neither... no heaven or hell and certainly no waiting virgins the difference is the atheist is not confused about this while the deists can act upon the most astonishing delusions
Whoa, whoa, hold on there partner! You're talking crazy talk there. Next thing you'll tell us that there is no Narnia, and no Middle Earth, and no Neverland, and no Naboo, and no Alderaan (ok, ok, bad example), when I KNOW those are true because my parents TOLD me they are true! By the way, if any of you see my meds please tell me, since I seemed to have misplaced them.
Fox, like me, I bet you are too ETHICAL to feel guilt-free about going to a magic paradise in the sky, while great people like Gandhi, Ben Franklin, your non-believing relatives, etc. get brutally tortured forever for simply making the honest mistake of believing in science and picking a different invisible superhero - in other words, the GUILT of being in "heaven" would be too great for you to stand, while people even better than you suffer a worse fate. Your sense of fairness is just too great to believe in such a disgusting place. Too bad this "Jesus" fellow is not moral enough, or powerful enough (unlike advertised), to come up with a better penal system for those very moral individuals who simply think differently than him. A sad person, really.
"Uncaring"!? "Uncaring"!? But, but, but, I'm special because the creator of the universe (God/Jesus) loves me! I'm special because Jesus doesn't love MOST people, since MOST people are going to end up in the torture chamber ("hell") that Jesus and his dad created and allow to flourish (apparently.) Too bad Jesus doesn't believe in second chances.
With 72 virgins to rape (you don't have to get their approval, or they are mind-controlled somehow - sex slaves) it's basically just a big brothel in the sky. A good reward if you fight for Mohammad, and like Qur'an 8:41 says, give a certain percentage of the booty you plunder to Mohammad. - - - Updated - - - Thanks for that clarification, Mohammad.
If there is a "heaven", then I'd think that Atheists would have a better chance of getting there than Muslims and Christians, because atheists aren't immoral enough to approve of, and give to their impressionable young children, a book that says to kill them if they turn out GAY. Atheists are better parents in that sense.
have not seen your meds but saw all those other places faithfully represented at the local 12 screen cinema.... some times in 3d!!!! with hot buttered popcorn... thats paradise... sans virgins who looked to be in short supply
By the way, "virgins" is a mistranslation, it's actually "Virginians": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lhmwcmOPemk Too bad for Osama.
Lacking the ability to prove that Heaven exsists leave us all to speculate. I speculate that we all go to the same place.... a grave... an urn... die alone never to be found and become food for the local wildlife.
But isn't it peaceful to think that some bird that pecks away at your corpse will crap you out in-flight over some unforeseen place to start the cycle of life all over again?
I must assume you meant to say theist not deist. It's also fun to note that while Muslim men are supposed to get virgins you know what the women get? Their husbands back, yeah, nothing man made about that.
I always wondered how the women got to their heaven being just rape objects and all. Apparently their god enjoys watching half of its creation rape and beat the other half of his creation. On earth and in heaven. Wow I bet these guys are real treats in bed for the women eh?
Strictly speaking no one goes to the biblical "heaven". The Jews go to the giant gaudy bejeweled golden cube called New Jerusalem. Gentiles can't get in because there's no gate in the wall to allow them to pass through. Muslims go to paradise. And the guys only get two virgins. Their other 70 women are refugees from hell. Nordics go to Valhalla. Mormon guys become gods and each has his own world with a harem to populate it with. Other people will get reincarnated. American Indians go to the happy hunting grounds. Christians can't go to heaven because the Bible says that place ceases to exist.
