    Death being final degrades and insults our humanity

    I agree that we can still have value as human beings, but all I am saying is that death being final would be very degrading and insulting of our humanity. The Jews still have value as human beings, but they were still being insulted and degraded by how they were treated by Hitler.

    Death being final degrades and insults our humanity

    The idea of the afterlife is so important to me since I want a personal private life all to myself where I can be happy all I want and get whatever I want. That is the only good thing in life to me. I don't care about the personal opinions of others who say that this is childish, I need to grow...

    How feelings are the only things that make things and situations matter to us

    I base this on my own personal life experience. During my moments of anhedonia and depression, it didn't matter what I thought to myself and what value judgments I had. All these thoughts and value judgments seemed completely empty. It really seemed as though my good feelings were truly the...

    How feelings are the only things that make things and situations matter to us

    You are claiming that these people are making these value assessments without emotions. But if they are doing so, then I think they would need emotion on at least some given level. But if they really were making these value assessments without any emotions at all, then I think that is not any...

    How feelings are the only things that make things and situations matter to us

    Read what Satans_Serrated_Edge has written to get the idea.

    How feelings are the only things that make things and situations matter to us

    Why not? I think that contradicts what you said earlier.

    How feelings are the only things that make things and situations matter to us

    So, would you agree then that people who struggle with depression and/or anhedonia in which they don't have their good feelings are living lives that have no value and no worth? Do you agree that they should just end their lives if they cannot recover their good feelings back to them within a...

    How feelings are the only things that make things and situations matter to us

    But the previous poster above disagreed with me and gave a rebuttal to me. I responded back. Therefore, go ahead and read his post and my response to it. Then get back to me with your assessment.

    How feelings are the only things that make things and situations matter to us

    Bees would have to have no value and no worth in their lives then. They would be nothing more than mere life forms surviving. Even though they do things that give the impression that they have value and worth in their lives despite the fact that they cannot feel, they actually don't have any...

    How feelings are the only things that make things and situations matter to us

    I am going to post yet another example of how feelings are the only things that make our lives matter and things/situations matter to us. Imagine someone who could never feel sad about the people who were always dying next to him/her. The death of these people would not matter to him/her...

    Why doesn't God punish all sinners?

    Cruel can also simply mean that they have a disgusting attitude and nothing more. In that same sense, rich can also mean that you simply have a lot of money and nothing more. It doesn't always mean that you are happy, living after your own passions, unpunished, etc.

    Why doesn't God punish all sinners?

    When you say a statement such as: "We see cruel people out in this world. We seem them harm and torture others." Now this statement does not indicate that all cruel people harm and torture others; only some. In that same sense, I was not implying that all rich and happy people are uncaring...

    Why doesn't God punish all sinners?

    You make a blind assumption about me where you are thinking that I am only applying these attributes to rich, happy, and wealthy people. I am not. I am also applying these attributes to even poor and low class people who don't preach the gospel, live only for themselves and their own...

    Why doesn't God punish all sinners?

    It's because I am talking about the biblical God here who would be the Christian God. This would be a sin because if these rich and happy people are not preaching the gospel, living in sinful pleasures and lust, seeking after their own passions and desires, etc., then that is sinful according...

    Why doesn't God punish all sinners?

    When there are sick children who die early of age, this is claimed to be God's way of punishing them since they were in sin. Yet, we see people living in far worse sin. We see rich, happy, uncaring people living in fancy mansions. But it seems as though these people don't get punished at all...

    Religious families with secular family members

    God thinks sinners who don't change (in this case, secular humanists with an unchanging secular worldview) are disgusting and reprehensible. Therefore, your analogy of turning someone into the police does not apply because God truly hates these secular humanists. He is not loving them and...

    Religious families with secular family members

    But surely god does not think the same way. If he is going to condemn these people on judgment day to eternal hell, then surely he does not have a kind and loving attitude towards these people. Like I said, this whole idea of having a loving and compassionate attitude towards secular family...

    Religious families with secular family members

    That post of mine was directed towards Christians and other such religious believers in this whole doctrine of condemnation and hell. I never claimed that you said it wasn't a contradiction.

    Religious families with secular family members

    If god promotes acts of love and compassion towards secular human beings who would never change their worldview and would never serve a god they don't believe in, then why doesn't god also display acts of love and compassion towards these secular human beings on judgment day? See, this is a...
