That's because in schools they probably don't want religious beliefs involved in science.

Let's talk about God, Zone. Tell us exactly why you don't believe in God. I will not bash you, I promise, and nobody else shoud bash you.

What made me change my mind on the religion? Let's just say I was and am very angry at the people who run it. I have absolutely nothing against the religion itself. I respect all religions whatever they may be.
Newsflash!
There is no scientific law that states that an all-knowing, all-powerful being has been here since the beginning of time cannot be possible.
Allstorie's reason is one of mine. Another, as I stated in another topic, is this: The thought that you go to a nice place (Heaven, reincarnation, etc.) when you die was created to rid people's fear of death. Afterlife beliefs sprouted into religion.
I was christianed but have never gone to church and Im now an atheist and will stay like that.
In Science class, we were watching a video on volcanoes. On one part of the video, they talked about Moses, and the ocean that he "split apart." They said that it was created my volcanic activity.That's because in schools they probably don't want religious beliefs involved in science.
Maybe not for you. That is just one reason for me to convert I have many but I'm not going to explain them, I see no reason why I should.Red530 said:Then you don't really have a good reason for converting.
If I were to convert, then I would convert because of the belief and not the people running the church.
Red530 said:But why do you doubt an afterlife? The afterlife was and is not an idea created by people. I have dreamt of myself in the shoes of other people. Who knows, this life I could be living may be my 100th.
Many people have had dreams of older times. My uncle had a dream that he was at the opening of the Statue of Liberty. o_0
But I don't an afterlife. My family has seen the spirits of MANY relatives. With that evidence I can not doubt an afterlife.

YoMama said:You can never be too sure. If that found out all the mysteries of the past, then all of this Moses, Allah and Muhammad, Budda stuff wouldn't be just a theiry or belief.

If that be the case, why create a Hell? If people wanted something to believe in, they might as well just have made up the story of a Heaven, without there being a hell. That way, you could do whatever you pleased, not care where you go knowing that in the end, you would be happy.
Reincarnation
Now we're talking about reincarnation. You say reincarnation is a reason for us to not be afraid of death. Have you heard that you can be reincarnated as a bug? Who would want to be a bug?
Your theories simply do not stand.
YoMama said:Religion has been a conflict throughout the years. Just look at what Hitler did. He and the Nazis tortured 11 million people to death, most of them but because they were Jewish.
Zone said:Yes. Would a peace-loving god really allow conflicts such as this to happen?
