Aren't you afraid to die?

Bright pink, because the cloaking skin/fur is shredded/gone.

Rats - there goes another theory, I was hoping they would be orange, it would have been far more interesting.

Do you know how lonely it would be to not be alive or to not be feeling anything?

and how would you know anything without feeling anything ?


(this guy is either stupid to an amazing magnitude, a troll, or on a mission to caricature the stupidest of the stupidest fundamentalists ... but he's definitely overdoing it ! )

Well, it is tricky trying to imagine what it feels like to not exist. Remember how it felt before you were conceived? Simply awful. I'm still trying to forget.

Oh, look. The big, fat lying liar is back. What has been keeping you? Were you at a convention to improve your skills on how to lie for Jesus?

This may come across as a bit of a weird statement, but it just occured to me that 1inC seems to me to be failing the Turing test! His responses are almost all parrot-like, but the real giveaway was when zaayrdragon mentioned the "troll under the bridge" 1inC responds by saying, "Would you people STOP calling me a troll. I'm getting sick of it."

Now if that isn't an automated response to a keyword then I'm a small furry animal from Alpha Centauri!!

I'm still trying to wrap my mind around--

Aren't you scared to die if you believe there is nothing afterwards? Do you know how lonely it would be to not be alive or to not be feeling anything?

If I'm not alive, then I'm not feeling anything, loneliness or otherwise.

Troll feeding time again...


NoneinChrist is on record, right here in this very forum, as saying that the way to achieve salvation is merely to repent before God, NOT to accept Jesus as one's savior.

When questioned on this point, and confronted with the exact words from John 3:16, he again rejected Christ, and disagreed with the literal words of the Bible...he was quite clear that he did not believe that Christ was the Savior, and instead started spouting nonsense about Jesus and God being the same person.

Then he ran away from another thread when it was clear that he didn't even know the story of the Garden...he insisted that Adam Eve came before anyone else...including Lilith...


All of a sudden, here he is again, pointing fingers at others, and accusing them of rejecting Christ, even though he has done the same.

Does anyone here really need anymore evidence that this is a poorly done imitation of a fundy Xtian, and therefor a troll not worth the time it takes to argue with as though he were serious?

If so, knock yoursleves out, you will be feeding the troll knowingly.

If anyone should be terrified of death, it should be the likes of 1inChrist.

They believe in all the hellfire malarky, and also in a vengeful God. If they put one foot wrong, it's straight off to the flaming brimstone.

I'd be scared witless.

Luckily, I don't believe in any of it, so all I have to be concerned about is the mode of my dying. After that, it's nothing to worry about.

Yeah, I know. Do Not Feed The Troll. But gee, 1inC's threads end up being so much fun.

 

[Ipecac]

Not scared in the least that I will end up in hell. The place doesn't exist.

I am not particularly happy about my pending non-existence. Something in my brain makes it a little hard for me to conceive of no longer existing. (Whenever I think of it, I always imagine suffocating.) However, I know that's what's going to happen and it happens to everyone, so I can deal with it.

Better to deal with reality than to make crap up just to feel better.

 

[The GM]

1inC,
As a non Christian troll, aren't you afraid of judgement? After all, you've single handedly mauled the Christian faith, you offer false hope to a man with a tumor and another with cancer, you knowingly portray an entire culture in a false light for your own devious aims.

You should be ashamed.

I will offer this to the Christians who frequent this forum, it doesn't seem that anyone is buying this guy's act anymore. I don't honestly think that anyone here sees ya'll in the light that this no talent ass clown is trying to portray.

Grow up, 1inC. You're acting more retarded than a bronze medal winner at the Special Olympics.

 

[Oleron]

1inC cracks me up - we should collect his posts into a book and make a fortune! (the bible?)

He has maintained his persona of wild-eyed, fundy hick for a good while now. Surely the mask will slip soon.

My guess is that he's really a 16 year old shop assistant, with a Buffy fixation.

Mind you if he's the real thing, I'd love to go to his church on Sundays! Although they can't all be like him, can they?

It might actually be worthwhile to engage a real believer in a discussion over the difference between the Christian concept of an afterlife, and the atheist concept of the Big Sleep.

But NoneinChrist is playing the knee jerk game where he comes here and says 'Godooogabooogayaddahyaddah...'
And then he sits back and watches the wound up skeptics run through the predictable responses.
He is playing JREF like it was a video game.

I've run across Christian fundamentalists of every stripe in my life, and heard all of their rhetoric, and this guy is no Christian of any kind.

 

[The GM]

I grew up in the fundie church. None of them are like him. He's a characiture.

 

[TragicMonkey]

I feel the same way, but then I realize that death is the ultimate way to shaft Sallie Mae and the Visa Corporation. My epitaph shall be "Just try and get my money now, I dare ya! Mwah hah hah!"

There's always a bright side, if you owe enough money.

I did have this discussion recently. My grandmother died in August and I had a nice talk with my mom's former minister. She came to do the service, even though she's retired now. The problem was, eventually I come up against the brick wall called "faith". She has faith in an afterlife, even without any evidence one exists. And that's fine.

I think there is a possibilty 1inC really is a fundamentalist Christian. But up against the rationalitity of this board, he is getting wilder and wilder with his claims. He's essentially throwing a religious temper tantrum.

 

[richardm]

What lies? There are no lies. God does not lie.

Hohoho! Where have you been?

e.g.
2 Thessalonians, Chapter 2, verses 11-12

And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:

That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

There's a fair few others. But since you said "God does not lie", one will suffice.

 

[Skeptical Greg]

So saaaaaaaaaaaaad...

We have nothing worthwhile to discuss...

Sorry, I can't think of anything either.. Times have been slow before.. It will pass...


P.S.

1inC, why don't you go dip your line at RR ?

Well, sure I'm scared to die. So are christians. Draw a gun on an atheist or a christian, and you will find them equally standing in a puddle of their own urine.

It does not necessarily follow that I should believe some fairy-story that tells I will not die. But if you must follow your delusions, then I refer you to Ecclesiastes 9:5:

For the living know that they shall die: but the dead know not any thing, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten.

As for being lonely after death, I think you need to work on a better understanding the idea of personal non-existence, even if you do not accept its reality. I don't expect to be lonely, anesthetic, or any other sensation. I expect not to be anything at all.

Some atheists know the Lake of Fire exists but knowingly reject His Sacrifice to the eternal Flame.

This is one of my favourites, out of all the Xtian 'facts' that I hear.

Apparently, I KNOW that there's a lake of fire, and I KNOW that there is this almighty creator being who could squish me like a bug (or smite me, as this seems to be the preferred method), yet, knowing this, I CHOOSE to say, "eff you!"

Clearly, one of the marks of an atheist is having no survival instinct whatsoever.
