Far enough to be born, or live for more then a couple of days. That's before you get to how life itself depends on killing other life. 10ebber10, I'm an atheist. It's rather hard to ask that question and not to be.
As for your response, a life consisting entirely of short pain that brings harm to all is an interesting way of running the world.
Are you talking just about miscarriages then?
Because... I'm not understanding what it is you're asking me. Or what you're reading for that matter.
I mean... yeah, this life isn't all there is (thank God). Life's a bitch, and then you die, and then you're judged by the only one who can judge you.
As long as you aren't an asshole to everyone, I don't see what's so wrong with that.
Also, I'm gonna go right out and say it: I think an Agnostic/Atheist person has a greater chance of going to heaven than a false "believer" has. Rich man vs. Camel going through a needle an' all that.
(Rich man as in a man who gives nothing to those in need, but instead thinks only of himself. I don't think all rich people are damned.
Just the conservatives
)
((That was joke, just in case you're republican.))
Oh, and like Fq says, I don't see why atheists have to act so cynical when talking to other people. Just because you don't believe in God, that doesn't mean you shouldn't be happy.
You wanna be cynical, be Jewish.
((That was another joke. Seriously though, the Old Testament is pretty cynical in places.))
And... ninja'd again.
Most of what God does here is inspiration. It's like he watches us, and sees how we really act to each other. But if we need help, he will give it.
But I think God made science, and designed it to be so understandable. It's like he made an auto-pilot for the universe.
