.
Seems like the cop-out version of christianity, and other religious teachings honestly.
"Wouldn't it be great if I could still claim to be rational minded, got out of following or doing any of the bullshit in the bible, and still got 100% of the reward no matter what?"
[Disclaimer: Obviously I am not lumping all Deists in to this ideology, but a good majority have the same thought processing as this, except they wrap it up in a let-me-rephrase-so-i'm-not-wrong blanket]

Which is better:
To die with ignorance, or to live with intelligence?
Truth doesn't accommodate to personal opinions.
The choice is yours.

The more questions you ask, the more you realize that disagreement is inevitable, and communication of this disagreement, irrelevant.
