What do you care? If there is an eternity neither you or I will be involved...We will both be dead, and our atoms will be recycled.

We are all made of "star stuff" and our atoms will be recycled many times and eventually back into a former star, what we now call a black hole.



Beats sitting around heaven all day with absolutely nothing to do for eternity.

Thats ONLY if we have a solely material Universe , which we dont. We have been given a spiritual nature , a Soul, and it is derived from our Creator . Puts a whole new perspective on the Ball Game. The greatest shock to most people will be a second after they die, physically --- Im looking forward to it .

It aint going to be boring being with the personal theistic Creator ; 'no eye has seen, no ear has heard, no mind hath concieved the things which God has in store for those who love him.' It will be better than a mouse in a cheddar cheese factory that just added a new wing for blue cheese manufacture .

Do you have the exact same improvisational, role-playing imaginary friend as they supposedly did?

You are so out of date...

The Discovery Institute announced that over 700 scientists had expressed support for intelligent design as of February 8, 2007. This prompted the National Center for Science Education to produce a "light-hearted" petition called "Project Steve" in support of evolution. Only scientists named "Steve" or some variation (such as Stephen, Stephanie, and Stefan) are eligible to sign the petition. It is intended to be a "tongue-in-cheek parody" of the lists of alleged "scientists" supposedly supporting creationist principles that creationist organizations produce. The petition demonstrates that there are more scientists who accept evolution with a name like "Steve" alone (over 1100) than there are in total who support intelligent design. This is, again, why the percentage of scientists who support evolution has been estimated by Brian Alters to be about 99.9 percent. Level of support for evolution - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
