    Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.

      I believe God doesn't exist! It is as valid as other people's belief in Sky Fairies.

      It is possible a 'God' does exist but its publicity firm on Earth has just got it wrong.

          I'll tell you what, when we're both dead, let's meet up and compare who is right or wrong
          In infinity you're likely to meet an infinite number of times, not something to look forward to.

            I guess if you want to believe in the afterlife in some paradise, my view may feel grim. But, to me it's just realism. Death is the end, so best make the most of your short time on this little rock.

            50 at next birthday, so still young. Not sure walking football is for me - I was always the slightly psychotic centre half who like to fly in with slide tackles ... not sure they'd appreciate that in walking football

            You're still not quite getting this are you? When I'm dead I won't have the capacity to give two flying about charities or anything else, so why would I feel the need for them to raise money when I'm gone? If I was so inclined, I'd be doing some charity work now whilst I'm alive.

            Death doesn't bother me. Dying in pain is not to be looked forward to, but the actual death side is a 'meh' moment, because (and you really need to understand this) once you're dead you won't know about it.

            I'd rather look forward to life, and making the most of my time here than 'looking forward to death'
            I am what I drink, and I'm a bitter man

              Luckily we are not aware of any of the other infinity universes.

              Assuming inflation theory is correct, in theory if you could travel far enough, there would be a universe identical to our own.

              The thing about God is that if he did not exist, he would have to be invented. Or if you are Arianna, she would have to be invented.

                If you stay in heaven for infinity you don't need an infinite amount of universes to meet each other infinity times. On the other hand, there is the second law of thermodynamics which would make it impossible

                  Do you mean psychopathic as in you have no empathy and don't care if you hurt people?

                  Psychotic is delusional, hallucinating, paranoia and the like. For example, I'm paranoid that the moderators are reading all my posts and I have anti-psychotic medication for these kind of situations.

                  Anway, my point is if you were psychotic and delusional then you'd probably believe in God so I think you mean you're psychopathic. The moderators are watching the wrong person.
