    The reason all atheists are losers is their non belief. They believe in nothing- therefore they will get nothing ! I believe and am looking forward to a great party in the afterlife. The Atheist Losers can scratch the arse of their Dawkin dork Leader! :P

    The reason all theists are losers is their belief. They believe in fairytales- therefore they will get fairytales ! I don't believe and am looking forward to no afterlife. The Theist Losers can scratch the arse of their Jesus dork Leader! :p

    Doesn't follow (OP).

    If the atheists are wrong, and there is an afterlife, then they get a bonus*.

    If they're right, so what -- nobody loses and nobody (dead) cares.






    *Assuming the afterlife isn't a tedious re-run of this one, on an infinite loop.

    ! I believe and am looking forward to a great party in the afterlife.

    If you spend your mortal life going out of your way to ridicule and annoy others chances are you won't get invited to the party.

    Do you believe because it is true, or because of eternal life? If it is the latter doesn't that say something about the motivations behind your belief?

    Well argued. I guess I have been wrong all this time. I shall convert to Islam in the morning.

    Pity, we're having a great party in this one -- I hope that's not a sliver of jealousy I sense in there :p

    Still, troll or nay, it's never wrong to lend old Omar a few pixels:

    No - just recant on your deathbed.

    Music for your party!





    Anybody else have afterlife party music recommendations?

    Just correcting some very common misconceptions in your first post.
    • Atheists can actually believe in an afterlife.
    • Atheists can have a variety of different beliefs depending on the individual all that matters is that they don't believe in a deity.

    k thx bye.

    The only good thing to come out of christianity is simon and garfunkel. you can keep the rest of the garbage that book spews out.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,629 ✭✭✭raah!


    S and G-funk came out of Christianity? Affiliated certainly. I wonder what other explicitly christian music our atheist buddies like? Bob Dylan is beginning to believe what the scriptures tell if Workingman's Blues is anything to go by. I'm sure lots of people like bob dylan, he's come out of christianity! Spewed from the bible he was! Arcade fire... maybe.

    Are these one post wonders people spurred on by their anticipation the recently advertised apocalypse? Anyway, take it easy op.

    (Op should be treated with kids gloves.)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,090 ✭✭✭jill_valentine


    At least one of Arcade Fire is a gay atheist.

    Wow, thats a pretty sad first post. Something to think about before you start branding anyone a loser:

    You'll spend your life praying and following some dark age rulebook in the hope that some "party" is waiting for you when you die. Your whole life will simply be year after year of acting like a good sheep and avoiding any ideas or experiences which might be taboo or unacceptable to your beliefs. When you do stop breathing and expire, instead of hitting the jazziest nightclub in existance, you'll simply be lowered into a cold wooden box in the ground, left there to decay into nothingness. Doesn't sound like a party does it? Death is the end of the story.

    Serious?

    Serious?
    Atheism is disbelief in a deity. You could have an afterlife (or reincarnation) without a deity.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,030 ✭✭✭✭Chuck Stone


    So what is it called when you think it's all over when you're dead? (Like the parrot in Monty Python)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,371 ✭✭✭✭Zillah


    "Not believing in an after life".

    We don't need titles for everything. What's it called when a person doesn't think everything needs a title? I'm one of those.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,995 ✭✭✭✭blorg

    Materialism (the belief that there is only matter) rejects any supernatural spooky stuff.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,371 ✭✭✭✭Zillah


    Someone can believe in magic without believing in an after life. They're not materialists.

    My understanding of what being an atheist meant was wrong (I thought it meant rejection of an afterlife).

    Thanks for clearing that up.

    Very true; I think the point here is that atheism does not automatically rule out belief in something after death, although I suspect the vast majority of Western athiests don't believe in an afterlife.

    A materialist will not believe in an afterlife; this does not mean that all who disbelieve in am afterlife are materialists (although, again, I suspect most Western athiests are.)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 603 ✭✭✭Irish Fire


    Sad very very sad, are you trying to convert people or just criticize them? Your "lord" says "let him without sin cast the first stone"..... You have no idea what you are talking about but we forgive you so go back to your bible studies like a good little person and stop throwing stones.....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,096 ✭✭✭Liamario


    Why are religious people usually the worst people at following their own religious teachings.
    I'm fairly confident that most of the atheists here are better christians than the christians themselves!

    True very true, I believe that of you work hard provide for family raise your children in a good and honest way that that is what counts and not "bible bashing" your way through life trying to convert others. Look at how may wars were caused by the bible bashers of the world.........


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,164 ✭✭✭hobochris


    Just curious, why is it that comments like this are permitted here but, if you say something to the same effect on the Christian forum you get a slap on the wrist/ ban?

    That is exactly what God demands!!!!!! It doesn't matter whether you believe in interpretations of pual or not. That is exactly the message the of Jesus.......

    Why wait until you're dead to party Mistress 69 when there's a party right now, in my pants?

    You must believe in the pants before you can go to the party in them.
