All of your advanced theology and "ground of being" mumbo jumbo is just you rationalizing your fear of your own mortality. Your death is coming, as is mine, and that of every living person on this average little planet. If there is an afterlife, which I highly doubt, it is not going to be a teacher's pet award doled out to the biggest ass kissers in the class.
Well, at least he doesn't have any sour grapes. There is obviously a level of anger here, I also detect a real fear of death on his part. Death doesn't bother me in the least. Atheists who think that religious people are afraid to die are really at wits end to explain why Christians die more bravely than they do. Read Fox's Book of Martyrs. But this gushing hatred toward people who feel they have hope? why this anger at the group that feels it's leader conquered death? It's because despite his protestations he's scared to death to die. He's probably more afraid that there is a God than that there is not one. He thinks that desire for after life is some form of reward seeking (he certainly seems out of joint over God's favor, but doesn't do much to curry it) this is shows a lack of understanding about the search for truth or knowledge of God.
Don't know about you, but I hate those suck ups!
How can one "suck up" when favor of God is unmerited? It's not based upon being good enough. God loves you right now. As much as you despise God this very moment God loves you that much and more. But how can he say "Ok I'll give in and let you have your way." Would that be right? Maybe your parents did that for you all the time, maybe that's the problem. But how could the king of the universe do it? Say screw what's right and good and screw holiness, little Rex wants to sin and doesn't wan to have to accept God's way, scrap heaven and have Rexland for after life where everyone get's to sin. That might sound group if you are a six year old child, as an adult I think you see some problems with it.
They only tell you what they think you want to hear and never a word about what they really think.
Actually I don't think you want to hear any of the things I've said so far, I just think they are true.
The deceased Pope John Paul II was well on his way to “Sancto subito!”, but OOPS! the "miracle" that he performed by curing a nun of her Parkinson's by laying his hands on her just went out the window, because she is now relapsing! That must be really embarrassing for Pope Nazinger! Now he has to drum up another "miracle" so that JP can have the required two, for sainthood, because after all, that is what the masses want. Maybe they could all get together and chant in Latin, and fondle little boys until one of them thinks of a way for them to get the egg off of their faces. It would have been so much more convenient if she had just died before the relapse, but I guess that "God" works in mysterious ways eh?
Are you really unable to comprehend the obvious hatred dripping off every word of that emotional and childish diatribe? What could possibly justify this sort of raw hate. How is it that when it appears so obviously, hateful, rude, insulting, no atheist can possible comprehend that that's what it is. you watch, comments will range from agreement to "I thought it was funny" No atheist will admit the nose of the face.
