[QUOTE="MoonNinja, post: 2672675, member: 799703"] Not much for me to say here but I will throw this in - those of us that believe in an afterlife seem to spend their current life obsessing over how to achieve the "good" afterlife, and of course, the notion of afterlife is rather unjustified. I can't imagine anyone bringing forth any evidence that can settle the notion of how we can achieve the "good" afterlife and to avoid the "bad" afterlife, so our attempts at living our lives to worrying and acting in faith to whatever we think will earn the "good" afterlife is akin to a shot in the dark. If there is a specific manner to act or live such that only the humans that do it earn exclusive rights to afterlife, your guess is as good as mine so long as no evidence can be submitted to resolve the issue. This reminds me of "Betting on Infinity" by TheraminTrees and Qualiasoup. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fZpJ7yUPwdU So far as we know, our current life is the only one we have, and that perception of my finite amount of time gives it very precious value, as it is a limited resource. I have too little time to waste it betting on the infinite possibilities concerning the unknown, I'd rather do something and leave something that can contribute some good to humanity. That seems to be a more constructive use of my time. [/QUOTE]
