Your welcome. That's why I joined.
Sad, most definitely. Even if a person accepts their own death, they will still probably be touched by the loss of something they love. It could be their dog, even. I have known someone who has died, and though I have accepted it, and I know that they are 'okay', I can not say that I am not sad that I can't go over to their house and see them whenever I want.
I don't know concerning all of them. These are other people's children (I don't have any of my own) that I have spoken to. One of them is my stepbrother, though, and I know that he is a Christian. It is possible that what I say to them could contribute to them not believing. But this is not my goal. I stress independent thought.
Hmm, I do believe in truth alot and i really do believe that god is the truth and that this life isnt just a one time wham bam thank you ma'am.
But even if i were a hard aatheist i just could not tell litle children that they are going to die soon (life is short you know this death is just around the corner for us all)
It does make them sad and it makes you sad too, I really don't want to start preaching this is the Ethical philosophy section not the religion forum so i cannot talk as aloosely here as i have done in the dedicated forums to religion.
Read my thread on the quran and i can explain to you how this is the right way and the emotional proofs are there if not the scientific proofs, the emotional proof that we go need to believe in god and heaven or we are sad in our heaarts.
I don't think you are a bad person from how you have explained yourself. you genuinely understand it makes them sad and you are not in denial o this sadness. but what im trying to stress here is the absolutely negative impact this has on a child especialy a child who is in the "pure innocent" stage of his or her life.
Don't take any notice of my boasting that isn't my intention here espeicaly not towards the good people, it was simple a way for me to attract all the nnegative people into admitting they basicaly don't care about the happiness of children over their own personal hate for god and religion and even his messengers. I am a deciever i admit this i do lie to the enemy and i stand by these tricks of warfare and am not ashamed of using them either. just how the nice atheist guy/girl i think it was a she or a guy who is intouch with his emotions atleast. who would lie to save pain.
Because this is what it boils down to doens't it if you want to sacrifice your childrens happiness in this life for the sake of themf ollowing your footsteps into atheism and hate for god, not all atheists hate god some simply just think it is a fairy tale and those people usualy leave religion well alone and dust their hands with it.
But it is these militant atheist who claim it to be "fairy tale" then dedicate huge chunks of their one and only life on earth fighting against the god they claim doesnt even exist.
they are corrupted people with venom in their words, there is still hope for many of you tot urn back now and stop doing this to our children. i really do care about these kids any kid i don't care what kid any little child i want to protect them and comfort them and This is my motive and my agenda, this is why i know i can't lose this debate because I know my motives are pure and i know they are fueled by hatred for god where as im fueled by love for our children and love for god ofcourse.
Think about what is really important, especialy if you really think there is no heaven, that means you think you will never see them again when you die, so make the best of it on earth while you can. i don't believe in the thing im about to say and i in no way consider it truth and im not denying god but i will for a second go against my beliefs just to articulate and convey this message to you even though i don;t want to do it.
If this is really your only life, and we are all going to die and be forgotten when the universe or world ends one day anyway. whats the harm in telling them they are gong to heaven man, is it really such a bad thing to just let them die with peace of mind? to let them live without fear and worry?. i dont believe it is a lie and i believe that it is all real but even if you don't cant you see the beauty of it can't you see how it helps them cope? so what if it's a crutch so what if it's a secutity blanket it makes them happy and they are our children isnt comforting them and making them live in peace our job as elders?
even though im in my mid 20's im still an elder tot he little kid's i have a responsibility to bring them happiness and so do you and everyone else.
Peace be with you
