So far we knew that abstract things can not be touched, smelled, seen, heard and most of all killed.
Considering that consciousness is abstract by nature then she suppose to be immune from death but this theory is not longer valid because atheists think that the rule that applies to abstract things does not apply to consciousness.
We always learn something new, dont we?

How is consciousness an abstract thing? There is evidence that it has a tangible reality (ie qualia). Before you said that it was energy. Energy is not an abstract thing. It has a real existence and can be measured by scientists. So which is it? Conceptual or tangible?

No, I don't always learn new things, and I've yet to learn a single new thing since we started this debate (except about your process of reasoning). But I'm all ears if you care to enlighten me.

History however shows that in the long term things are different.
It is because most people behave like sheeps.

They are afraid of the unknown so they stick to the shepherd not knowing that the shephard will lead them to the slaughter house.

I'm enjoying myself (for the time being). Just FYI, I always make my own mind up about people. Tabula rasa, man. It's up to you to draw something interesting on it.

Ah, yes, the perils of conformity. You don't wan't to be a lemming... and you don't want to be a sheep. But then again, you don't want to go walk off a cliff because everyone else around you gathers around a shepherd. You may be a nonconformist in this case, but it doesn't demonstrate that you are any wiser than your brethren in the flock. Nonconformity for its own sake just isn't that impressive.

As Nietzsche put it: "Free from what?" Your eyes should tell me brightly, "Free for what!"
