Summary of the write up.

The guy became scared of the dark and death.

So he crawled back to believing. Believing because he just can't accept that everything would end in death... "there has to be another place where we'll continue to live".

Well, I can't blame anyone for believing in anything that promises something more than life. The sadness or emptiness is simply fear. If all we have to do is believe to feel better, why not?

When it is all said and done, there is still no knowledge of life afterwards. It remains this way, even in our believing. Yes, we have seen other organisms on the planet perish without any indications of transporting to a different realm. But somehow, we (thinking, self-conscious beings) don't want to accept this oblivion staring coldly in our faces. Homosapiens just has to be specially predestined amongst all animals?

No one knows.

Some just believe. Some choose to believe...

I say, we still don't know!

No matter how badly we want it, everything dies. This is how far it goes for now.

They have seen the Light!
Isnt all your posts not enough light?
See John 1:5 says 'the light shineth in darkness and darkness comprehendeth it not'...Men have rejected the True Light for they loved darkness rather than light for their deeds are evil: Why reject the light if you dont know it? They know the light but have rejected by choice due to lack of spiritual understanding, comprehension, insight and strength.
The light is shining gloriously more and more but darkness just wouldnt comprehend it!
We pray that God would open their understanding. Amen!

It's just incorrect. And those listing up on Nairaland are ignorant nuisances. They don't even understand "A WORD OR THE WORD IN HOLY BOOKS".

Continuation of our present world in the afterlife where there will be both good and evil and the presence of religion telling us of an after-afterlife.

Perhaps, scientists will find a solution to that in the future.

Are you part of those organisms for you to know whether they transported to a different realm or not?

Even the human class you belong to, you can't boldly say with 100% assurance that nothing happens after death talk less of dragging other organisms which you're not part of into it.

All these Mr. Common sense can't stop to amaze people sha

when will these Christians see the light

When will you and your Muslim brothers see the light of the glorious Gospel of Christ when even Islamic scholars converted to Christianity?

I'm sorry you're pained.

You've only reiterated my point. The difference is that I sense frustration in your test. I've made my peace with that.

You don't know, I don't know, we don't know...

So, tell me what you've refuted.

Mr. Uncommon Sense.

You are right. The scripture also says in Romans 1:18 that they are suppressing the truth. undecided

I don't really expect you to answer my questions because I know its all about maintaining your sinful lifestyle.

Go back to your thread and see how you were the active dodger to all my posts. https://www.nairaland.com/3674204/shameful-display-hypocrisy-nl-theists/5#54586634
