The idea of immortality seems suffocating to me. I would most definitely not take it. If you were to give me an extra 100 years, I would definitely take it. Only if I age at a slower rate. I wouldn't want an extra 100 years in a retirement home.

If you would have read the whole post you would have noticed he answered your question. Because ignorance about a subject creates problems. If kids grow up being told that these people are no different from them, they won't ridicule them.

The value of currency depends only on the amount of money they have in circulation. It's basic supply and demand. The more there is of something, the less valuable it becomes. Likewise, if something is rare and high in demand, the value will go up. If there is more currency in circulation, it...

Oops. Double post. Sorry.

Money is what we use to measure the economic value of something. Essentially, when you have money, the government owes you the amount that it's worth in goods or services. Money is the government's property. It builds a stable economy. The value of money changes depending on many variables...

He's a good guy. He wants to help the country. HE JUST CAN'T GET ANYTHING DONE! As a guy, he's pretty decent, but as a president he's not so great. He should be able to get laws passed and gitmo shut down and pull us out of Iraq, but he's just not getting anything done. He promised us change...

Urban dictionary isn't a credible source of information. Argument from popularity would apply to their definition. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argumentum_ad_populum

No you don't get it. DMT rushes into your brain just before you die. You trip. As it starts to wear off, you die. Nothing happens while you're dead. You can't feel this time going by, so you don't know that it has. It feels like it has because of Time Dilation. Then the Doctors revive you and it...

That could easily be explained by the chemical wearing off or starting to subside. When you do a drug, you don't get high for a while and then instantly come down from that high. It's a gradual process. Yes, the chemical doesn't change, but what it's being applied to does. Not every human...

How can you tell when you have the vision? If you are dead, you have no conscience. It's much like sleeping. You aren't aware of the time going by. If they got brain activity after they were dead, that would be a different story, but there are no instances of this happening. There is a phenomena...

That doesn't matter. He is still eligible to be president and that's what this thread is about. You aren't required to show your birth certificate to become president, you just have to have been born in the United States. Whether or not he can produce an actual birth certificate is completely...

I was showing how your reasoning behind why it might be they key to the afterlife is wrong. If your reasoning is wrong then the answer to your question would be no, it's not the key to the afterlife because we don't know if there is an afterlife. The people who have near death experiences and...

Wow. That's really good. So much better than the crap we hear on the radio now. We need more artists, less businessmen.

That's true. I voted Atheist though because I'm closer to Atheist than Agnostic. I know you can't disprove or prove the existence of a god, but the odds odds suggest that there probably isn't one. Agnosticism to me means that you're just as likely to believe in a god as you are not to, and...

1. DMT causes hallucinations and dreams 2. Massive amounts of DMT are released when you die 3. DMT is the gateway to the afterlife Faulty logic with no proof to back your conclusion up. You first must prove the afterlife exists before you can claim that DMT is the gateway to it...
