This is such a classic Protestant M.O.: scare you silly and then reward right answers with food - like you would treat a dog.A Christian student visited my dormitory recently, and he asked us: If you die an hour later, where do you think you'll go?...
And ends with giving everyone a tiny pack of cheap chocolate waffles...
First off I commend your courage! It comes to mind to me that Christians are non practicing Jews. Jesus himself was a Jew. I assume that when he taught he taught from the Jewish texts. He also corrected them where he felt they were lacking in understanding. Christian religion does not take into account what he studied, in my opinion. So they lack the TOTAL understanding of his love. Please hear ME! Jesus is all you need. The church will always be flawed. You only need him there is no reason for a discussion from a self proclaimed authority. There is zero reason for any church to exist. These psychological mind games must stop. You are not a sheep. Congratulations! Thinking for yourself is a lonely place. Keep the Faith and Love in your Heart....A Christian student visited my dormitory recently, and he asked us: If you die an hour later, where do you think you'll go?
Brought up by a Catholic family, I somehow just knew that my people believed that if people die, they are sent to stay in the purgatory to wait for 49 days to see if their families and loved ones would pray for them so that they can go to heaven. It sounds fishy and I know there are terms and conditions that may apply. I have tons of questions but eh I couldn't be bothered much because other humans like to twist words and there are so many versions of it too. I could read the Bible which I have been trying to for years but maybe I'll do it next year.
Anyway, yes I told him: Probably the purgatory, if God is real and what my Catholic people told me is real. Or probably- my soul, or consciousness, or whatever energy I'm left as, will evaporate from my body and just dissolve into nothing. Or I can stay and be a cool ghost who spies on everyone. I honestly prefer the latter.
He seemed a teeny wee bit appalled, and ignored my answers continuing to ask answers from everyone else with greater enthusiasm. I got a bit salty.
Ultimately he said: If you're unsure where you'll go as soon as you die then you're in trouble. Bla bla bla. You don't need to be nice, the Bible says John 3:16 *quotes it*. As long as you believe in Him, you'll go to heaven and have an eternal life. What part says here that people have to pray for you for 49 days so that you can go to heaven? What part says here that you can stay along and be a ghost? Read the verse, READ IT. See how the sentences are structured. NOW, IF YOU DIE AN HOUR LATER, WHERE WILL YOU END UP IN? *while looking at me*
Everyone else: Heaven.
And ends with giving everyone a tiny pack of cheap chocolate waffles. Not that I don't like all Christans. If ever, their speeches and preaches make more sense than any other religion or cults lol, but you don't gain respect from people by ridiculing what other people said just so you can make your case a little bit more impactful. Of course no one, not even me can say anything about this human being rude because he's the guy over there, who has control over the entire setting, has read all of the Bible. Then there's me on the cornermost.. corner, only knowing a few verses! Once arguments like this come to happen, he who reads the Bible more always wins because it always comes down on who can pull out the right verses to justify himself. Like a Yu-gi-oh game if you guys are familiar with that, except you know what card would you draw out from your deck next.
I don't hate anyone, maybe that guy a little bit but that's it. I've always been a salty player who picks up on people's hostile words/actions easily. I'm sure though, that every listener on that room, without any doubt, felt a bit uncomfy with how he acted towards me.
I looked at everyone as the guy kept muttering stuff ridiculing me. No one stood up for me.. it makes me sad. I'm the oddball among all the girls in the dorm, but I'm also the one who makes the most contribution, like tutoring everyone and making their art projects for them, fixing their computers and even lending them cash. I help all of them on a daily basis and no one remembers how nice I've been to them enough to defend me from this.. This hostile human.
So yeah that's it, people are jerks. I'm going to move to Pluto. Good luck getting rid of those impurities on your computer's biches. Jk ily all, but I won't help you guys anymore since you don't help me at all.
Rant over.
Actually I just wanted to ask you guys the question on the thread title, I think I got a bit carried away xD Thank you for reading, if you read it all the way down here.
I like to think that before we die we hallucinate and we get a vision and explanation of everything in our life and then it ends.A Christian student visited my dormitory recently, and he asked us: If you die an hour later, where do you think you'll go?

That guy was an ass and your fellow dorm girls are cowards. I'm sorry no one stood up for you, and instead chose to side with the ass. I think it's wonderful you're being so helpful and giving, and I want to caution you; if being helpful makes you feel good, then keep doing it for sure. But from what you write here it seems you don't feel appreciated, and that can easily lead to bitterness, resentment and.. well, that turns a person into an ass. Make sure you're getting back too.I looked at everyone as the guy kept muttering stuff ridiculing me. No one stood up for me.. it makes me sad.

This is an unanswerable question. What information could I possibly use to base an answer on? No one has ever come back from the dead! And even if they had, how can their testimonials be taken as trustworthy? There are so many ways to alter the state of consciousness in a living human being (meditation, drugs, cerebral hypoxia, etc), who knows what that the state of consciousness is supposed to look like in a dead one.A Christian student visited my dormitory recently, and he asked us: If you die an hour later, where do you think you'll go?

You're right. The Bible is an easy (and popular) choice, but this is true for just about any kind of source. This is exactly why knowing the arguments and sources of ones 'opponent' intimately is so important.OP, I liked what you said about arguments being won by people knowing the Bible better so they can manipulate it better in their argument. I've kind of sensed that before but never put my finger on it like you did. It's such a crappy way of behaving.

Compared to Jewish texts the Bible is pretty new. And was written hundreds of years after his death. The books were assembled and voted on wheather they are in it or not. A lot of people have used that book to kill others because they believed what was written there. In the name of God you kill and make justifications for it? Any argument made from the Bible assuming it's factual from the beginning is a false premise. And so you falsely go round judging others based on false doctrines. This bible may well be responsible for a lot of the human suffering that has been endured since it was put into print. All kinds of strange ideas and customs have come from the book. And peoples lives have been destroyed from the types of judgement that are contained on its pages. People can justify about anything from its texts. Just goes to prove that if enough people believe it it's true. That perception creates reality. It's us the humans that make the problems. And it is we that must un make those problems. Humans are lazy and would rather create a God to fix them rather than look at the real mess they are and then fix it. We have been doing this for centuries. It's time humankind admits it's faults and goes about fixing them. We don't need books to tell us we are wrong to steal or cheat on one another. We know when we are wrong we choose to ignore it when we are doing wrong. Man is weak. Won't fess up. God or no god it's the same man who s causing all the problems.I agree with you of course but I was more just wishing people would stfu and do good work instead of bickering all the time trying to one up each other. There is so much endless pointless quarreling out there, if it achieved as much as the time and effort that gets spent on it then there would probably be less cause for fighting anyway. But I do get why using sources correctly and not always in agreement is a valuable part of good argument form.
