RobinRohan has died

No offense, but for now I don't take it for granted that this is true. I suspect Robin put you up to it.

If I'm wrong, forgive me. But I hope I'm right because that would mean he's alive. I did like Robin. I hope he's in paradise if it's a true story, and if paradise exists.

For all I know all of you are merely computer programs, designed to confuse me. But for what it's worth, I regarded Robin an eclectic somewhat. Perhaps this explains his honesty, in his views pertaining to Christianity, and his support for positions that were not necessarily his own.

...That's a shame. Unbelievable.

LOL. I understand why you say this to Buz..but I suppose it does raise the subject. When people die, it does seem incredibly shocking and awful, the thought that somebody can end. A person with his or her own unique personality. With a whole lifetime of projects and goals and achievements.
I'm not saying this is a time to get your bible out, but personally, I can't believe that a person just ends and that's that.

What a horrible world, if every victim never sees paradise, what an awful accident this universe would be. My hopes rest on victims having their reward, and the evil having theirs!! Is that so wrong?

I know. In a way, it's like before birth. Nobody felt sorry for me before birth> "me" is only one page in the book called the fourth dimension.

I know...he's probably boring God to death right now as we type.

I just like things, and people. I never throw things away because of their worth. Each thing/person is valuable to me in it's own unique way. Has it's own character.

There is no RR to feel sorry for, but there was an RR, which I would like to see continue, even if he was just a burnt out old two stroke.

All the depressing evidence seems to agree with your post.

I suppose all any of us can do is enjoy the time given, like you said. Laughing a lot, etc..

I understand why you can't see that as true. I myself acknowledge that it is wishful thinking on my own part, to a big degree. I'm happy to be hopeful, and I accept I could easily be wrong.

I suppose it depends a lot on how plausible one thinks heaven/hell is. Hell, to me, as in - atheists burn, is totally incredulous, and cannot be true. My whole being tells me that such a God couldn't be the one who made the universe, if God exists. Heaven? If it's another earth, only peaceful, I can imagine it.

For me, it's amazing that the earth is here and we can sit and chat with eachother, in the first place. That's what makes me think it can possibly happen to us again in another reality, beyond death. Don't worry, I'm not trying to cause a debate, it's just my own opinion on that subject.

I kind of feel sorry for the latter guy, but whatever floats his boat eh.

That's bad. That is is young. I've got those things ahead of me..unless I go first.

That's because a lot of people don't believe in the supernatural easily. As far as they can tell, it doesn't exist, because there is no evidence, and there is also evidence to the contrary.

They see death and suffering as evidence against a benevolent God. Reality is contrary to religious notions.

Atheist + Agnostic = no claims bonus.

We don't get a no claims bonus because we make the claim that the supernatural exists, because we only have the natural, and A+A don't claim anything beyond it.

It's tough cheese. Chew on it and swallow like I did.
