Atheists Think They Know Things, But They Know Nothing (must Read). by Sennard(m): 1:35am On Jan 23, 2015
An atheist was seated next to a little girl on an airplane and he turned
to her and said, "Do you want to talk? Flights go quicker if you strike
up a conversation with your fellow passenger."
The little girl, who had just started to read her book, replied to the total
stranger, "What would you want to talk about?"
"Oh, I don't know," said the atheist. "How about why there is no God,
or no Heaven or Hell, or no life after death?" as he smiled smugly.
"Okay," she said. "Those could be interesting topics but let me ask
you a question first. A horse, a cow, and a deer all eat the same
stuff - grass. Yet a deer excretes little pellets, while a cow turns
out a flat patty, but a horse produces clumps. Why do you suppose that is?"
The atheist, visibly surprised by the little girl's intelligence,
thinks about it and says, "Hmmm, I have no idea." To which
the little girl replies, "Do you really feel qualified to discuss
God, Heaven and Hell, or life after death, when you don't know shit?"
And then she went back to reading her book

Ummmm.. I'm not quite sure how this is directed to atheists alone...

Same can be applied to everyone, the religious and the non religious.

Frankly, no one is qualified to discuss the concept of God and consequently, no one has sole right on accuracy. Lets just enjoy what we see here on earth and treat ourselves better.

The god humans worship is a case of democracy (by the people of the people and for the people). Man made god into what he would like and it's as simple as that.

Well as long as we all agree that a comprehensive knowledge of bullshyt is required to discuss God and the afterlife

U claim people dnt knw anything about God.No, i big NO. I want to tell it to you clearLY dat we knw the God we serve.though u wouldn't believe because u always demand explanations that u cannot understand nd u wouldn't probably understand till divine intervention in ur lives.so it's as simple as until u humbly submit nd willingly listen without sentiment. Without these i'm afraid atheists can never get it...............

A theist was seated next to an atheist girl on an airplane and he
turned
to her and said, "Do you want to talk? Flights go quicker if you strike
up a conversation with your fellow passenger."
The little atheist girl, who had just started to read her book(The God delusion), replied to the
total
stranger, "What would you want to talk about?"
"Oh, I don't know," said the theist. "How about why there is God,Heaven and Hell, or life after death?" as he smiled smugly.
"Okay," she said. "Those could be interesting topics but let me ask
you a question first. The sun,you and a car,all use energy to maintain their respective internal processes but each give off different things...the sun gives off UV radiation,you give off CO2+water and heat and cars give off CO,why is that?
The theist, visibly surprised by the little atheist girl's intelligence,
thinks about it and says, "Hmmm, I have no idea." To which
the little atheist girl replies, "Do you really feel knowledgeable to discuss
"God, Heaven and Hell, or life after death", when you don't know how physics or reality works?"
And then she went back to reading her book... smiley

We might never know. Not in our lifetime anyway. The Plague razed Europe long enough before there were improvements in medicine.

The trick is to enjoy life. Shun hypocrisy and do to others exactly the same way you want to be treated.

Live a good life. If there are Gods and they are just, then they will not care how devout you have been, but will welcome you based on the virtues you have lived by. If there are Gods, but unjust, then you should not want to worship them. If there are no Gods, then you will be gone, but will have lived a noble life that will live on in the memories of your loved ones.

Your beliefs does not make you a good person, your behavior does.
