Thus there is no god to fear or even the hell the xians invented.
However if subscribing to the delusion of an afterlife allows you to sleep at night, have at it.
EVERYTHING you perceive, ALL of IT occurs in a living brain.
Death is final, learn to live with it.

Physical life, yes. Spiritual life, no. You might believe it's 99.99% certain, but that's not a fact.

There is no such thing as spirits or souls, I have already addressed this.
You are still in the realm of wishful thinking and imaginations.
I deal in reality an stuff that is provable.
EVERYTHING YOU PERCEIVE OCCURS IN A LIVING BRAIN.
IOW, everything you are, believed in held onto as truth also dies. That is the reality.

Death is final, get used to it.
You will not even know you are dead.

No, you don't know that. You believe that, based on the evidence you've observed.

And what have you observe to make you believe what you do?

No, I know that as scientists have proven there is no such thing as a soul. They found ZERO evidence for a soul.
ZERO evidence means that when you die, that is it, fade to black and oblivion.
Everything theists have posited like NDEs, OOBEs are all refuted as being proof of a soul or spirit.
But now I am merely repeating myself and you like playing around in circles.

That does not negate the possibility. We don't know everything.

Seems like someone's admitting that they believe in god due to an argument from ignorance.
