“Ask a nurse about watching an unbeliever die, there are some horrific accounts of famous atheists screaming about the fire and burning, during the last hours of their lives.”
Yeaaaaaaaaaaaah, that’s not dead people reporting on the afterlife, though.
That’s frightened people in this life having a fantasy.
Seriously, if God wanted to give us a preview of the afterlife, why not do it a week before death, so we have a chance to get our affairs in order? And convert, baptized in the right church, or whatever?
If you wait until the deathbed, that’s just as bad as not getting any proof until after death.
“I don't believe this is a desirable way to die,”
How many ways to die to you think are desirable?
I mean, death by snu-snu is possible, but not too many others.
“even if there was no afterlife as you suppose.”
Weird, then, that it’s unbelievers who have these visions, and not believers who are just in the wrong religion. I mean, imagine if everyone screamed about the fire, except dying Mormons? Or dying TechnoBaptists?
“Doing the right thing and looking out for your neighbour is a lifestyle most people adapt anyway, so why is it such a stretch to worship God as Creator?”
Okay, so, last month, I found a birthday card in the street by our mailbox. I picked it up, wondering if there was any money in it. I could use $5 or whatever, if there was no way to track down the actual owner.
But what was inside was $100 cash. Luckily my wife recognized one of the names and I went to a neighbor’s house and asked if they had lost anything recently. They identified the card and I gave them back their money. That’s looking out for neighbors.
If the card had been addressed to The Lord God, I’d have kept the money. I have no such neighbor.
