Take a man in his 80’s thinks: ‘My life is nearly over. It’s gone so fast. So little is left. Where did it all go? What did it mean? It’s all behind, nothing’s ahead. Except the grave. Yes oblivion. How pointless it all was! No wonder the cynic says, “Eat, drink and be merry, for tomorrow we die.

‘Well, I lived a full life, you may say. Supposedly this means death is now acceptable. But does a full life that is past make dying easier to accept? Or does it make it harder? Would it not be easier to leave an empty life than a full one? No one says, “I’m so happy I’m going to kill myself!

Lack of Bible knowledge DOES cause a person to think their life span is not long enough...to do all the things they would like to. And especially so if theirs or others life is cut short due to illness or accident. Jehovah's promises solve all these...promising an end to death that now we all experience...and for those who die, they are given a second chance......

/The present Pope is the direct successor of St Peter/ on whose authority?

sandyRoe

That's what I've been led to believe. You're not saying that I, and the countless millions of believers throughout the generations, have been misguided?

jomifl

Sandy, I couldn't possibly say that believers are deluded fools led by charlatans .....but my thoughts are leaning that way. Given the evidence or lack of it for the existence of any kind of deity, what other conclusion would you suggest?

^^ That's a good question. Why don't you post it in its own right? This place could do with livening up! ;o)

They don't even agree with each other, sandy. Let alone with common sense.

Pixie, we all know, well at least we of the Catholic faith, that the Pope is infallible when it comes to matters doctrinal. The people who don't agree with him are poor benighted fools at best, or self serving chancers.

pixie373

I see. Thanks for putting me straight ;-) x

naomi24

^You self-serving chancer you. ;o)

sandyRoe

It won't be me that puts you straight. You'll some day sense that there's a great void in your life and then you'll go straight to religion.
Oh happy day!

Lol. I think Naomi knows me better! :-)
