Is There a Scientific Basis for an Afterlife?

[fr0d0]

I answered the question first asked Rabbit: You are using strange literalist interpretations that are nothing near to my own/ mainstream Christianity. I cannot answer as those aren't applicable.

All denominations of Christianity adhere to the Nicene Crede. Those that do not are not considered Christian churches. Mormonism has never been a Christian Church by a long stretch of the imagination. Even yours.

I was a pentecostal and they do indeed agree with the principle of the trinity.

(Just to let you know I'm finding this incredibly tiresome)

(My bolding for emphasis).

Was? What are you now? Non-denomination but you nevertheless accept the 'Nicene Crede' and are therefore, a Christian?

I'm just asking the above question because I'm, basically, curious.

Here's a cheap and easy reference. A book called "Spook, Science Tackles the Afterlife" by Mary Roach

Quote for the page: Spook is about all manner of enterprising, brave, occasionally peculiar people -- from doctors to sheep ranchers -- who have tried to use science to pin down that most floaty question, What happens when we die? Can we prove there's a soul or an afterlife?

It'll leave you with some questions, but it's an interesting read.

I believe what I first believed as a Salvationist. I don't attend any regular church meetings right now.

You are just repeating your own mantra. Show me were my question made bible interpretations.

To help you out a bit with this apparently daunting task, I've put it in easy multiple choice form for you. Just place your mark at the good answer:

1. Does the bible give a coherent explanation of the fossil record?

(a) yes, biblical account explicitly eplains the fossil record
(b) no, biblical account does not give any explanation of the fossil record
© none of the above

2. Does the bible give a coherent explanation why kid cancer is in this world alongside an all-good all-powerfull god?
(a) Yes, the bible fully eplains why kid cancer is provided to this world by an all-good all-powerfull god
(b) No, the bible fails completely to explain this
© None of the above

3. Does the bible explain how it can be that Nazareth did not exist at the time of Jesus' alleged birth
(a) Yes
(b) No
© All of the above, in some mystic way you mortals can't grasp
(d) I feel no need to answer this question, because I am right by default

4. Does the bible explain how moral naturally arises in primate groups?
(a) Yes
(b) No
© Sorry, what is your question again?
(d) I refer to dogma that primate groups have no moral

5. Does the bible explain how 13.7 billion years can be squeezed in just one week?
(a) Yes, by magical numerology and advanced coding techniques that is unnoticably present throughout the bible but that simply is beyond ye simple mortals
(b) Yes, but don't ask me how
© No, but don't tell the rabbit
(d) find out yourself

Just read up on the subject. You have been non-trinitarian but you were unaware??

(Just to let you know I'm finding this incredibly tiresome)

Could it be that your Highness experiences some unease as he is confronted with opinions that require argumentative treatment?

Well....it's an answer...me thinks. It certainly is colourfull. It can be a first step. We even may be able to work our way through this from this point onwards. Well, quite positive really.

LOL

U so funny. Hopefully this event will precede my suicide.

[Purple Rabbit]

As a starter, since suicide might be lurking around the corner I think we should no longer procrastinate and proceed immediately with the dull and tedious task of extracting argument from debating partners, how about elaborating on the deeper meaning of biblical account regarding moral within primate groups?

[Purple Rabbit]

Well, I guess the great frød is confident that his argumentam ad declared dullness, a new fallacy on the block that tries to fight of argument of opponents in debate with moral judgements on the dullness of the arguments of that opponent, suffices as a response. Either that or the guy has hung himself.
