RE: Fear of death

January 2, 2012 at 4:39 pm

Quote:However as a christian I see a need for the non believer to have a fear of death. By the way my sentience is ever lasting, eternal, forever and ect. I will enjoy it especially on the other side.

Not if you're wrong about Allah or Thor or Zeus. For all we know, you end up in hell and non believers go to heaven. Goes both ways. You have a reason to fear if Islam is the correct religion.

As an atheist, I see no reason to fear death. Death is the end of biological function and I am biological. Death is a natural part of my existence. Nothing to fear. Just won't exist anymore.

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.
