Re: Angelic ancestors

As I see it, chocolate came from the Incas and other similar heathens: (i) it is thus heathen, (ii) Cortez slaughtered them all because they were heathens and stole chocolate for the pope (iii) therefore not only is chocolate heathen, it is tainted by the Antichrist, the vicar of Rome, otherwise known as the pope!

Spit it out! Your very soul is at risk!

But if Cortez stole the chocolate for the pope......then I think that the pope liked the little brown and yummie piece of food and that he wanted it all for itselfs....

tsk,tsk, tsk... that poor pope...

This just shows how dangerous chocolate is. It's fine if consumed in moderation - say, once a fortnight or so - by a healthy heterosexual Christian gentleman like myself, but if consumed in excess by a feeble-minded Polack like the poster above, the effects can be most worrying.

Re: Angelic ancestors

How can you smell something over the internet?

A sock puppet is an account that is under the control of another user, and has the purpose of creating the illusion of another online persona, or giving the illusion of support.

That, my friend definitely comes with an odor that can smelt over the internet.

Re: Angelic ancestors

Sommanol, in response to my challenge to prove no spiritual afterlife is possible:

Where would that afterlife be:
1) heaven. There have been many space trips, and non of them has seen something like a heaven.
2) Hell. It is commonly known that there is only rock, magma etc under the surface. No such thing as hell.

Friend, your post is irrelevant to the challenge.

Suppose that at death souls are transported outside the Universe to the holy dimension which God inhabits -- a dimension beyond space and beyond time? Your argument is then irrelevant. (The Christian astrophysicist Gerardus Bouw proposes that the Throne of God exists "outside" the spacetime universe, for example.)

Or suppose that souls are preserved on a dimensional plane -- a holy spiritual plane -- which exists in the Universe but is invisible to physical science?

What you have attacked are the medieval ideas of Heaven and Hell, not the possibility of an afterlife. I can think of arguments which -- although not final and not absolute -- are at least stronger than your attack on Medieval cosmogony.

Give it another shot. You're a bright fellow. Take a hint from physics, and think about mechanisms for the survival of a soul.

Re: Angelic ancestors

Haha! You can twist and squirm and misspell "their" all you like, Peter, but Brother Bathfire has written you into a corner.
baptists 0-4 scientists, says enough.

He was making a rather finely-tuned joke with "carp god" (as he said, that part of his comment was "on the humorous side") but -- like most sour, God-hating fools -- you were just too thick to twig.
Dude, you guys s*ck in humour.

I would be interested if you can prove that there is no afterlife. What you have to do here is not just say that there is no evidence that there is an afterlife; your task is to show that there is specific, positive evidence that no afterlife exists. In other words, show evidence proving that no spiritual afterlife is possible.
Where would that afterlife be:
1) heaven. There have been many space trips, and non of them has seen something like a heaven.
2) Hell. It is commonly known that there is only rock, magma etc under the surface. No such thing as hell.

Good luck on that. It is a rough test.

Indeed oei.

Hic et nunc means "here and now", so actually it is used to say that you should enjoy your life, because when you're dead it's over, nothing, no heaven nor hell.
And you can't escape the last one, even with worshipping a false idol (like your "god") you can't escape from it. Religious people ruin there entire life worshipping an imaginary person. Why? Because they think that there is an afterlife. And there ain't no afterlife.
End of the match: "god": still 0 Scientists:4.

Nice solo!

Mmmm, chocolate...

Why are you thinking of chocolate in this thread. That's like homer (from The Simpsons): SSSST! I'm thinking! Mmmm, peanuts..
