As to your kudos, I don't give a shit what you do or do not kudos.  Your kudos are like the vomit of a dog -- not something to be sought for their own sake.


Ranting during one of your nightmare?  Alarm
It seems so considering that I never deny that the material world does not exist.
Didn't I said that matter exist as the last stage of creation and from here start the first stage of evolution?

Beside I also believe in both afterlife and reincarnation.
Permanent afterlife come once we reach the peak of evolution while reincarnations go on and on until we reach the peak of evolution and when that happen the afterlife is permanent putting an end to the continuous cycle of reincarnations.

Atheists are free to believe in anything they like but please don't go around saying that what they believe is based on evidence because that is not the case and that is also highlight by the fact that when I asked you for evidence you as usually put the burden of prove on me instead of answering the question.

Shame yog shame.  Diablo

I gave my reasons. That you still contend that I haven't in the face of my doing so just makes you an irrational twat.
