RE: After DEATH , what happens to our SOULS ??
The hole in the Bible story plot is big enough for a zoo full of talking donkeys and flying horses.
Some of these donkeys and flying horses have found their way to Steemit!
Thanks for this super hilarious comment, @remil.
Hey @juderita!
Similarly I laughed my toddler to scorn when he claimed "Atoms and Sub atomic particle don't EXIST because he can't visualise them"🤣🤣🤣
The important point is to tell your child that we can prove atoms exist, and radio waves, and microwaves, and gravity, and so on. But that your kid should never ever believe claims that are not backed up by evidence. Basically, to follow the atheistic approach: Only believe what is proven, for all the rest, keep on hunting for real evidence instead of fabricating answers like religiots do.
At that level he does not have the CAPACITY to so understand. No teaching methodology can achieve it .
So , he need to develop his mental capacity ,by growth , willingly !!
Most of us are akin to stubborn children who REFUSED , by volition to apply themselves to knowledge that liberates ! They are therefore stucked , hamstringed , cocoooned by pride and Ignorance!
@whyaskwhy, you are making comparisons that are inappropriate.
When @remil said,
he is merely saying you need to prove souls exist before asking the question you posted. He is not making any definitive statement on the existence or non-existence of souls.
When there is no proof of something (say, souls), you can at best say possibly souls exist. If there is some evidence but not enough, you can say souls probably exist. But in both cases you cannot act as if souls definitely exist.
If scientist can prove the existence of souls the way they figured out and proved the existence of atoms and sub-atomic particles, only then can we say souls exist. (See How Did We Figure Out Atoms Exist?
)
Until then, answering @remil statement
with
is dishonest argument.
My very Esteemed @juderita. Please note:
You may not note it but he was alluding to non existence of anything beyond physical cognition as typical of ALL Atheists . Do you even know he is a self confessed atheist ??
I think ,he confessed same in the thread . You may schroll through.
I am typicaly open to every shade of opinions and believes . But whoever opposes mine MUST prove beyond sentiments. This account for me asking him to prove otherwise , being the ACCUSER.
Hear him here :
His intro indicates Souls ,God , Satan etc does NOT EXIST by his logic .
It is his responsibility therefore to prove his allegations against me .
Could you please help him🤣🤣
Good morning!!
Hi @whyaskwhy,
He is not "alluding to non existence of anything beyond physical cognition." I cannot see anything in his writing to come to this conclusion. Could you please explain why you came to this conclusion, so that I can see your perspective?
Yes, I know he is an atheist. Although I am not an atheist I have no problem with anyone being an atheist or whatever they want to be PROVIDED they keep their beliefs or convictions to themselves and don't try to shove it down my throat through religious or non-religious rhetoric. Everyone and every living creature has a place in this grand scheme of things.
I don't think he needs any help. If he (as an atheist) needs help then definitely you will need more help than him. As an atheist he came to his conclusions based on rational thinking using scientific reasoning. However, you are basing your conclusions based on a single book (with many contradictions within the same book, many versions and interpretations and no single consensus among the many denominations) purportedly from God, without any scientific reasoning.
Religious people faced with contradictory views go through cognitive dissonance, which many of them struggle to handle and cope with.
Here is a video which may be of interest to the readers of this thread who are struggling to cope with their cognitive dissonance, including you. If you are not suffering cognitive dissonance, that too is perfectly ok and you don't have to watch this video.
