"To know what you know and what you do not know, that is true knowledge." — Confucius

Nope. There would be safeguards in place to stop any abuse of the system. It would be the choice of the person involved, end of story.

There's a difference between being terminally ill and being terminally ill in agony with less than six months to live. Nobody has the right to deny someone the choice. I'm confident that with subtle amendments the bill will be passed next time in parliament.

What is ET short for? Because he's got little legs.

"Remember, when you are dead, you do not know you are dead. It is only painful for others. The same applies when you are stupid". Ricky Gervais

NDE's are not evidence for anything except NDE'S.

We have devices that are capable of recording sound in this day and age. Because we've recorded it, it's recorded and not independent.

No they're not. Paul put his own spin on what Jesus said for his own reasons and to grow the faith. We see it all the time with modern day bloggers. Paul invented the concept of eternal torture.

I've read it.

I don't think that Jesus' message has got across. Too much time passed after the crucifixion for a clear and accurate account to be documented. Mark? At least 30 years later. John? Anything up to 85 years later. And all the rest in-between. I think that the single most significant event known...

And what do you think? Corinthians is hard going when you've listened to Jesus, don't you think?

I've told you countless times that I think that Jesus was a good man.... Paul not so much.

I've read the Bible and I think that Jesus will be bitterly disappointed with you.
