    What do you believe happens when we die?

    Our brain ceases functioning, our body decomposes. There is such thing as soul or spirit that would survive us to our death. We simply cease to exist as a human being, like we didn't exist before our birth.

    Pascal's Wager. Dawkins with God.

    We can shorten the argument into: the more wonderful the promise, the more justified it is to bet on it. If it were medecine, this would sound not so different than quackery.

    Question about the natural world for atheists

    I'm an atheist. Even if a god exists, it doesn't mean that it comes with afterlife. There are religions where there are gods, but no particular belief in afterlife. It's a particular feature of the christianity and islam and some others that a god offers afterlife. Even in the oldest parts of...

    Why does the Qur'an say that Jews claim Ezra is the son of God?

    The Rabbinic Jews don't. Not others Jews, otherwise even Jesus, who was Jewish, wouldn't have been called like Son of God, which is not something invented by Qur'an. Your point was about Ezra being called Son of God by Qur'an, not about anyone called like that.

    Why does the Qur'an say that Jews claim Ezra is the son of God?

    Verse 9.30 does not speak of Ezra, it speaks of "Uzayr". It's hadiths that equate Uzayr to Ezra. But hadiths were interpreting statements enacted by religious scholars that put them back into the mouth of Muhammad, himself assumed to be the guy by whom this anonymous book called Qur'an was...

    Hello from Trysdar

    Let's say that based on my own interpretation of your statement, and underlying concepts that you may be aware of or may be unaware of, I can agree. I fully disagree with both statements. However I'm not sure this introduction forum is the right place to debate this.

    Hello from Trysdar

    We could have a divergent understanding of your "reject any religious depictions of God" here. When I said that I became atheist but not because of "reject any religious depictions of God", I meant by that that it's not because I disliked what is written in the Scriptures (although, yes I...

    Hello from Trysdar

    In fact, I didn't reject any religious depictions of God. I rejected Islam ten years ago, for reasons that I don't want to expose here, because I believe it's not the right place, but I still retained a monotheistic faith at that time. It's much later, by chance, that I came to the logical...

    Hello from Trysdar

    Hello, Short introduction of myself. I was a Sunni Muslim and Sufi follower. Then I dropped Islam for mere Monotheism, without Scriptures. I found no interest in other religions. Then I shortly came to Qur'an alone movement for a few months. And finally since a few years now, I'm plainly an...
