+127 It takes a cocky person to say they know what happens after death, no matter what belief they have. amirite?

One thing that really pisses me off about this site, and in real life as well, is when people try to make other people feel stupid about/put down their beliefs regarding god or the afterlife. I'm pretty much against all religion, and I don't really believe in the concepts of heaven or hell that I've been taught, but I don't go around looking down my nose at people who feel differently. To me it's just as far out there to believe in heaven as it is to believe in oblivion, what the fuck makes a belief in one so much better than the other? The only criticism I have is against people who never take time to really question their beliefs from time to time, that includes both atheists and the religious alike.

Umm sorry but from your comment I'm not sure if my post offended you or if it just incited your opinion.

Haha No it's not an offensive post, it just brought to mind all of the cocky bastards that like to bash other people's beliefs.

I don't see how that was freaking out? A little bit annoyed, maybe. I really don't think this post is a joke, it's true. Just look at the comment below you. Nobody actually KNOWS what happens, we just have ideas. People just like to state their opinions as facts and I find it irritating. :/

No not really. I have strong faith that God is real. And I will go to heaven.

So you are against gnostic theists and atheist (meaning that they are sure what the think is true)? I personally am an agnostic atheist. I'm not an anti-theist, but when I see the bible being used as an excuse to repress people, I start to feel like one.

Actually I myself am an atheist. I just don't like it when people think that they know for a fact (not what they believe) what happens after death, when the only way to really know for certain is to die.

I get that. I really hate people who act like I'm stupid for not thinking what I do. Oh, and just to be clear I meant gnostic theists and gnostic athesits. I realize that could have been unclear.
