    Well, I'm a bit peeved at Muslims over their idea of heaven for a martyr. It seems that male martyrs get 77 virgins to please them round the clock.

    So, as a woman, would I get 77 Chippendale dancers ?

    Who knows how those virgins look like... perhaps there is a reason why they are still virgins.

    You’re kidding, right? If forced to choose between eternal bliss or eternal suffering, any sane person would choose the former. What’s the point of even asking?

    Of course, that would be "paradise", but I don't think I deserve an eternal rest. It doesn't sound logical that I would vanish just because this body vanishes, as if I would only be a body. Rather the body is an instrument which I use.

    NOTE: the very idea of an 'eternal bliss' or 'eternal suffering' very much reveals the naive thinking of the patriarcal splitters of polar-related reality

    just speend 2 minuites trying to imagine eternal bliss, and eternal suffering. can you envisage it?....how can you KNOW bliss lessen you KNOW bliss, how can you KNOw pleasure lessne you know pain?

    so their very idea of some heaven and hell that is everlasting is compltely foolish

    meant to read "how can you know bliss lessen you know suffering"?

    it would just be death, theres no paradise, your conscience ends when you body does there no here after, it is'nt logical, no it's laughable that you actually think you would be anything else but dead.

    Hah. Once I thought so too. Never have I seen consciousness end or come into being. Rather, the body has made contact with it.

    I'd just like to let you know that in hell, according to the bible, one is alone in darkness forever. There is gnashing of teeth. It is neverending torture and sorrow that cannot be comforted. Can you imagine feeling hopeless and being ALONE in darkness FOREVER? Also, in Heaven there is work. You don't just sit on a cloud all day. There is no sadness whatsoever. I choose heaven

    I think hell is something you create for yourself through negativism. Seems to me that I'm already in heaven.

    But apparently there's also burning forever. Need I mention that fire kind of negates the possibility of darkness?

    I'd rather be in hell free from slavery, than in heaven forced to worship some arsehole.

    You would be lucky to get me, heathen!

    Hey, I'm not a virgin, I know the basics, and I'm potty trained. What more could you ask for?

    (Besides, I dance a mean cha-cha-cha.)

    Hell, please.
    Heaven is full of god-bothering self righteous idiots. Hell is the alleged residence of all the great non-christian thinkers, Plato, Socrates, Ghandi, Lao Tzu, Buddha, , etc...

    Level 1 - Limbo

    Charon ushers you across the river Acheron, and you find yourself upon the brink of grief's abysmal valley. You are in Limbo, a place of sorrow without torment. You encounter a seven-walled castle, and within those walls you find rolling fresh meadows illuminated by the light of reason, whereabout many shades dwell. These are the virtuous pagans, the great philosophers and authors, unbaptised children, and others unfit to enter the kingdom of heaven. You share company with Caesar, Homer, Virgil, Socrates, and Aristotle. There is no punishment here, and the atmosphere is peaceful, yet sad.
