Just wondering if any of you Atheists or Agnostics believe in some sort of existence as some sort of being, spirit, or energy after death?

Now, I'm not talking about continuing on as the bugs that eat you or the matter from your body getting changed into something else.

Essentially I'm asking if any of you believe that there is some sort of spiritual energy that is part of everyone and whether that spirit or energy continues on after death. Additionally I'm curious as to what you think that existence would be like.

Please explain your answers as I like to know why people believe what they do.

In the book "People who don't know they're dead" by Gary Hill, it sugests that a lot of mental disorders are actually people obssesed with spirits that never made it to the other side. Meds make you tired, you stop acting up, but without them, you are weird. What do you think of that posibility? Could that be the reason why people can not get cured many times for mental disorders, but just be "under control"? Anxiety, depression,acting different when under influance... Not possesed by demons, just "hitch-hiking spirits who are not in the right place".

The Old Testament god kills people left and right. He even tells the Hebrews to slaughter entire cities for not believing in him.

Judges 1:4 And Judah went up; and the LORD delivered the Canaanites and the Perizzites into their hand: and they slew of them in Bezek ten thousand men.

So how exactly does the OT god suddenly become a nice, kind and cuddly god in the NT? Why is Jesus really the only one who says that god is a nice guy? Isn't he a little biased?

Why Jesus was taken out of the cross when well documented Crucifixion by Romans states clearly that the whole idea of it it to show to others.
Ppl still lives on the cross up to 7 days.
Ppl that were crucified were the lowest class of that time (regardless who jesus was)
The whole punishment idea is that others will observe for several days.
Guards had to protect those who were crucified and no1 could get close to them.

Can we consider that is a miracle in Jesus case? And i think it has to be a miracle and its way bigger than turning water in wine. It’s even bigger than Coca-Kola turn tab water into the spring water.

I don't ever remember asking you to do that. You guys need to chill out a bit.

I see that sometimes you use that bible thing to justify it sometimes. Some of you seem to think that it was me who wrote this book or inspired it.I mean come on, I can't even use spellcheck.

I finally got around to reading the bible and woah ! i mean I appreciate the bigraphy but are you guys way of the mark or what.

I didn't smite anyone and what's this about a flood and plagues of locusts ? Ugh I hate insects. I didn't realise that they would evolve.

As for a flood and an ark, I get sea sick watching speed 2 so forget that.

And NO, I have nothing against gay people. Sheesh !

If you must make up stories fine, but please don't use these stories in order justify to hating and killing each other.

Look after each other............... that's all I ever wanted.

Have you ever eaten jesus? He said you had to to. In John 6: Jesus said that people must eat his flesh and drink his blood. He was not speaking in metaphors because to metaphorically eat and drink someone in aramaic means to persecute someone (he who persecutes me will live?) In John 6: 60 people cannot deal with it so much that they leave him. If JESUS didn't actually mean "EAT ME" WOuld he have let them leave? And then even given his apostles the chance to leave?

I HAVE EATEN JESUS BODY BLOOD SOUL AND DIVINITY AND IT IS AWESOME!

I know women want to help with hot flashes and whatever their female problems are but I have a friend that went out of state and came back with foals that were from horses used for the making of the hormones women take.She said they have these horses bred and then they stand in a stall for months with a bag attached to them to collect their urine to make the drug. When the foals are born they are slaughtered or people adopt them so that the mares can be rebred to keep producing urine for this hormome replacement therapy women take. What do you feel is cruelty, A few years of discomfort or the torture of these horses.My friend said it was not a pretty site to see.I had heard this was what the hormones are made from but I never knew it to be so sickening !

Receiving answers to a previous question, I was both told they don't apply by some, yet they do apply by others. If they do apply, explain why you pick and choose which ones you do use and why you purposely break others.
If you feel they don't apply, do you reference them to prove a point in debates and discusions? Why?

I know that Muslims, Christians, and Jews all revere Abraham as a prophet/spiritual leader. I was just curious about what some of those similarities and differences are.

This was posted recently on yahoo answers as an answer to another question. Curious what teaching this is??

"Jesus was NOT crucified. He was raised to the sky before being that, and the one who was crucified was NOT Jesus, but a similar to him."

Condemning Islamic terrorism is all over the place, but who really are the real terrorists? Muslims practice reactive, individual, scattered attacks every now and then and you know some bad apples, but what about this long term, organized, systemic, state terrorism practiced by America in Iraq, and Afghanistan, and Israel in Palestine, and Lebanon? History is recording, Muslims will not forget, and God will no forgive.
