Quote:Why would someone believe that it somehow continues to exist on its own?Because they want to live forever, which of course cannot happen. Pure wishful thinking. Fear of death is not unusual, since we are aware that our existence is limited. Many try to hide from it by ignoring reality and hiding behind religion. Reality remains unchanged and our existence will still ultimately end. Beliefs change nothing. This they fear and deny.
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.
