My dog died last year. My Grandmother soon after had brain cancer. Then, a couple days ago, one of my best friends caught phenomena. Today, my Grandma and my friend passed away. At this point, I can’t even cry, because I can’t fully process that they’re gone. I feel like I can’t experience much more than grief sometimes, as it’s just hard to mentally process.

[Intro] Cheer up Brian, you know what they say? Some things in life are bad They can really make you mad Other things just make you swear and curse When you're chewing on life's gristle Don't grumble, give a whistle And this'll help things turn out for the best And... [Chorus] Always look on the bright side of life (Whistle) Always look on the light side of life (Whistle) [Verse 1] If life seems jolly rotten There's something you've forgotten And that's to laugh and smile and dance and sing When you're feeling in the dumps Don't be silly, chumps Just purse your lips and whistle - that's the thing And... [Chorus] Always look on the bright side of life (Whistle) (Come on!) Always look on the right side of life (Whistle) [Verse 2] For life is quite absurd And death's the final word You must always face the curtain with a bow Forget about your sin Give the audience a grin Enjoy it - it's your last chance anyhow [Chorus] So always look on the bright side of death (Whistle) A-Just before you draw your terminal breath (Whistle) [Verse 3] Life's a piece of shit (Oooh) When you look at it Life's a laugh and death's the joke, it's true (Oooh) You'll see it's all a show (Oooh) Keep 'em laughin' as you go Just remember that the last laugh is on you (Oooh) And... [Chorus] Always look on the bright side of life (Whistle) Always look on the right side of life (Whistle) (C'mon Brian, cheer up!) [Outro] Always look on the bright side of life (Whistle) Always look on the bright side of life (Whistle) (Worse things happen at sea, you know?) Always look on the bright side of life (Whistle) (What have you got to lose? You know, you come from nothing You're going back to nothing What have you lost? Nothing!) Always look on the bright side of life (Whistle) (Nothing will come from nothing You know what they say?) Always look on the bright side of life (Cheer up, ya old bugger C'mon, give us a grin! There y'are, see?) (Whistle) (It's the end of the film) (Incidentally, this record is available in the foyer) Always look on the bright side of life (Some of us got to live as well, you know?) (Whistle) (All right, that's the lot, let's get this place knocked down The whole show's dismantled in three weeks Who do you think pays for all this rubbish?) Always look on the bright side of life (They'll never make their money back, you know I told 'im, I said to 'im, "Bernie," I said, "they'll never make their money back.") (Whistle) Always look on the bright side of life

[@lawbringerno1fan836]

@Timothy Mostad and how do you know that heaven isn't real? Not that Im religious or anything but you cant just make assumptions with no evidence. Evidence of absence? It can be used for either side.

[@lawbringerno1fan836]

@Timothy Mostad My point is not that was is said in the bible is what happened. Just because they say "God" or "Allah" exists doesn't mean that they do. Im saying that just because we cant see or detect a higher being that may have been around for 13.8 billion years. They might not even care about us, they might have just created the universe and let it do what it wants to do. We could be living in a simulation and everything you know could have just been programmed into you, the universe could have been made to look the way it does as to give the illusion of age. Maybe none of that is true and there is no higher being or maybe theirs a different sort of higher being. You have nothing to prove that there is or isn't a higher being/realm and religious people have nothing that says there is a higher being/realm. We can only have a chance of finding out by continuing to go deeper and maybe we'll find an answer. You cannot assume anything in this case, evidence of absence is a stupid rule and should not have been created because creates an implies bias towards one side of an argument and bias is not good for results.

[@lawbringerno1fan836]

@Timothy Mostad You make claims but with 0 evidence. You say that we created the gods but you dont know that, you have 0 evidence to prove your point. You dont know if we have a soul or not (I personally believe that we dont but theirs no way to prove it). There is actually a lot bias in what you say because you are going off the assumptions of your own opinions and things that you believe. To fully understand and argue about this subject you must throw away every single assumption. It has actually been proven that a lot of things in the bible have happened. It is true that Jesus existed, not that he necessarily did what happened in the bible but he did exist. A lot of the artefacts mentioned in the bible have been found and proven not be fakes. Please define "outdated" for me in these terms as religion cannot be outdated. It fits in every time period to those who have faith in religions. This is evidence of your bias towards your opinions because it says that you make the assumptions off of your own opinion of religion. Im not religious but nor am I stupid like you. Making assumptions especially based off of your own opinions is the most stupid thing you can do when trying to argue. Stop being an idiot or go argue with people who just as bias as you.

[@lawbringerno1fan836]

@Timothy Mostad SEE LOOK AT YOU MAKING ASSUMPTIONS! So, how do you know that a higher being didn't create evolution? You are basing your entire point off of what is said in the bible which still may not be true which is why you cannot have assumptions. You don't recognise any other well known religions judging by what is said in your arguments. It isn't even the bible that says this, it is the interpretations of creationists. When you said "I dont force anybody to think for themselves" are you implying that religions do and/or that you have some kind of power? Obviously its irrational to be afraid of learning, but that depends on what you define as irrational as most people who are bias towards there own opinions typically refuse to learn about the other side of the argument or even embrace it to have a greater understanding. You have 0 evidence towards their being no higher being under any circumstances even that of the unknown. If you want to talk about normal then heres something for you. 87% of Australians a faith or belief (a higher power) therefore making atheism abnormal in Australia which in terms of percentages is similar to other western/1st world nations, you abnormal piece of shit. Back to my other point about not knowing if the soul exists. You mentioned that Jesus cannot save souls but that is under the assumption that souls do not exist which you have "thought up" because you cant see them, thats why flat earthers think the earth is flat. They cant see the horizon therefore FLAT. Obviously the Earth is not flat and we have evidence to prove this. We have proven for sure due to our advancements in technology and we need to advance further because that is the only chance we will have of discovering the truth or the falsity of religion and the soul. This is an incredibly difficult argument to have because religion is a man made structure but also because we are referring to different entities when we talk about a higher power or faith, I am referring to any possibility of one where as you seem to be mainly in reference to the beliefs of creationists which btw are a very small but loud percentage of the Christians.

[@ThatBugBehindYou]

Timothy Mostad >nobody knows why the universe began >it was not on purpose Lol, you realize how stupid that is right? Until science has a complete understanding of how the universe was created you literally can't make a substantial argument for or against God.
