The Advantage of Being an Athiest

There is no advantage with being an Athiest.

Still gotta put 'em in the ground when they're dead.

Still gonna cry over the loss of one cared for.

Some will wonder if they'll ever see them again.

Some will live with a heartache and a question...the rest of their lives.

Atheists make it harder on everyone that gives a damn about them, in the end. :mad:

Only if those who care about them are very religious. For an atheist, the thought of dying and going into oblivion rather than some sort of afterlife, holds no more terrors than the simple thought of death. I've noticed that very few religious people are keen to get into the afterlife, i. e. most don't want to die any more than atheists do. Most of the few exceptions seem to be suicide bombers...

*contently sighs*

All wanna go to heaven but none wish to die :)

I agree mane... There is no terror and there is no fear of death. I will sleep of eternity... Oh and I do love to sleep.. Good times.

Just as one must open ones eyes in order to see, one must open ones mind in order to understand. That's about as simply and as logically as one can put it. :)
Ok I don't need logic to open my mind to you. It is my choice. Not a logical choice, not a linear or non-linear choice, not a random choice, not a mathematical or scientific choice... just a choice. You are welcome to write in it whatever you want or can when I'm here, and I'm going to call it Seattlegal's. I don't have to do that, and it is not available to everyone. If a rational reason is required then I hereby make the law for myself that I will listen to people from Seattle when I'm in Seattle. That pertains only to Seattle and does not disclude other people from around the world, nor does it disclude me from finding more insane laws to follow for other people that I don't know.
