"Death is the door through which we must walk to the next phase of our existence."
Is that made up rhetoric or is there any data to substantiate there is a plausible existence for a mind after it has decayed away ?
The concept of heaven hell is a crude human invention to manipulate humans with the add on side effect that it often leads to psychological distress confusion ambivalence and imbalances |

People like to think they matter, and if heaven (or a heavenlike concept) is something that enables them to face death more easily then I have no problem with it.
The problem I DO have is when people in power use those concepts to keep others in line. |

It seems to have become trendy to knock people for their religious beliefs.
I don't agree with having religion rammed down your throats but I also don't think atheism should be rammed down throats either and a bit of respect would be nice too. |

Ok ?
So two concepts
One , I may be judged and suffer
Two ,I no longer experience any pain
Which is rationally the most comforting

Non believers are often more evangelical than believers.
My parents are practicing Christians. Its not for me, I have no time for it but I defend their right to live and believe what they want to as long as it harms nobody. |

Yep, I was brought up as a Catholic and my mum is heavily involved in the church. I don't think there's a single time I've seen her that she doesn't talk about religion  |

This is belief, not rhetoric. You have to admit that there are many things in life that lie beyond the ability of modern science to explain or the human mind to comprehend. Why not in death also? You say there is no proof of it's existence, i would like to point out that, equally, there is no proof that it does not.
I agree that the Christian invention of a heaven/hell afterlife is used to subjugate and manipulate it's followers but i see that only as man's corruption of a belief system, not proof that it is fake. |

Here is a religious belief
A woman should be forced to have a child after being r ped
Here is another
Gay men should be executed ,see Leviticus
All beliefs that advocate inhuman behaviour should indeed be challenged be them Nazi philosophy or religious doctrine
I will respect or not a person based upon their specific beliefs
I feel it is sad for humanity that non substantiated belief systems are propagated as rational and reasonable coping strategies when far more effective non belief based philosophies can equip a human mind exceptionally well for all of the world's challenges
Even the most devout will experience the confusing emotion of ambivalence when a
Personal natural tragedy occurs
When a really bad thing happens at least as an atheist I don't have to deal with the why question x |

I don't think there is a huge difference between thinking 'god happens' and 'shit happens'. The problems occur when people are forced to feel guilty for it.
Anyway, its long been a belief of mine (there's that pesky word again) that CoE followers are less into guilt and indulgences and more into hymns and fund raisers. |

Are you reading a different thread to me
It was suggested above that c of e is more tolerant and that Catholics have stolen the monopoly upon making its followers feel guilty ?

Which of course both the other sects and Islam both have based there bronze age morality on ? |

I had a very religious upbringing, I could quote you bible inside out & backwards.
Do I believe in God? Yes.
Not the man on the fluffy clouds, but I do believe there's a force, at work, and an equally opposite power working against it.
Am I going to heaven?
I don't think they'd have me |

"Are you going to be going on after death and going to heaven? Would you make a good born again Christian or other religious practitioner?"
I think death is the end, there is nothing else.... I would make a terrible member of any organised religion 
I do like the Discworld idea of Death though...
I respect other people's beliefs and know that believing you will go to a better place after death, is a great comfort to many.
However, I have problems with any who try to impose their views/beliefs on others and religions that use fear tactics.

I don't believe in a force at work or a equal and opposite force
I know they both exist
One is gravity and it's opposite number dark energy
I make no claim to know how they work but I see zero evidence that either has what humans would define as sentience ?
God usually boils down to only one universally agreeable term and attribute most others are disputed and dismissed by other believers
The single definable term would be sentient creator ie what we experience was designed
Beyond that I as an atheist know there are forces that move matter thus the simple existence of mysterious forces a creator do not make xxx |

Simply because Judaism was founded in the Bronze Age and at the time was the only religion that adhered to the concept of heaven which is what this thread is about. What on earth were you referring to? |

If they just think it in their heads I don't care, no.
The second they go further than thinking - imposing their beliefs on other people or hurting them- then it's an issue. |

Truth is often subjective
Some humans now understand more than they ever have , and part of that understanding is the understanding of how much more there may be to understand

Ok so head thinking is ok 
How about word talking ? So they themselves may not enact such vile concepts but how about their rhetoric influencing the development of children leading then to whole groups of humans thinking and acting upon the meme that some colours of skin are less human than others |

I was expecting a little light hearted nonsense for the weekend.
I'm not a believer of any faith, though I don't see the concept of either heaven or hell from the bible, perceiving it as particularly instilled by organized religions. I don't think it exists in the old testament as written nor taught by the Jesus of the new testament of the Christian religions. It seems more of perhaps some pagan belief system that got incorporated for the gains of more modern Christian systems. Perhaps it was about giving people a simple choice of follow and adhere to our way or get the terrible option for infinity (by the way, keep paying your dues).

If my point was not clear I apologise however I was sure it would be infered and understood to mean
I think Catholics and the C of E are both capable of instilling guilt and lifestyle rules we may consider unreasonable or causes of division
I also think both are able to sing and raise funds and promote peace
Why Jews were mentioned I have zero idea , but as they were my opinion is the same they as a group are capable of love and hate

Putting technonology aside i think it's safe to say as a race we have lost more knowledge than we have now
Ok I'll illustrate why I said your assertion of "it is safe to say" was speculation and NOT safe
, it is unknowable to know what has been lost as it's very state of lost means we cannot account (count) or quantify it
This by default means any attempt to quantify is speculation
However I suggest wild which indeed is speculation from my part and my basis for that is
Whatever parameters you may set for the definition of knowledge that which could be quantified as such now would be subject to evolutionary concept thus within a humanity it's knowledge would increase exponentially where as it's loss of data would fall liner that can be evidenced by regarding how much knowledge humanity has gained and lost within the last 500 years
In case you doubt I agree data has been lost , just not as much a you speculate x

Firstly, my post regarding Catholics and the CofE was intended as a joke.
Secondly, my wish to know to whom you were referring was posted because you mentioned the Bronze Age and this is when Judaism was founded. If i made an incorrect assumption i apologise, yet the question remains unanswered.
Thirdly, whilst i agree that there is a certain amount of speculation in my post vis-a-vis how much knowledge we have now compared to how much we have lost i think you are failing to take into account the amount of natural, spiritual and cosmic knowledge that has been swept aside since the onset of the Abrahamist religions. The quantity is of course unknowable yet compare the possibility to the spiritual desert we are faced with now.
I am not trolling, this is merely a debate. I fail to understand why you have such a problem with it. I simply ask that people keep an open mind. |
