No chance, I say.

I haven't seen any scrap of evidence to say that there's an afterlife, and before someone jumps on my back; a picture of a dishcloth looking like your dead Granddad's face doesn't count. Nor does objects falling off your shelves or it mysteriously getting cold as you enter a cellar. :p

Seriously though, does anyone believe we can prove it? I'm not asking if it does or does not exist, I believe we won't know until we die ourselves, but I'm asking your opinions on if it's scientifically possible to prove an afterlife?
 
how about messages from the dead?

Impossible. And there's a reason it's impossible - there's no such thing!

Last night I watched a C4 documentary about some religious nutters in America that go around calling everyone "fags" even if they're referring to the army for example. They picket military funerals and stuff, and generally hate "anti-god stuff such" as abortions, contraception and sex out of wedlock. One of the women with the biggest mouth was confronted late in the piece about whether or not her own son was legitimate, and it turns out the stupid bint had a son out of marriage but was going around harassing people that were in the same situation as her.

I officially can't stand religion and anything hocus-pocus that goes against science :(

I would think most people who believed in an afterlife would also believe it's impossible to know of it until after you die, so not really an impressive offer.
 
It aint impossible lol


none of us remotely understand what's going on, we simply aren't smart enough as a species (yet) to comprehend anything that's a bit extraordinary... jesus, people who catagorically claim there can't be an afterlife are bloody idiots, it's like me saying there's no chance Rotherham United can win the premiership within 4 years, there's always a chance.


I think of it two ways, when we die, we either have enough energy in the brain to sustain a dream/knightmare for an indefinate period of time (heaven/hell).

Or, we evolve to the next state of human existance, in a form that none of us can understand (or communicate with)


I just can't see us dying, simply cause I can't comprehend nothingness (but then again, like I said earlier, we aint smart enuogh to understand it). I dont think there was a time we were never, not alive....

ie, before we were born, we still existed in some form

anyway, we'll never understand this, thats just the way it is

No, it's nothing like that.

That's just unexplainable BS, purified. What's the possible scientific basis for you claiming residual energy causing eternal dreams in the brain? At least science has backup.

This goes beyond "a bit extraordinary" wiseguy. This is fruitloop wacko territory.

The difference between you and someone sensible is unsustainable, unprovable, unsubstantiated statements like this.

No offence pal, but I reckon you can't comprehend much at all let alone nothing.

Nope, its all a load of rubbish as Im sure somebody would have proved it by now if the afterlife did exist.

Unless we lack the scientific resources to prove it. Or are you stating that science has always been at the same standard and never progresses?

Everything you see hear and feel is a result of physical chemical reactions. We are organic and will rot to dust when we die, nothing more. Deal with it.

Quick to dish out the insults but not back them up in anyway i see RobbieG

He dealt the first insult by calling me an idiot :confused: Or didn't you read that bit?

You say I haven't backed it up, but which point of view has more documentary evidence behind it - the science crowd or the "I believe in life after death" crowd. :rolleyes:
 
but if it didn't exist then why can't that be proven, that there 100 isn't an afterlife?

May have to make a web page offering a million for it....
