--- Quote from: Inv3rted on November 15, 2009, 12:00:59 AM ---Making the assumption that there is an afterlife devalues the real life. --- End quote --- it forces people to slave themselves to one particular set of beliefs and leads to close-mindedness. It is best if you just are polite and nice and whatnot just for the hell of it. |

Meaning of life: love everything. |

There is also the moral question about whether or not being good for a reward is actually being good. |

--- Quote from: Inv3rted on November 15, 2009, 12:05:12 AM ---Life matters a lot less because you know you just need to do a few things to please God and you'll live forever in a paradise. If good people go to heaven after they die, why does it matter if they die? It's a part of God's plan, isn't it? --- End quote --- Well, it is a good point, but who said that every person who believes in afterlife gives up because of what you said? I believe in God/heaven, and I don't believe that I can just give up after doing a few things well. Hey, why not bring proof? A testimonial will do, find me a few people who do what you say. |
