R&S died when Theland did. I miss him.
Unfortunately, that's the nature of reality.
We all cease to exist at some point,
Plant, animal or human. We all die and cease to exist!
(Why humans believe that we don't is a mystery to me)

BUT, To believers in eternal life,
Just what was the point of planting a tree of eternal life in
the Garden of Eden?
I really would like to know?

Its the lesser know tree. (After the tree of knowledge of good and evil)
How often would Adam & Eve have to partake of it?
Would they have died anyway if they refused to have eaten?
After they were expelled from the Garden of Eden, was it still there?

And what happened to the Angel who guarded the Garden of Eden with a Fiery sword
Was he drowned in Noahs flood, along with the magical tree of life?

And why is there no mention of a such a magical tree in heaven
(Book of Revelation for example)
Do we not have a choice to live forever once we are dead by eating from a tree of life?

Its almost as if its ALL orchestrated by God and we don't have a say.
(Calvinism)

Or its a load of @&%£$)%%

Question Author
//People like you are not believers in any faith. That's fine in my book//
But it wasnt fine in your book was it?
Your Catholic faith killed millions of people...
Witch burnings, religious wars against protestants, etc.
I could go on....

Personally, only seeking the truth....
Question Author
//Try leaving your obsession alone//
You flatter yourself...
I have no obsession.

if asking questions is an obsession then I must be Bamber Bloody Gascoigne.

Try leaving your self righteous attitude alone for a while.
See if that works!
nailit: How many people did athiests slaughter? (Ghengis Khan, Stalin, Hitler, Pol Pot). It's a very immature conversation.
Question Author
//How many people did athiests slaughter?//

Nowhere near enough as the Catholic Church has slaughtered.
You talk about love and then compare how many lives have been lost.
Are you for real?
Any chance we could revisit the 'piles' stuff? This is getting seriously tedious.
Question Author
//Any chance we could revisit the 'piles' stuff?//
Carry on.
Provide a link...
Must be much more interesting to discuss my piles than the thousands of people that the Catholic Church has put to death over the centuries?
I suppose the common thread is the bloody end they met.
Hitler wasn't an atheist. most historians can't agree what he was but think pantheism comes closest. Why would an atheist allow his nazi military to have Gott mit uns on their belt buckles?
Nailit's late night drunken appearance once again, you really are a bore, get help man! You are not only lying to us, but to yourself as well. You don't really comprehend the scope of Alan Watts, and you lie about what you know & have read; basically you are full of hate and s-h*i/t.

You haven't really read William James's Gifford lectures, as you have said you have, isn't that a fact?

Please, - give us a break.

Paigntonian, the people you mention didn’t do what they did in the name of atheism.
THAT is the difference.
Question Author
//Nailit's late night drunken appearance once again//
Really??
Are you also now a soothsayer of some sort?
You can tell if someone has imbibed certain substances?

//You are not only lying to us, but to yourself as well//
I'm open to suggestions. Where Have I lied?

//You don't really comprehend the scope of Alan Watts, and you lie about what you know & have read; basically you are full of hate and s-h*i/t. //
If I had posted that ^ I think that I may have had my post removed.

Nevertheless, FYI I have spent years listening to what Alan Watts says.
And I disagree with a lot of what he says.
Having said that I would not accuse his followers of been full of s-h*i/t. and accusing his followers of been liers unlike yourself who seem so full of hatred for anyone who disagrees with you...

Its frankly laughable.
Alan Watts advocates love and tolerance but his followers dont seem able to grasp that concept.
(A bit like other followers of other gurus)
