Actually, adherents of supernatural belief systems like Christianity and Voodoo will not "absolutely know the truth" when they die. They will not know anything at all after life ceases. During their final moments they may be preparing to Cross Over River Jordan, but the next few seconds will turn them into a convenient place for flies to deposit eggs. Everything will instantly blip out into a flat line as Bob becomes a blob of meat.
Considering the role insects and bacteria play in keeping the planet from drowning in dead meat, this provision of a bug nursery may be the most constructive act ever performed by some individuals.


Stated with conviction! I like that.

Therefore it must be true.

In less than one hundred years everyone here will absolutely know the truth. Some far sooner than that. Some perhaps by the end of the day. Just be patient!

*shrug* When I go, I'm going to have a nice long sit-down conversation with God, Allah, The Great Spirit, Zeus, Thor, Gaia, Baal, Ra, Amateratsu, and a whole bunch of their friends. I'll get to hear about how cute the humans are when they make up these stories to explain answers to questions when they have no other clue, and what a trip it has been watching life evolve from the time they decided to spark the Big Bang.

I've always loved when religions tell me that they are correct to the exclusion of all other religions, science, observations, common sense, etc....

Science does the same thing regarding religion...

You got your religion in my science...

But you got your science in my religion!

Do they have to be separate?

Reread my post. One sect of one religion in particular excludes science and all other religions. The rest of the religions and science do not exclude eachother or that particular religion, except to the extent that that religion excludes itself.

In his defense, I don't think he's talking about the end of days. I believe he is referring to our own days of reckoning...

That said, I've already said my piece on this one... :D

Oh, in that case I have to go with Sam Clemens (Mark Twain): “Heaven for climate, hell for company.”

the guy said he'd be back in the lifetime of some of his followers ... that was 2,000 years ago, and we're still waiting


Matthew 16: 28: "...there be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they see the Son of Man coming in his kingdom."

well... they're long dead, and he's not back yet ...
