There is no god or gods. They are imagined by sad people who feel they have to have something to believe in.
Fact is you have one life, live it, enjoy it and leave others to do as they want.
I do exactly what the little voices tell me to.

PC Specs:- Black box with some fans that go whirrr, a few lights, things inside that get warm, headphones, keyboard (a clicky one), mouse (with buttons and no squeak), disks (2-off SSD and HDD) and a monitor of sufficient proportions.

That's your opinion :)

I do think there is something more, and I believe that we are not alone, and I certainly don't believe in religion. Also I doubt life stops when your ticker doesn't tick. Just the thought that we'd be here for max 100 years in a time-line of billions seems to odd for me, no purpose what so ever, just to random. I'm not sure I think reincarnation is it, but I "hope" that something like that happens. I for one believe in souls, and therefore think there are old souls and newer souls, and possibly a larger awareness. I'm not saying that I believe that when you die, you instantly reincarnate on earth as a human. I think that when your body is without your soul, there is no time, so it could take earthly millennia before it finds a new body, be it here, be it on mars, be it on X245LS/200 (or maybe not even in our universe, maybe there are several).

On subject of religion, personally, saying we are better off without religion, goes to far, but I think if all religions people where passive minded Buddhists then we'd be better off ;)

When you start filling in the gaps with your fear of death you spawn religion. When religions for you get silly rules.

If I told you chocolate cures cancer, you wouldn't believe me. There's evidence to say the people who ate chocolate when they were diagnosed got better through other means. If that definitive evidence wasn't there and you really like chocolate then objectivity goes out the window and you start believing it's true.

I've got no problem with <100 year lifespan. Even stars don't last forever. If there is an afterlife are you going there anyway? Do you have to do something special to qualify? How do you know what you have to do? Why isn't everyone in agreement on what? How long do you stay there for? What is after that?

If you are sure that the afterlife exists what is stopping you going there now? Is that against the rules? How do you know that it is? Etc etc.

I can easily see how religion sprouts without the involvement of God and they all contradict so I have no faith in them. Live life for what it is. Be a nice person because being nice is better for everyone, and if there is an afterlife you'll make it there anyway.

I think that is the worst thing you can do. History has proven it, fighting over what religion is the most true etc. Makes me sad really, and pointless. (unless you want to dominate ofcourse, then fighting is your way)

I agree with you T-bag that they all contradict, but lots of them are saying the same though, if you look more carefull. Not saying it is true ofc. Most are based on books written by humans, claiming it was divine intervention (and precisely that! is my greatest objection to religion)

I'm not saying that you won't get another life or something if your the biggest human monster on earth, or something, or that you get "extra points" if you live your life as saint as possible. However I hope there is something like karma or something, or that our souls "learn" with every re-body-isation (if thats a word :P).

What I truelly believe is: don't do something to another, that you don't want them to do against yourself. This basically is all the 10 Christian commend mends together. Its so simple but so true.

Can't say more then, your right :)
