O.P. RE: Do heaven and hell exist?
i think that there is a life after death.

i like to look at all religions and kind of summarize what they say, its all the same in the end. no matter what, they all point in the same direction - life after death. so whether it be a human invention to overcome fear of death. or a way/source of control... i think it is still odd that so many people in so many different places all seek to believe in something existing after death.

there is no solid proof, i mean there can never be. (unless you die and you actually see it for yourself)

umm... i dunno, i like to believe that the world had to start somewhere. perhaps it always existed, or maybe something triggered it to start existing... and maybe that something was god :P... and when we die we go back to the source of all existance. it may not be heaven/hell but just maybe something is there.

i know, whats with "science" i mean what REAL proof is there in science? they keep on changing stuff and cant really explain the source of "matter's" existence. or why its even there.

the only thing that is constant is math :P

EDIT:
Joanna hates math

i believe that there is an after life, but it can be explained through science.

When you die, you decompose and your nutrients get absorbed into the soil, which in turns feeds the trees, grass and plants, that then get eaten by animals, who die, have their nutrients absorbed into the soil...

that is SO awesome.. and true in every way

it makes me sort of wonder if life is recycled sort of. maybe we existed always... we just get sort of absorbed and transform into different living forms. and now we are combinations of millions of different forms :o

yes it is

and i dont get all these gothic satanic worshipers:S doont theyt know that bye them praising the devil will only make their after life a bagillion times worse. Like the devil isnt their to make ppl worship him, hes their to punish sinners and ppl of wrong doings.

but i dunno if i beleive in all that stuff. science is very powerful, i think us as human beings, us as animals on this world because that is what we are. animals. couldnt deal with the idea of dying because with imagination came horror and fear. Fear that someday we might die, so what do we as imaginative thinking creatures do.... we created an after life because we cannot deal with the plaine and simple fact that we will die. thats it were here we live we die, it happens to alll creatures, and will happen for us.

Now on the other hand think of the human brain, it knows what it is doing 99% of the time it knows whats right, it functions our organs inside our bodies and controls everything we do. If the brain is right 99% of the time, what and who is the first thing or person you call upon when faced with a problem.Ur brain knows to think and say "o my GOD" "please help me GOD" the brain is suppose to know and thats what it it knows, God. Now is that because the brain knows more then we do or is it because we were raised in catholic society.

Now think of it this way if u dont beleive in god and never worship then when u die, u die meh w/e but what if their was heaven and u missed out.

Now if u beleive in god and heaven and praise him what will that do, if u die and theirs nothing w/e ur dead done capoot, but if their is heaven what did u have to lose from beleiving in god, u are now in a wonderful afterlife because u beleived in something others didnt and was rewarded

ive had numerous discussions about this stuff whith many ppl and there is so much different ways to go at it.

in conclusion, Believe in God, what harms it gonna do. U may die and be done or u may live eternally.




wow i just wrote a fricken report i think im gonna use that someday in my ethics class:|

i know you didn't mean this in any such way, but just so that nobody interprets this differently. i dont want there to be some fight over this ;)

so - keep in mind that there are MANY variations of satanism. and many different beliefs about them. as well as many different beliefs about who and why god punishes, or even if he exists.
