It's about the afterlife. (although some Christians as well as some jews seem to make nothing of it, which begs the question, what is their ultimate purpose?)

It's about the afterlife.
Define your concept of "afterlife", then please prove such a thing exists.
One note though - you can't use passages or quotes from any kind of "religious text" as your proof.
The Qur'an is a miracle.
People determine their ultimate purpose for themselves.
It's that too.No, it's a book.
The Qur'an is a miracle.
It's that too.
Very good, @Zyzygy — you might just pass the course.
You'll never answer even a simple question coherently will you?
You'd rather deflect with nonsense.
Again, a cowardly approach to debate.

You made this statement.
How the hell are we supposed to discuss anything regarding that statement if you won't tell me anything at all about this "afterlife" you speak of?
Are there 72 virgins there?
When all you do is post this:
You basically state you refuse to even discuss the very thing you brought to the table.
Perhaps Valery does not realize ___________ .
Perhaps a hint of Taoism in that post? :mrgreen:
Probably not - but none the less, I completely agree.
What little I ever knew of Taoism I have long since forgotten.
“At the center of your being
you have the answer;
you know who you are
and you know what you want.”
It's been posted numerous times around here from some theists.
"There would be no purpose/meaning to life if there was no god."
What purpose/meaning is there with a god?
What would you lose if you found out there wasn't a god?
What's that "purpose/meaning" you speak of if you utter that phrase?
If god is responsible for your purpose/meaning, what is it exactly that god is responsible for?
Or, what do you suppose the atheist is missing out on because they don't have that "purpose/meaning"?
I have never seen that claim made.
Actually that was not what my thread was about. :roll: You're just triggered too easily. :shrug:It's been made numerous times, including just the other day. It's why this thread exists.
Pretty sure it was Valery who posted it most recently.
Believe me. It's been posted more than once.
