Renagade and Chrono made some very good points.
However, the question that lie at hand is plain and simple: What happens when we die?
As far as I know, with knowledge that I've acquired all these years, is that the brain functions by storing, relating, processing info, memories, incidents, experiences. Once a person is declared brain-dead, all these "memory stored" will be erased. Whatever experience we had on Earth is officially over and and done with.
As for a soul, what is a soul? Who defined it? Did that human being who coined that word ever seen or experience a conversation with a soul? Have anyone of us seen, felt or hear a soul talking to us? Maybe when you are on LSD, it could be a religious experience for many. Other than that, in our very sane society...all we see and hear about life after death is all very well-managed by the TV media.
Religion has proven to unite many groups of people, restore their self-confidence or what-not.
The Bible does have many articles explaining the works of Jesus and many other great men. In today's context, they seem relatively incredible and yet, we have yet to see any of those stuff since the bible was completed.
I tend to believe what I see and all I see is people giving money to Churches, sexual molestation in Catholic Churches worldwide resulting in deaths, low self-esteem and what-not. Capitalism and Sex all rolled into one. Don't quote me on this...I am just relaying what the TV has informed me.
Off topic, Could Evil be more tempting that Good? It seems to fit every citeria our World at large is presently engaging in evil activities as defined by CNN. Besides, evil is defined by the standards of the society.
Heaven is a mystery to anyone who's still alive....until we see, experience and live it, I feel that it'll be foolish to believe any works written by men. After all, there were like us and damn, our minds can take our thoughts to a whole new different level everytime, whether sane or high. Many cults have emerged over years and are still emerging.....All you need is a charismatic twat to make you believe what he says and a beautiful protrait of YOUR life is painted by someone's flowery words....
Eversince I was corned by this Christian pastor who talked a load of bullshit about evolution to me, it made me realized that human beings talk a lot of shit, translate whatever they have learn or read onto anything, anyone, thinking it's 100% accurate.
Believe 50/50 and choose what's right...no one can influence your thinking...be yourself....one life, too many things to do, too little time.
