    For all Christians -From a Christian.

    Yes, that does justify respect, but not them simply creating you as you initially suggested. No. To be honest, I don't know why I live. But religion didn't fill that void. But what the Christian god says is believe in him - or suffer eternal damnation. I don't see much of a...

    Do You Have "Rights" After your Dead?

    That pretty much sums up my view. People also call self-ownership a natural right. I just leave it at self-ownership and nothing more. When you're alive, you control your body, so you say what goes. When you're dead, you don't.

    So there's no point in speculating, since god is above reason?

    For all Christians -From a Christian.

    If free will exists, then the proposed god isn't truly omnipotent. If it doesn't, then god really is omnipotent. What this would implicate is that not only did god destine me to disbelieve - but he will punish me for it!
