Is believing in an afterlife stupid?

[morrisseyshair]

Believing in an afterlife seems like fairy tales for adults. Something to make people feel good because being dead for eternity is too scary a thought, so we made up this nice story about an afterlife when it's far more likely it goes dark and that's it.

The reasons are outdated. Religion is an archaic structure and no longer in keeping with the times. Today, everyone has a certain amount of moral education and sophisticated laws have taken over the role. Religion forms a foreign state within the state and undermines democracy.

Moral education is one of the basis of religions ...

Religions are always here, wokism is a form of religion in the west today for example, but called a "political ideology". Witchunts still exist too (cancel culture). Etc.

Religion don't seem as outdated as you think. We just refuse to call it by its real name today.

People are as religious as ever. The religions have just changed.

"Undermines democracy"? Wtf? That is just an empty political slogan. Or can you actually explain what it means?

look into the islam for example . . . is this a democracy? more like a religios, fanatic, fascist dictationship...

Of course it isn't a democracy. My cat is also not a democracy, but he does not "undermine" democracy, whatever that means.

obsolete and retarded stuff literally . . .

is it democracy? no because it is not even democracy in the first place. it's a separate governing system that you can combine with cultures to create a government, not a religion in a theistic sense.

not all muslim countries are the same. i know, because i live in one and this place has democracy, but, hear me out, it is also combined with constitutional monarchy that is also elective because historically, the country is a collaboration with multiple states and each states have a monarch and to maintain monarchy matters a lot as much as religion is.

I find it interesting not one person has said anything about subatomic particles, in which not all decay or get reabsorbed by the Earth and organisms, those remaining particles returning back into the universe and space.

Is there an afterlife? I don't think so but those particles return to the universe but not this body and mind which is a different story (death) but not all particles are lost therefore, life never truly stops, only the body dies.

Nobody has said that because it does not apply. Unless you think the soul is somehow made out of particles.

mathematically it is possible that your body would re-establish (re-incarnate) if all atoms find and return back to their old positions.. however, your brain and intel would form new . . .

There is a distinct difference between a MUSLIM and a FASIQ and a MUNÂFIQ.

Islam condemns any lifestyle of Fâsiqs. Those you mentioned above are Fâsiqs or Munâfiqs.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fasiq#

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Munafiq

Glo.b.alist Car.tel has been supporting and funding Fâsiqs and Munâfiqs (corrupting the Muslim countries by doing so) in the Middle-Eastern region to bring Communist Totalitarian regimes in Middle-East and North Africa region.

they say that if we failed to learn history, we are doomed to repeat. i hate the quote so much as not only it has been misused a lot but also that it will repeat anyway. however, with a bit of caveat, if we don't want to repeat the same mistake, don't undervalue something as it has reasons to exist. this includes religion. i hate communism economically, politically and religiously (or just about anything) and i'm allowed to do that but it has reasons why it exists and their hatred on other religions are one of the many reasons why they fail. i even heard that marx himself didn't condone that. judge the people, not the system.

Like all things in reality, this dimension and others, there is always a blending or a lifting of the veil between reality. While none of us knows for sure, it is with assuming that the human mind holds many secrets, things such as your life flashes before your eyes, could be a interpretation of a afterlife where we are granted a chance to do things over, correct the mistakes we made and even enjoy another existence even more fruitful then the last.

The other side of this is some people make the choice to dwell on life's bad moments making a joyous gift of life a cruel punishment.

If you also believe in reincarnation it is likely that most people desend the reincarnation ladder and are returned to life as lesser creatures. It should be everyone's goal to strive to ascend the ladder and return as a creature far better then the last.

Mean while it has also been suggested that those that cling to this life remain trapped and that is in a sense the true after life, the failure to let go and discard the material world.

In other cases it has been explained that life is weighted by our good deeds and bad to balance the scales of all of our existence and reincarnations, that some could give up or have a choice to be reincarnated, enter the total abyss where they will never be reincarnated again, or ascend before the creator to carry out a more enlightened meaning for the rest of time.

These discussions offer us all a choice on how we perceive death, my personal favorite is to live wonderful for filling lives, and to promote peace and harmony and to advance civilizations understanding of the great beyond, so that more people begin to understand this existence is not just superficial but extends far into the spiritual and metaphysical realms

Well i can entirely believe in some Muslims being genuinely good peoples all in all without the corruption in Maghreb(north africa basically) and the middle east but it seems even the sacred texts written by Mohammed has some sus stuff written in it like Mohammed marrying Aisha and apparently having sex with her when she was 9 years old, so there is that then.

Not saying there isn't valuable traditions in islam or actual virtues but that kinda stuff i mentionned prior is no good personnaly.
