Things didn't go your way ? You open up a conversation and when people disagree with you you want it shut down. WOW. Prophetic.
Perhaps its time to question yourself - to consider that you are significantly further down the intellectual chain than you giver yourself credit for - why ? - Because religion is profoundly abhorrent - and this is the source of your = 'post' - so instead of feigning indignation at the immediate outburst of justified atheists at your profoundly slanted post - perhaps it is time to put on the hat of consideration - and try and understand WHY, ......WHY is it that your religious outbursts are so offensive in the 21st century - a millennium of reason has come to pass and, usurp, your fracka of irrationality concerning what was once indescribable and is now merely hum-drum.

Religion is death - wrapped in a cloak of veracity, disguised s hope, feigning truth, faking hope, all the while delivering hate, death, injustice, division, and above all lies.
Religion is without doubt - the very worst of man, the very darkest of our attributes manifested in the most vile and contemptible manner.
I am an atheist - religion is abhorrent to my very core - vile.
the misappropriation of dying mens lasts words as validation of incorrigible evil is in way proof - it is affirmation of of the depths plumbed by feckless wonders.
Religion is without doubt the very worst of all of mans creations.

It's amazing how many folk who profess to be atheists will cry out "God help me!" or something along that line, when facing death.

No worries. But you and the OP overlooking that fact shows something interesting.
Too often, we only focus on tag lines and short propaganda sentences instead of examining facts in detail. Just go on any of the major news networks and you'll see what I mean. Their tag lines are so provocative, that they are all people remember and respond too. People have gotten lazy, they don't do their research anymore and happily ingest tag lines only. Take Beck's show for example, his whole show is basically comprised of propaganda tag lines, mixed in with a few truths that any highschooler should already know.
That's NOT a good way to make up your mind about something!

How would people saying religious things before dying prove there's life after death? Fact is, we have no hard evidence for life after death. The "experiences" of some people who came back can easily be explained through body chemistry and processes that happen in the brain when you die.
I'm not saying there is no life after death (in whatever shape or form), but we have no evidence, and the last words of people dying can't really be considered proof of anything other than they were religious
And I'm not bashing religious people, they have the RIGHT to believe whatever they want. I only get "aggravated" when they blatantly try to claim their belief as scientific fact...or when they attack science in an incredibly uninformed manner. Like, if you ask me "if we come from monkeys, why are there still monkeys...see, evolution is wrong!!" then I'm gonna call you an idiot. I'll call you an idiot because that point has been shown to be idiotic about a gazillion times on these boards

Not to mention that Ghandi was not an atheist.
I would be curious to see how many "Christians" had visions of hell and judgment or aloneness on their deathbeds as well.
