"This is an answer that no Christian could possibly give"
Because no Christian has died, and come back - with video proof - from a so-called 'afterlife'.
Yet, I know the answer to that question: Nothing.
Which is precisely why you fundies cling onto that safe, fluffy security blankie of psychological delusion you call 'faith'. Because the alternative - complete nerological oblivion - it too terrifying for you to contemplate.
Because you know - even though you're in that river in Egypt - that you will end up exactly like we Atheists, looking like leftover pizza.
Cold, clotted, and stuck to the bottom of a box.
And all because you can't answer this simple question; re. an 'Afterlife', certainly the concept of the 'soul'. Just two simple words that completely annihilates your so-called 'faith', and more than justifies Atheism:
Prove it.
Neurological oblivion - via brain-death through hypoxia - is the one cold, hard, scientific fact of life. The final, and only ultimate truth of reality. The answer to the question you'll never ask. Because you darent ask it with a questioning, nay, critical mind. Because you know it'll completely obliterate everything you've been 'taught' to believe, to accept. Facts annihilate 'faith'. Every time. Thus Science is the belief, and Facts is the faith of we Atheists, Bryan. Facts destroy 'faith'. Deal with it.
