A QUESTION
Question for the atheists...
Is it really true that you think we are just food for the worms?
SO is it ok for you, that when you die, your body will be thrown into a dump site?
Anyway, it don't possess a soul. We don't have to live for 'something', so our life ends at death, and we are 'nothing' after death. A picture would be enough as 'memory'.
Just curious.
Thank you. ;-).

Yet another Muslim troll.
Comes in, spouts something they think to be thought provoking, and then doesn't have the balls to post back when it's obvious that such a question has been considered in great depth by those of us without faith.
Pretty typical behavior from what I've seen.
Oh well.
And for the record, I'm a full organ and tissue donor. Full body to medicine in the hopes it might do somebody some good.
Sorta funny to me that it's the religious folks that are more concerned with what their god can put back together than they are with saving another human life.
Is your deity so weak that it can't resurrect you if your loved ones don't follow specific burial instructions?
"Oh crap! This guy is missing a liver. Now what do I do? ..oh.. it's no use. Without that liver, I just can't let him into heaven!"

going against the odds? what sort of evidence do you feel there exists that establishes that theism is with the odds whereas atheism is against the odds?

Isn't it those of the Jewish persuasion who are so adamant about making sure all of the recoverable tissues of the deceased are gathered together?

ahm.. sorry if i didn't post back as soon you want me to. i'm a student and currently taking a degree so you see im quite busy to log in and to read your answers. after posing this question, i just log in back today... hmmm... so, sorry for making you conclude that i 'freaked out'... =).
we burry people properly, obviously, as what science is telling us, dead human body is not good for our health, that's why in accordance with such science (as we interpret it), we burry it around 7 meters below the earth.. Also, we burry them properly in cemeteries to remind us how finite life is...

How do you prevent the bodies from becoming worm food? Or by being consumed by other life forms, like bacteria? I assume that you do something to somehow prevent this during your proper burial?

Hi JAM
I'm going to Harvard Medical School.
When I die, I will be a cadaver for medical students so thank me now if you ever visit a doctor when you're ill.
I'm sorry you carry such fear with you throughout your life that you are unable to face the fact that you will be dead and gone one day like the raccoon by the highway's edge.
Speaking for myself as an atheist, I am free from guilt for my enjoyment of this precious, on-shot life I am living. I stop and enjoy (and photograph ) the beautiful fall leaves. That's me in Paris by the Eiffle Tower last month.
I remember my dad and his passing last year and I take that moment to call my daughter, a friend to say I am glad I know you because...
I always wonder how a believer finds their way to this website. You're looking to get FREE aren't you JAM?

A British friend of mine once asked: "Why is it that your American Opossum comes to the side of the road to die?"
