Chest pains, ambulance arrives takes you to the hospital.
Rush to the table, Drs. try everything but to no avail.
You can hear them say, to late. There is nothing more we can do.

Long pause then you pass to Heaven.

What would be the first thing you would say or even sing.

A few suggestions in the event you may need them.

"Amen" - Gospel Christmas - YouTube

Celtic Woman - Amazing Grace - YouTube

Amazing Grace - Rhema 7yr old Gospel singer plz "Share" - YouTube

Dolly Parton - Go Tell It On The Mountain (Xmas Special) - YouTube

Yep - Goober told me to hedge my bets.

Say? Ah, Guess I was wrong. Some actual evidence would have been useful.


Sing? Nothing. No way in Hell (literally, if necessary). With the right evidence I could believe in the existence of a god. I doubt that I could ever be convinced to worship it though.

I am sure you would sing well in Heaven.

We can dance if we want to. We can leave your friends behind. Cause your friends don't dance and if they don't dance ,well, they're no friends of mine.

My sentiments exactly, though depending on my mood when I get there I might be moved to register a complaint about demanding belief on the basis of bad evidence. I might want to make a few rude remarks about mosquitoes too.

Well you do not have to go to heaven for a solution for mosquito's around your house / yard/ deck.
I use this and it works well.
Non toxic- Odor is gone in 1/2 hr or so - and it is not strong.


Mosquito Repellent | Insect Repellent | Natural Mosquito Control by Mosquito Barrier

If you cannot purchase locally then order thru Upper Canada Organics.

Upper Canada Organic Products

Now as to the complaint about evidence. Sorry not my department but I will forward to Head Office to see if they reply.
They are rather busy and it is sometimes difficult to see that they indeed have replied. So keep your eyes open.

That's pretty poor marketing, if they really want to sell the service they should be acutely sensitive and responsive to customer inquiries.

I think the marketing is excellent- Billions of customers and an expanding base.

So are you going to try the mosquito repellent?

Start 'em young enough and most people will believe whatever parental authority lays on them. That's not marketing, that's brainwashing.

In the context of this thread's topic, I'm less interested in repelling mosquitoes from my yard than I am in asking that supposedly benevolent deity why he allowed the little %$#@$*& to exist at all. But sure, I'll try the repellent.

Then you do not believe in the innate human ability to forgive. Regardless of religious belief on no religious belief.
Do you think that only people with a religious belief can forgive?

why would he think that when he holds no religious belief, from his level and measured responses on this forum he is very forgiving

Religious belief does not dictate whether a person will or will not forgive.

As I have stated before, I am not an atheist, but if I was confronted with the biblical god, I would kick him in the balls, then kick him again when he hit the floor.

No. You would kick your interpretation of the Biblical God in the balls.

No. I look at what has been done in his name and that he has sanctioned or allowed and condemn him to the boot. But then I know that will never happen, as it doesn't exist. It is a fabrication. Everybody has their own interpretation of what god is. Mine would never tolerate the crap that has been done in the name of the war god of the desert.
