Meanwhile, Jesus is staring up at dad like he's a maniac.





    *cough*Scientology*cough*

    lmao, that is the only "religion" that I will ever laugh at.

    Exactly. It is scary... I mean, who's to say that there isn't something past heaven? I really hope so. Life has to have a greater purpose than to live for 80 years or so and just end.

    Just my opinion, and it's too late to get past this for me lol


    Yeah, life would be pathetically futile if you ceased to exist after a few decades.

    Why would anyone bother being good? If a murderer is going to end up in the same place as some good person.

    It's incredibly scary, but I realized a while back that we're here to reproduce, and set it all up for the next generation, and then we die. At least that's how I think it works Again I could be wrong, actually, I HOPE I'm wrong
  4. Also, the other problem with God not existing (and only the physical world around us existing).

    Is determinism, which basically means that no one has any control over their actions, and it is all predetermined.

    Because, let's face it, there really isn't a good or evil. It's all a matter of perspective, again, it's depressing to think about, but that really is just how it goes

    Exactly. There is a similar religion (if it still exists) where there is no Hell. Just a Heaven. I can't remember it, I think it might be named after a person though. My goodness I'm tired

    But I think you do have control. You have control over your life but once your dead, that's that

  8. Oh, Scientology is fucking insane, but what I'm saying is, they all are that crazy, we're just so used to them that we don't really notice it anymore

    I know... little green men coming in a spaceship is SciFi sh*t, not religion

  10. Xenu put us all here and had a giant circle of volcanoes and exploded us all out of them with H-Bombs


  11. Actually no, because if there is no 'soul', your consciousness (which determines what you think and do) is determined by all the electrical signals going around your brain.

    And in turn these electrical signals are determined by the interactions of the billions of atoms and molecules that make up your brain.

    Now we know from science that all these particles follow a set of rules, so that if you knew the initial state of the system, you could calculate what would happen anytime in the future.

    And so it would turn out that all your thoughts (and actions) were all predetermined before you were born, when your brain was developing.

    Scientology is insane, I mean the guy who founded it was a sci fi author and he even admitted that all the books he wrote (which they use as bibles) were fictitious.
