Not sure I follow your reasoning there, but let me try to rephrase what I'm saying, maybe that will be more clear:

The existence of a god, at least in the common sense of the term, does not make logical sense to me. I have seen no evidence that supports it and heard no arguments in favor of it that I've found convincing. So that makes me a non-believer.

Thinking there may possibly be something out there is fine. I don't believe in a God, but I think it is possible.

Believing in something without any proof is massively insane. Cripplingly destructive.



Religion isn't that deep of a subject. It's pretty cut and dry. Believe or not. God in any shape or form.

Also, I don't have to prove that the lack of proof proves that that I need more proof. Pretty crazy.

Not all religions are the same. Buddhists doesn't believe in a creator, yet they believe in rebirth and an after-life.

I guess you haven't realized that by being an atheist, you too believe in something that has yet to be definitively proven.

Who said all religions are the same? I personally think any religion is illogical.

Rebirth has got to be one of the more crazy religious concepts though. Always makes me chuckle. You would think something such as that would have been proven by now.

Atheism only becomes illogical if there is proof of a god. Until then, there is no more sensible viewpoint.

Are atheists allowed into the afterlife? Even if they are really nice and make mince pies for tramps and stuff. I hope so.

You need to come down to Earth a little, Tom. All religions are illogical? What an arrogant and illogical statement. There are some religions, like Buddhism, that consist of some very deep wisdom. If more people thought like a Buddhist Monk, the world would be a better place.

And there are some pretty intriguing cases that support rebirth.

Elements of Buddhism are great. Afterlife... Rebirth... **mental sense tingling**

There are some very interesting cases of rebirth. Look some up. I used to speak of a past life as a child. I could barely form sentences, yet I was talking about a previous life. Seems kind of strange, considering a child of that age couldn't possibly understand the concept of rebirth.

Make a movie or something.

I've been working on it.
