Questions for theists.

[Blam!]

Well he said he doesn't know - no claim = no burden.

Ah.. He did said that. However, I brought "burden of proof" out of my assumption that chadster1976's belief of Roman Catholicism may differ otherwise than science. But I really don't know chadster1976's belief in an afterlife through by his perspective of Roman Catholicism. I'll have to ask him directly, I suppose.

I didn't claim there is an afterlife, only that WE don't know. I stand by that.

But what do you stand by through the perspective of your own belief, Roman Catholicism?

Saying you don't know the answer to a question is an important part of science.

Strongly agreed.

It leads us to experiment and seek the truth.

Agreed - But science didn't have reliable research on an afterlife ever since many years despite the theists' extraordinary claims of an afterlife. That alone conclude me that discovery of an afterlife is most unlikely or never existed in first place. Or maybe I'm biased.

To blindly say "nothing happens" closes the door to potential knowledge.

Agreed. However, the ones making extraordinary claims of an afterlife/the claims of NDE may be an afterlife without reliable evidence of all means - are not scientific and should be dismissed.

I guess we're back to position where "we don't know" but unlikely, most unlikely to have science discover an afterlife that may linked to the claims of Roman Catholicism, Christianity, Islam, and more religions accountable for.

But nicely said, Chadster.
