i struggle also, its like i no there isnt a life after death but at the same time i want there to be one -everything that releigon teaches i want to be true, but i know that it isn't its all bullshit whin you die your dead and the only way to prove other is to die and im in no rush- to much fuck up shit is and has happened in this world for there to be a god -this i know but at the same time i want there to be one- does a person has a soul if so when i die am i to look how i looked when i was alive - if i was born with no arms and everyone knew me as the guy with no arms whin i die do i have to still have no ams -what about a kid that dies is he still a kid 30 years later when his friend and family dies - what if i dont even beleave in hell do ihave to be forced in to a place that i dont even belive in- whin i dei i dont want to loose all my memorys and thoughts thats i have gained over the years- sometime ,well realy every night i think about death and whats after if anything at all, theres so many ways to catch it not even counting your body shutting down for no reason- life is really odd in that way you live to die-this fact alone makes me kind of beleave in reincarnation - but i dont think i comeing back as a fly- i think we come back as humans, and flys come back a flys- and cows come back to be hamberger all over again
i dont beleave in religion, but my wife do, and we have 3 kids- so i guess i may be the best to answer this question - like that other guy said , to push my vews onto the kids would be the same thing, so what i do is allow my wife to bring the kids up in a religous house hold ( the same as her and i had ) and let the kid find the light that shines on the truth for them my sister beleave in god and religion and every thing i just saw way to many flaws in it for me to buy it
if you pose a question that cant be answered religious people say you have to have blind faith, for me this does not work - i sometimes regret haveing seen the light, some nights i wish i could have taken the other pill and stayed in the matrix of lies feed to me as a child - so i sometimes sit and look at my kids playing and think should i teach them the truth and have them missing sleep as i do or should i leave them in la la land and maybe one day they will loose sleep over some truths they uncover on they're own as i did this way really giving them a choice- you and i found the truth because we wanted to know it, to me the ones who dont want to see the truth, sees it and chooses to look away, they lie to themselfes because it helps keep them grounded.
noone has ever came back from death so where does this godthing come from?
keep in mind that god was created to keep those controlled that could not be controled - before today tehcno. there was know way in keepin the masses controlled. you could commet crimes without any fear of not getting away with it, they only caught those who were caught red handed or was guilted into turning themself in, thew religion, the fear of what you were conditioned into beleaving in kept people inline (this did not and doesnot work 100%) but it worke- the fear of hell-
i myself ask super religious people all the time if i dont beleave but live my life as a good person would i still go to heaven......... no is alway the answer- you could follow all the rules of the bible (without beleaving in it ) way better then they do, and be a positive person, you can be an outstanding human being, pay taxes, give money to the needy, never cheat on the wife, farther of the year...,,,blah, blah,blah and so on it doesn't matter to them, your going to hell if you dont beleave in god and have a religion............. its the rule
