Well, since the soul has weight and exists (not very accurate but somewhat true), we can't be sure of anything that occurs post mortem, for all we know it could just turn into anti-matter causing afterlife to be an ethereal prison of sorts:P Personally, I like to think that once dead, it's the end of everything, that nothing exists post-mortem, despite what religion likes to claim. If afterlife really existed, we'd have at least valid hints towards it's existence that aren't only present in religion. To sum up, once you die, nothing happens, black emptiness for all eternity at best, black emptiness for all eternity while you are conscious of it at worst:P
The page you linked even mentions the flaws of the experiment, that's not a sound theory in the least

Hell no, and it's a good thing too!
Good lord, i sure wish it's not there, seeing everyone that i knew helped make life a living hell again, no way! if there's heaven there would've been heaven all good people should be absolutely be able to agree on the following list of things:

* Favorite type of flowers.
* Favorite colour of flowers.
* Language of writing.
* Language of speech.
* Favorite style of building.
* Favorite style of art.
* Favorite game to play.
* Favorite movie to watch.
* Favorite sport to play.
* Favorite sport to watch.
* Favorite colour in general.
* Favorite style of dressing.
* Favorite book to read.
* Favorite comic books.
* Favorite cartoon to watch.
* What would be the true god.
* How to honour that one god.
* Sing the same songs.
* Like the same songs.
* Accept a god to be so hatefull that he wants all his people to be axcactly the same in mind though he knows he did not give them all the same mind to work with.
* Accept a god to not give a fuck for personal pain.
* accept that god create all creatures, but comes to accept only the few that be beyond perfect, above beying obedient, loving, helping, never taking anything not meant for you, never hurting another creature, beying loyal, you have also withouth any devine help got to go to the perfect religion club, following the perfect path and withouth any devine help being able to see right from wrong.

A god by any means has to be devine, perfect and caring for his people, but in each religion there are just as much people in percentage dying, with just as much pain.

* Why if a god would be devine would he/she not being able to tell or show what's the real religion.
* Why if a god would be devine would he/she not give a fuck about all his creation.
* Why if a god would be devine would he/she not would he let such a great part suffer immense pain.

The only thing relegion brought throughout time is hate towards each other becase of:

* Anothers idea of god.
* Anothers orientation in love.
* Anothers way of expressing his love towards hes or her god.
* Anothers way of showing love to another.
* Anothers way of dealing with pain.
* Anothers way of making art.
* Anothers way of decorating his house.
* Anothers way of celebrating his life.
* Anothers way of cooking dinner.
* Anothers way of behaving around other people.

But hey the Lords book says he or she does it out of love toward us all, so that should mean something? just saying it's love isn't gonna change anything.

The only good thing i can think of for relegion is for kids, it is reasuring them that there's someone for them to turn to when life's difficult, when there's death or pain.

OK, what I'm going to say here will sound fucked up, but bear with me.

This is intended for people who believe in Heaven. And by Heaven, I mean a perfect afterlife, similar to the one promised by Christianity.

When your friends or relatives die, why are you sad? They are at a place that's objectively better than this world. You should be happy for them.

I don't believe in an afterlife. We are just a bunch of atoms that are arranged in a very precise, specific way that gives us the perception of life. Everything that happens is a physical interaction. Whether it be a thought, a feeling, a sense, anything, it's all just chemicals interacting in your brain. Once they are unable to do this anymore, it's over. You will never see anything, you will never know you lived, nothing that ever happened will matter.

Nothing arranges itself in a precise manner without an intelligence guiding it. There's a God and there's an afterlife and where you end up is entirely up to you.

Mind telling me what intelligence arranged the God you are talking about?

We're not rational beings. We're sad because, while yes they're in a better place, they're not with us anymore what's sad is where they aren't not where they are.



but it goes against basic science in every way possible

What...?

Well... (Alright, what I'm going to say now is VERY FUCKED UP. Keep in mind I am not telling you to do that, I'm just pointing out where that threat of logic leads.)

What's stopping you from just... you know... going to that better place too?
