I Don't Believe There Is Any Kind Of God, But.

[SparklyKid]

I fervently believe there is a pink flying haggis monster.

Any proof otherwise ?

And there is a monster in loch ness

I just get sick and tired of endless quotes and references to this bible nonsensical book of fiction.

I think you would enjoy looking into Pastafarianism, SK - see the above Wiki link.

When you know that you have only a few breaths left to you. Amazingly, you’ll feel more open to the possibility of a higher power.

[pixie374]

Not true, David... from experience from dying atheists. They don't change their minds.

[allenlondon]

Being an atheist doesn’t mean you don’t deny the existence of other planes of existence, you just don’t waste your life banging on about them.

But you don’t know their inner thoughts pixie374.
Death is a great leveller. I imagine they are quite astounded when they realise there is an afterlife. My opinion of course. But based upon personal experiences.

[Mamyalynne]

You're perfectly entitled to your fervent belief SK.

[pixie374]

I do, David.... literally their last seconds. Unless you are suggesting they are all lying?

[pixie374]

What are your personal experiences, David? Obviously nobody has ever returned to tell us there is an afterlife... so where are you getting it from?

That really explains a lot about you.

The pink haggis, like the unicorn, is extinct.
It was hunted out of existence by invading Redcoats long ago when General Wade was paving the way for his troops to gain easy access to the fabled land of the golden sporran.
They didn't fly either, that myth arose when the occupiers discovered a proper drink, the water of life.
It caused their weak minds to be visited by fantastic visions of strange beasties.

Happy to set the record straight. :-)

Tbf, there is as much evidence for sparkly's post, as there is for religion. Which, I suspect was the point.

[david small]

Pixie374. Personal experiences. Five people in a room sitting discussing death of our father. The room becomes filled with an overwhelming smell of his aftershave lotion. All five experience it. Just one incident. I could recount many from mother, sister, uncle, very haunted house etc. There are more things in heaven etc. As I wrote pixie374 it’s a personal experience and we react in different ways to similar stimulus.

Death is a great leveller. I imagine they are quite astounded when they realise there is an afterlife.

Nonsense, dead is dead, end of .

[pixie374]

We do, David. I assume you know about mass hysteria (not how it sounds). Did not a single person mention the smell of aftershave while everyone was still there?

[douglas9401]

Old Spice does tend to linger though.
