Shortly thereafter Moses said, "Good, I can feel your anger. I am defenseless. Take your weapon. Strike me down with all of your hatred and your journey towards the dark side will be complete!"

Hey, I don't have anything to prove concerning which of us is master here.

Is it better to serve in Heaven or to rule in Hell?

I'm willing to wager neurovore has posted "non serviam" the most number of times of any poster here.

Neither. It's best to be kickass on Earth.

Interesting.

So are Heaven and Hell strictly constructs of Earth and Human souls?

Do other "species" (alien races) have their own heaven and hell?

What about Cross Species Breeds? do they get their own afterlife?

I guess that might require a Religion in Science Fiction thread tho.

You're starting to get into territory where folks arch their backs, bristle their fur and bare their fangs.

Or go write their own novels on the subject.

The mind is its own place, and in it self
Can make a Heav'n of Hell, a Hell of Heaven:
What matter where, if I be still the same
And what I should be, all but less then He
Whom thunder hath made greater ? Here at least
We shall be free; th'Almighty hath not made
Here for His envy, will not drive us hence.
Here we may reign secure, and in my choice
To reign is worth ambition, though in Hell.

Your absolutely right.

But what you don't know about me is I kind of like to debate religion just to get people all stirred up. Same goes for politics.

I don't really care either way, but getting a rise out of someone is worth it.

The reason I don't care is: Does winning an argument about religion actually accomplish anything? other than self satisfaction for winning an argument.

Same can be said for any nontangible school of thought such as Politics, Art, Literature, Philiosophy, Psychology, Law, etc.

Most of the theories in all of these are opinions, granted there are areas in each that are very applicable and practical, but one can argue what is GOOD ART or BAD ART, or GOOD LIT or BAD, or wheter or not ADD exist or is just made up for lazy parents.

Not here, it isn't. Here, it's worth a short, enforced vacation from the boards.

True. Here Religion and Politics are off limits.

What if a person talks about a fictional religion in a fictional story? Does that still count?  :P

I am kidding I am not really going to get into Religion or Politics.

Let's talk about the Economy instead.  ;D

May I alternatively suggest the museum of BaaaaaaD  Art?

Speaking as someone who has actually converted people, yes it does.
