Hedging their bets, maybe? If God does exist, maybe he'll answer your prayers. See, I don't know if God exists. But when I'm sick, I sometimes say a prayer in the hopes that God will have pity on me and make me feel better.

Why do you think they still pray?

Wasn't much of the imagery of hell taken from Dante's Inferno?

It's okay. I like to hear different perspectives and opinions. :)

Grandson. But thanks all the same. :)

Thanks. It's my grandmother. She has a bad case of cellulitis. She's blind as well. So, staying at the hospital is very emotionally taxing on her. I'm staying with her overnight. Sigh. I tell ya, life is really something else.

When I can. Right now, I'm dealing with a family member's health issues.

I agree. No one can convince me, so I'm just going to have to read it myself and make a decision.

Where does the body fit into this? We exist in these bodies. The soul would have to exist within the body. But where is it?

I have no idea. I'm not even sure we have a soul. Have you ever seen someone die? I have. There was nothing supernatural about it. No soul leaving the body. No mysticism. There's just nothing. A person with a personality, hopes, dreams, etc, reduced to nothingness. You might think that the soul...

It seems like a rotten deal to me. Billions of people begore us have lived and died. They remain dead. It seems like there isn't much difference based on what one believes. Dead is dead, and this bodily resurrection seems to be... on hold.

Hmm... what about unsaved children that die? Is it the same for them? They just stay dead?

What about those that were cremated?

No, I haven't. I began with Genesis, but it didn't keep my attention.

So, not heaven then? I think many Christians think that they will go to heaven upon death.

I'm curious. Does it say who this man is?

Do you think it's right for non-Christians that are decent people to end up in hell? Or do you believe we go somewhere else?
