When you consider all the sperm and all the eggs that never formed you but could have done and all the sperm and egg cells that could have formed your ancestors all the way back to the beginning of life you are grotesquely lucky to be alive and not an entirely different person. You have on average 75 years in this universe what are you going to do with it? Are you going to use it wisely and try and learn more about the universe you live in, in order to try and make it better for people in the future, or are you going to waste it sitting in a corner talking to your self in the hope of something better after those 75 years are up which probably isn't real anyway? The choice is up to you, which will it be?

I know that there's no such thing as Hell or the boogie man but I just want to know what a religious person would say.

I was raised accepting that God existed and was good and whatnot, but even then I never bought into creationism or anything crazy like that. So around age 15 I realized that while I prayed every once in awhile and wanted to see loved ones again, it all just felt like empty gestures that would have been just as useful directed towards Merlin. So I decided that I'd be honest with myself and stop pretending to believe for heaven. So I was atheist for awhile but then learned about Siddhartha Gautama the Buddha in a history class and it was love at first sight. So now I'm an atheist/buddhist and act on what the Buddha said about never following anything you haven't seen evidence for yourself, and I've never seen anything worthwhile in God's favor, and also hold the buddhist belief that all gods and religion are wishful thinking and delusion.

Continued in details.

but now im thinking. maybe its better that i dont. but is it possible to get an operation that pushes my balls UP and tucks them into my body somehow. i know they hang for a reason (the heat). and the heat will be bad for the semen. but I DONT WANT TO EVER HAVE KIDS ANYWAY !!!!

i just dont ever wanna get kicked there. if i can get them tucked up INSIDE me, where they're SAFE, i could keep my balls, but not have to ever worry about getting kicked there.

2000 years ago pigs were probably very unsafe to eat. But today? Why are there still religous restrictions on eating pork?

Ok, I am interested once in a while of becoming President. I was wondering if people would elect me. In Iraq, I would withdraw 75% of troops in one year and the next year, Iraqi security forces would be able to take over completely if Civil War does not occur. Our troops would remain in Afghanistan, even though I don't like war. I would support a Muslim state similar to the state of Israel, one of the few ways to bring peace. I would put billions of dollars into supporting a national healthcare plan, instead of in the military or police system. I would support stem cell research, which can save millions of people's lives. I would cut whatever taxes possible. With approval of the Congress I would make treaties with nations such as Russia, which would be hard, but it could be done with some work. Also, instead of persecuting drug users, I would pour money into creating more treatment programs for them. I would punish those who knowingly employ illegal immigrants.
