Will you still be an atheist on your death bed?

Question

Will you still be an atheist on your death bed?

Answer 1

Yes

Answer 2

I'm not gonna touch this one.

Answer 3

Well, I'll be agnostic.

Life is about the journey, not the destination.

Answer 4

Agnostic. So you think I'm going to have time to die, and room for ministers of my former Christian heritage to come up and prepare me for the afterlife?

What if I die alone, in a place unreached by anyone else? What then? Will you, the devout Christian, be there to save me?

I doubt it.

Answer 5

Why, oh why do people continue to ask the same questions over and over?

No one has a * clue * how they'll act just prior to their last breath, assuming they even have a chance to put a few thoughts together.

Some Christians act as though they'll welcome it, eager to meet God.  Some atheists have their stoic, reality-is-only-what-I-see hard-*** attitude to protect and act as if death is no big thing.

It all comes down to that last gasp.  That's when we'll see who * really * has the stones to act as if what they've yapped about all these years is really true.

I don't exclude myself.  I'm a Christian and absolutely believe I  am going to heaven.  Yet I, too, wonder how I will act in those last, few moments.  

Answer 6

Oh, I have heard many atheists say yes, but when it came down to it, they had a revelation of the fact that eternal life is real and theirs is not favorable... and praise God, they accepted Jesus into their hearts.  

Answer 7

yes, I've been there and taken that test and I emerged an atheist. Actually that's not totally accurate. I was kind of agnostic but I refused to pray to God for help out of pride and a simple understanding that if there was a 'God' that I couldn't fool him into thinking I actually respected 'His' sadistic *** anyway.

Answer 8

I certainly hope so.

Answer 9

Yup

Answer 10

Their are no dead atheist. Think about it.

Answer 11

Yes.  

Answer 12

Yep.

Just because everyone else drinks the kool-aid of some whack job ideology doesn't mean its true.

Answer 13

Certainly, i'm not a hypocrite.

Answer 14

Yes.

Answer 15

I'll still be agnostic yes.

I am no hypocrite.

Can the same be said for Christians? Can they live life in the same manner they claim they should? I have yet to see one Christian do that.

' Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, wine in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO HOO what a ride!" '

It's not about how you die, it's about how you live.

Answer 16

Unlike most Christians I do not just want to 'save' myself, so I can get into 'heaven'. I want to help others in this life. That is the most important thing. And if you think the real way to eternal happiness is following the bible or begging 'God', you are wrong. Real eternal happiness goes to those that have given everything up to help people that need help. If 'God' doesn't reward these people I don't want to have anything to do with him.

When I am lying on my death bed I won't care about going to h**l as long as I know I did my very best to make a difference in the lives of people who needed help more than I, because that would give me eternal happiness.

Answer 17

well, yeah unless some god drops by to say tarah...

Answer 18

Some of them will become believers, as Mary, the Great Mother of God, will obtain for them the grace to believe in God at the hour of death.

God bless!

Answer 19

unless god existing is proven, or god himself proves it, yes, yes i will still be an atheist on my death bed

Answer 20

I'll be a Heathen on my deathbed, as I cut my wrist open where I have a tattoo of Gungnir and the Valknut.  That's assuming of course Odin lets me get that old :-)

Answer 21

No! I'm gonna convert to Islam! There's f***-all in the afterlife anyway but if I'm wrong 72 virgins is better than a poke in the eye with a sharp stick!

Answer 22

Indeed, as have all my family members who lived as such. But I do understand how difficult it is for many to even accept the idea of actual death.

Answer 23

you should have asked...

"Will you still be an atheist when you start smelling the sulphur?"

Answer 24

yes of course i will

i would never want to be a member of a group whose symbol was a guy nailed to two pieces of wood.

Answer 25

Yes.

Will you still be a Christian on your death bed, or will you suddenly realize that Islam is true, and pray for Allah to save you?

Answer 26

Its more then likely i will be...

Answer 27

Yes, and if I'm ever in a foxhole again, there too.

Answer 28

No, i will be a Satanist and be happy that my time has come to pass on to true paradise.
