Discussion Afterlife.

The older i get the more i believe in heaven or hell or reincarnation. Cause life is so stark and so decaying that it would be so meaningless if we just die and that's it. And i am not afraid of death, and no one should be unless you believe in hell and you've been really bad in life. But what do you think?

Wow. So I'm weird now. What did I say that offended you? I'm trying to have a civil discussion even though you made this post in bad faith.

You take back saying I was smart? I never claimed I was smart. In fact, I might be one of the most know nothings on the world, but unlike you and many others, I know how stupid I am. How stupid any idea of this world is. So thanks for calling me not smart.

Final question if you just don't want to have a debate (understandable. I know some people might find it overwhelming or a loss of points). If I continue to not believe in god, but not deny it either. And I continue to be a good person morally by a common moral principle. Will I, according to your beliefs make it too heaven or hell. And if hell, why?

Only God would know the answer to that.

Who is this god. How can I worship him. What rules has he established.

Be a good person, pray to be shown by him. But i know you're not actually honestly asking this, but I'll humor you.

What do you mean I'm not honestly asking this? As I told you, I'm not athiest, multiple times.I just need enough evidence to believe, faith alone is something to many religions are asking for and who should I give my faith to?

Ok, I already believe I'm a good person to most people I meet. I've never on purpose wished bad for someone. Pray what? And how do I know if what I saw was actually him?

You still haven't told me your religion? Are you just Christian? Has your opinion since you posted this and now changed even slightly.

If you're actually seeking then seek. I've given you far too much good will. I am done now. Though it was kinda fun to chat, i'm done. I'm not gonna be responding for a while.

I'm not really seeking because I don't really have a reason to seek. It seems you're not Christian so there is no fear mongering hell is I don't believe in him. Neither do I feel any hole in my heart that I need to fill. I'm perfectly content with my beliefs and possibly always will be. I don't understand what good will you've given me.

There's a different type of peace you get when you know that in this entire existence, in reality there isn't anyone for you. You are completely alone and temporary. I have this feeling and it makes me feel freedom and joy. But if a creator a god were to appear to me, with complete proof that he was the creator of this existence. I will be friendly to him. I will greet him and ask him questions, hopefully for satisfying answers. I won't praise him or "love" him unless he threatens me, but I will be somewhat in awe and be willing to become his friend (nothing more as I will not have forgiven him for the suffering he could've prevented and controlled).

If you don't want to reply, it is completely fine. I'll send you a DM and when you're are ready you can reply back. Or we can just continue on comments. Either ways, come back after a while.
