You may or may not be correct. Let us know what the truth is when
you
die. I'll trust your judgment much more then.

One of the most profound things I have EVER read on the Internet.
Thank
you.

To everyone else: Where will YOU be five minutes after you are dead?

Think about what "death" means. You're not going to be anywhere.
You'll be DEAD!.

I
KNOW where I'll be, and if all this is just smoke and mirrors, I'll
just
return to carbon based molecules.

YOU won't. You won't "be" anything. That's what death is.

But if there IS something to all this,
I'll be smiling somewhere. Where will you be?

Place your bets, folks. The dice are rolling.

So you don't have faith. You are just hedging a bet.

Thank you for the judgement, Harry.

Good bye.

FYI, I believe that Jesus is the Son of God, sent to the earth to die for
our sins. I believe he was an actual living man who died on the cross and
went back to Heaven. I believe that he will return to the earth. My point
was that if I am correct in this belief that I will spend eternity
differently than you, who reject Him. And if you're right, I'll just be
dead, as you say. I was just trying to bring others to this belief, which
is a duty of my belief. All men have the option of freedom of choice.

For all, find Christ, and prepare for your eternity now. Repent, and live a
life of being as good as you can manage. If everyone would do that, the
world would be a better place in five minutes.

I know some of you will keep on refusing Christ, and having to
overintellectualize this. I pray for you.

We'll see.

The arrogance of the true believer. "I'll pray for you". I didn't
ask you to, I don't want you to and for your information a scientific
test was run about 2 years ago on the power of prayer.

Patients with serious illnesses were selected and divided into three
groups. Doctors did the evalution.

Group 1 - those who would get no prayers.
Group 2 - those who would be prayed 4
Group 3 - those who didn't know if they were prayed for or not.

The results were ambiguous. There was very little difference between
the groups but what little did show was that the "will be prayed for"
group did slightly worse than the other two. Not enough to be
statitically significant.

You can go to the news group talk.origins and do a search for the
thread. I don't recall the title now.
