So you see christians need not fear death, most of us do have a fear of how we'll die.So he dragged everyone back from the void with an ultimatum: 'Love me or burn in Hell'? People who were now brought back and reject him get to die all over again and/or be tormented forever in the lake of fire?
I fail to see the cause for celebration.
Quote:Yes I have a fear of the way you look at death,You cling to the sinking ship that is the "SS Existence" not realising that the state of death is far more profound and simple than any God. I wouldn't wish the gift, no, the burden of eternal life on anyone. They'd go raving mad after a few million billion trillion years.
Quote:The next life I will have is one of no pain, trouble, fear, sickness or anything bad.And how is this a response to my thoughts on the afterlife? I told you, I don't want to live forever, one life-time is enough.
