believed they would be rewarded in the afterlife?

Do you think that your afterlife is real and theirs isn't? Do you realize that they believe that theirs is real and yours isn't?

Some people think that no matter what they do as long as they are told to by someone with supposed spiritual authority that their place in the afterlife is secured. I don't have to debate the rights and wrongs of it, they're entitled to their beliefs, although how they acted on them could be deemed highly reprehensible.
I'm not sure I agree with your comment that our assumptions or beliefs regarding death are a delusion, afterall if none of us have been there in this lifetime and come back with memory of it to tell, then we cannot know what awaits us at the end of our lives.

Wow! No one ever told me that way! Now I'm atheist! That's all you had to do was post something on Yahoo Answers and you completely changed my outlook! Woo hoo! Bring on the naked broads and booze! All you guys had to do was constantly lecture and preach and you wore me down just like people who hold up the John 3:16 signs at football games! Wow! Now I don't think the earth is 6,000 years old (of course I didn't before either)! Now I don't hate science (Actually I never hated it before)! Now I can go to a doctor when I'm sick(actually, I could do that before too)! Now I don't have to send all my money to Televangelists(even though I never did before)!

Thank You! Thank You! (grovelling)

The only rational answer is empirical investigation of the evidence for personal survival of bodily death, through veridical NDEs and spontaneous past-life recall. Such evidence is extremely interesting and prompts all sorts of questions, but is not necessarily completely convincing.

Because I would not fly an airplane into the World Trade Centre, to go to Heaven. In fact if a Christian did that I doubt if they would end up in Heaven. Lets not get crazy here. How do we know that you won't do something crazy because you are not accountable to God at all.

dont worry about what other people think. just have a nice relationship with god whatever your religion or whatever your vehicle to the good God.

personally, i think they were seduced by the devil and not the God of any religion. they were extremists. so if you have any extremist of any religion, that religion will pervert the mind and the thinking of the people under its spell. look at what happened in Salem MA. puritanical extremist put to death witches by putting them on poles and burning them alive, but they were doing it for God. obviously they did it for the Devil and not God.

you have to watch out for the Devil. and by the way, by Devil, I don't mean a cartoon, I mean the representation of anything evil and bad and that which hurts people.

and btw, you just be careful that the bad energy of those terrorists don't hurt you. its obvious they are already hurting you by helping to dismantle any faith you might have. and also posing another doubt in your mind about God. dont let them put that bad energy in you. theres a lot of bad in the world. theres a lot of good. youll be much happier if you side with God and that which is good. dont feel sad. just pray for misguided devil worshippers.

Yes I do know they thought that. Hundreds of young men are being deceived along the same line by Islamic terrorists still. Terribly tragic to lose them to such lies.

Do you think God will reward people for murdering His children? I think not. Those hijackers didn't kill anyone, they murdered them. Vengeance is the Lord's and He will repay.
