    Well this thread has proven conclusively that atheists are just as closed minded as religious folk. I’ve never seen so many angry idiots argue for suicide.

    I’ll spell it out one more time for you dumbfucks and then I’m blocking all your asses.

    There is no scientific consensus on what happens to the consciousness after death. Period.

    It could just end. It could also mean that you lay there helplessly experiencing the absolute pain of every cell dying, rotting and being consumed as it decays.

    It could be that you find yourself trying to justify your sins to Anubis. It could be that you end up in Valhalla.

    We simply don’t know. And that makes the risk assessment of the action of suicide (as a relief from the pain of living) volatile to the point where the possible gain in pain relief isn’t worth the loss of your life.

    That’s it. That’s my entire argument. It’s not Christian, it’s not scientific. It’s fucking assessing a gambling risk. Grow up and get your collective heads out of your asses - the moral grandstanding because you "suspect’’ I might have a religious view is fucking idiotic and obnoxious - you’re no better than the Christians you think you’re preaching against.

      This is a memes forum. You’re making some very strong assumptions about the people here. Not a single person in this thread has identified themselves with a religion. This is still you projecting your beliefs on the world instead of listening to others.

      There is no scientific consensus on what happens to the consciousness after death. Period.

      This is not a scientific question. This is a metaphysical question.
