Most believers are atheists

Most believers who claim that they believe in God are atheists and the following simple lines prove that.

After death there is nothing as they say and this nothing that there is, is what people become to stay that way forever. For the same money you get to see a house that becomes nothing to stay that way forever.

Add in account that most people don’t even understand these few simple lines and that they don’t understand the consequences and then it is good to remember that one day these consequences will be in the advantage of those who do understand these few simple lines.

I have a little trouble with this line of thought. If someone says they believe something, what else can I do other than take them at their word? They don't have to fall in line with specific scripture to be a theist. They just have to believe that a god in any form exists.

That begs the question, "How would you know this is accurate?" (That is coming from a "strong" atheist, btw.)

Could you please explain these few simple lines? They do not make sense to me.

Have you noticed that the OP has no idea how to use commas? Lol.

At least I am getting a laugh out of this post and its answers. You, in turn, seem to be just scratching your head. Hope you don't go bald. :)

To have this much fun without paying a dime is unusual.:D


OK, can *you explain what the OP meant?

Noohh! And commenting on it to anyone too frankly on this site will get the MODs breathing down my back. Ohhh, but, You are one of the MODsters. :D:D
Hope you can take a joke. Please outline the next few lines as with a copy paste job, below here.

This question was one of the most meaningless ones I have seen. It just made me laugh to see you guys answering it the way you did. (And, now I have offended the questioner. Oops)

Fair enough.

BTW, frankness can be polite. Moderation is more for rudeness.

It's reasonably clear to me that the author is noting that introspection regarding the liminal necessarily borders on the barely known an casually unknown due to the impossibility of modeling nothing using a mind that is minimally something instantiates at the earliest sign of individual somethinghood and this transubstantiation inevitably occurs prior to and degree of realization.

How do you know what happens after we die? Are you basing this on experience or some Flying Spaghetti Monster type conjectures?

Reality always turns out to be so much stranger than anything we could have ever imagined. I would be pretty shocked if the Old Testament God turned out to be real. But at the same time, I bet there are some experiences on the way to final death that will not be without some surprises.
