I realize my body will become compost but is it possible the energy within me moves on.

Whether or not it has a consciousness is to far down the road to even consider as of yet. But just the transference of energy would cause some interesting reactions in society.

yet some people say "well, we don't know what god meant by "a day"? Why would he say "6 days" if he meant 20,000 years? Why not just say 20,000 years or "a really, really, really, long time"?
It doesn't make sense.

They all seem to act the same like making fun of religion. You don't know which Atheist is which, you guys have the same personality.

Are you people on a drug that makes you all act the same?
What about the drug that makes you attack or make fun of people? what's it called?

Seriously, just stop making fun of religion and quit using drugs.

The bible says the Earth was created in 7 days. How did the writers know this if no humans existed then? It says Adam and Eve were the first people. How did they know this? People are going to say it was god. How do you know that god exists? Where is there any proof at all for his exsistence.

Jesus promised the thief today, I promise you will be with me in paradise. The comma is in the wrong place in the bible. Punctuation is not inspired.
Jesus, did not go to Heaven on that day because Jesus told Mary on the morning of the 1st day (Sun-day) not to touch Him because Jesus had not assended to His Father yet.
Either the thief is awaiting the resurrrection at the second coming or Jesus was lying. And God cant lie.
So the theif could not be with Jesus in paradise on the day they were crucified. (Friday)

As reported earlier today, excavations at closed pasta manufacturing plants and landfills have yielded new evidence showing that the FSM is not, infact, angel hair pasta as claimed, but actually an inexpensive form of elbow macaroni.
Radio Carbon testing has also shown that instead of 8 billion years old, the FSM can be no more than 100 years old. Elbow macaroni is known to have appeared suddenly in the pasta record. Although bow-tie pasta was once considered a transitional form between the ancient linguine pasta and elbow, it's been shown to be of a different family entirely. Radical pastafarian cleric Chef Boyardee claims this will have a huge impact on the continued serving of pasta in the public schools. According to Boyardee " Pastafarians world-wide should keep an open mind" concerning these troubling revelations . The Flying Spaghetti Monster, or FSM, has also come under fire recently with accusations being made of his actually being made of "No Yolks" instead of vermicelli.

The human X and Y chromosomes (the two “sex” chromosomes) have been completely sequenced. Thanks to work carried out by labs all across the globe, we know that the X chromosome contains 153 million base pairs, and harbors a total of 1168 genes (see NCBI, 2004). The National Center for Biotechnology Information reports that the Y chromosome—which is much smaller—contains “only” 50 million base pairs, and is estimated to contain a mere 251 genes. Educational institutions such as Baylor University, the Max Planck Institute, the Sanger Institute, Washington University in St. Louis, and others have spent countless hours and millions of research dollars analyzing these unique chromosomes. As the data began to pour in, they allowed scientists to construct gene maps—using actual sequences from the Human Genome Project. And yet, neither the map for the X nor the Y chromosome contains any “gay gene.”

It's sad to me that while looking through people's questions and every time they mention God they are attacked because of their religious views. At the same time when someone makes an atheist comment they are immediately attacked by "Christians" who tell them they are going to hell.
I find it sad that I can't voice my religious views without being verbally abused. I have even been told to "go choke on a Bible" because I asked a question of evangelism. I was in tears because I felt like a bad person for being who I am.
Also I'm embarrassed to see the hateful word's tossed around by people who claim to be Christ followers. I believe that my religion is built on love. I believe that God exists and only he can judge people.
So why is it so hard to respect people who believe things you don't or don't believe things you do?

Since in the bible it says that sex before marriage is wrong...then why do you do it...I mean we all make mistakes but if you do it don't say its right....SO my question is why do you practice it? and why do you say its right, when its not?...because God says its not.

Is it because of the fear of being alone in your thoughts and the ridicule that comes from it?

Is it because humans are just now evolving to the same level as ants and bees in your social structure? In other words you can't help it.

I like open minded people and their ideas, I just wish there were more of you.

One thing we all do as an individual is die, don't wait til then.

The proof is in science itself. The axiom which we apply in all our scientific researches, "there is no effect without a
cause", therefore, to assure ourselves of the existence of God, we have only to look abroad on the works of creation. The universe exists, therefore It has a cause. To doubt the existence of God is to doubt that every effect has a
cause, and to assume that something can have been made by nothing."

Spirits Book, author Allan Kardec.

What do you say about that?
