Poor Fundies.....Hell is A Literary Construct, Too!

In that case, I couldn't keep my mouth shut because I knew he needed to hear it. Not that it made a dent. Fortunately, his poor choices caught up with him. He had a breakdown and was forced into treatment.

Are you equating the detriment from a hard drug addiction to living life as an atheist?

But if you are an atheist and you are participating on a debate forum about the topic, then I say you have opened yourself up to hear what most religious believers consider the hard truth.

Likewise, speaking what you consider the hard truth opens you up to how others perceive and feel about it.

As I hold out hope that you will come to the realization that you simply become worm-food when you die. Wink

Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell
