Atheists... Your life is pointless

How come you never quote me right no more?

Yeah, but if you listen to me, you will know there is no such thing as a roasting, toasting, flaming, burning, hell. . . .

From <christadelphia>:

THE BIBLE is a reasonable book. There is nothing contradictory about it: everything fits together in a manner that makes its message both dynamic and easy to understand. Its teachings make sense and it is this simple logic that presents such a challenge that no-one of good will can deny its impact.

This booklet has been written to show that - in contrast to the plain and reasonable teaching of Scripture - popular ideas about heaven and hell are unreasonable. What are these ideas? For centuries it has been commonly believed by most professing Christians that heaven is the abode of the righteous dead where they experience everlasting joy and happiness, and that hell is the eternal abiding place of the wicked who are subject to never-ending torment in its unquenchable fires.

In more recent times many have abandoned the idea of hell-and with it any real desire to investigate whether this is, in fact, a true reflection of what the Bible teaches. This abhorrence of eternal suffering (surely a right instinct) has caused men to cherish instead a vague hope of universal salvation-that all will enjoy eternal happiness irrespective of the works done during their mortal life. Yet that has now left people with a sense of unease, because they sense an injustice in assuming that there can be a reward for both good and bad alike.

And how exactly do you know you will have eternal "life?"

The premise is correct. Atheists, like short people, have no reason to live.

So what? As it happens I like to live, so I don't need your steenking reasons to do it.

The premise is correct. Atheists, like short people, have no reason to live. The only thing they have to look forward to is the endless sleep where we no longer have to contend with the trials & tribulations of day to day survival, and the endless dribble of those who desire confirmation that their particular fiction is the 'only true fiction.'

If I were an atheist, and I weren't driven by this endless desire to see tomorrows sunset I'd have to lock up my razorblades, toxic chemicals, rope, and explosives to keep myself from that final, terminal rest.

But then sometimes I lose that desire ti see tomorrows sunset.

Atheists don't need imaginary reasons for living. They just do it.
