Wish

[Simon Moon]

Are you content with the idea of permanent death?(materialistic world view). And isn't Ironical that pride and independence can only brings us "nothing"?

It doesn't matter to me what I am "content with" believing. I don't want to believe things because they may make me happy, I want to believe things that are true.

I am perfectly content with not having an afterlife, since that is what the evidence points to. In fact, I feel that, if there were an afterlife, that would it belittle this one. As if this life was nothing more than a place o wipe my feet while waiting for the "real life".

I only am concerned with having as many true beliefs as possible, and as few false beliefs.

And the single best method that can actually be shown to be a path to truth, is demonstrable evidence, reasoned argument and valid/sound logic.

Ancient texts, faith, personal experiences, anecdotal evidence, wishful thinking, are all bad reasons to believe a claim.

Are there people here who dont believe in gods idea and believe in godless afterlife? Isn't hypocritical to do so, as magic once accepted has no boundaries.

There are all sorts of reasons people have beliefs, some of them good, some not.

Not all atheists are rational, evidence based thinkers. Some believe in all sorts of unsupported woo. Does it make them hypocrites? No. It just makes them irrational thinkers to believe in a godless afterlife.
