I hope It's not a coincidence in the same way as this: http://mediaexposed.tumblr.com/post/3136...etc-before

Or how Joan Rivers was born in 1933, died at 81, on the same day Beyonce turned 33 (She was born in 1981). She died a couple months after she said Obama was gay and his wife is a tranny.

I'm glad this idiot was banned. So stupid it's not even funny. I only like the stupids that ARE funny.

His necroposting was kind of unnerving. But he had some really stupid things to say. There was certainly potential for a kingsized dork.

Exactly one month after his death I am having this dream about him and this is how I find out?! I am really wanting to know what all my other fellow Atheist's think about all of this...

It could have been a supernatural experience. God could have been waking you up to his existence.

Why do you rule out the flying spaghetti monster?

Many testify to this type of experience drawing them to God. If it's from God it will touch your heart as well as your mind.

There is as much evidence for this being an experience from the xian god as there is for any god that has ever existed, that is to say: none.
I could just as easily claim that this is Odin calling her to Valhalla and I would be just as justified in believing it as the xian god, again, that is to say: not at all.
'The more I learn about people the more I like my dog'- Mark Twain

'You can have all the faith you want in spirits, and the afterlife, and heaven and hell, but when it comes to this world, don't be an idiot. Cause you can tell me you put your faith in God to put you through the day, but when it comes time to cross the road, I know you look both ways.' - Dr House

“Young earth creationism is essentially the position that all of modern science, 90% of living scientists and 98% of living biologists, all major university biology departments, every major science journal, the American Academy of Sciences, and every major science organization in the world, are all wrong regarding the origins and development of life….but one particular tribe of uneducated, bronze aged, goat herders got it exactly right.” - Chuck Easttom

"If my good friend Doctor Gasparri speaks badly of my mother, he can expect to get punched.....You cannot provoke. You cannot insult the faith of others. You cannot make fun of the faith of others. There is a limit." - Pope Francis on freedom of speech

So, god is telling people in their heads, "Hey, I just killed your relative. See I do exist!"

If you begin with the assumption that there is no God, then you'll come up with the conclusion that this experience didn't involve God.
