if we cease to exist, then the life we lead now is meaningless and moot

Why is it meaningless? It\'s what you do on Earth now that matters: who you choose to love, who you choose to live with, what you do, what dreams you live etc. I just plan on making my (hopefully) ~80 years something to remember when I\'m an old man.

Yes. :)

As I said, personally I don\'t have a problem with this approach so to speak. But if people choose to believe something else that\'s fine with me. I can\'t decide what works best for other people.

My theory on the Ark (although I don\'t believe in Noah or the ark):

There was a flood. Not a big flood, just in one region. Noah gathered all the animals there and set sail. I find Noah\'s ark to be false because first off, there are billions of species of animals. Can\'t put them all in a boat you build in whatever days noah did it in. Secondly, I don\'t believe in it because there wouldn\'t be enough genetic diversity for the species of animals. Certain viruses embed their DNA within a living being\'s DNA (AIDS) and then they destroy their host cells. That would wipe out a species of animals. That\'s why saving a species by breeding in captivity is not good. The species will eventually have some sort of disease and because they have similar DNA, they would get wiped out.

Lately I\'ve been in a slump at this subject.  I keep going in a cycle where I don\'t believe in god, and then I do.  Mostly because I do think there is an afterlife, but I don\'t think there is a god like the christian/muslim/jewish god.  

I know it sounds gay but Hinduism, Buddhism, and Doaism sorta have the same views I do.  So I\'m thinking of joining one of those religions, but I dont know what my family is gonna think.

Vivi my suggestion is to not mention it to your parents yet.  My mom went off on me because I questioned my belief in god.  She went on to say I was going to hell and everything like that.

The thing is, the same(or similar) flood story exists in countless other religions. Religions that have no contact with one another.

BTW, Billions of species seems way off to me.

Billions, millions, same thing(well billions if you count all the species of bugs).

I can\'t tell my mom I don\'t believe in God. She\'s pretty religious. Only two people know I don\'t believe in God and I hope they don\'t spread it around.

Vivi, Buddhism is a philosophy, not a religion.  It follows the teachings of Buddha who found enlightenment and is only looked upon as an example for any individual who seeks enlightenment too.


My theory on the Noah story...it\'s just a story to tell people.  You know how children\'s books have morals to be taught?  That\'s the same thing with Noah and the flood.  It\'s a story to be told to believers of God showing a good example of faith and belief.  Who cares if the ark can be built or not.  It\'s a story for people to look at for guidance.

Not true, parents are harsh and he probably just doesn\'t want to hear it from them every day.
