The Reviews about Thoughts of a Dying Atheist (page 7/ 19)
------ performed by Muse


To all you intolerants | Reviewer: Michelle | 9/24/08

Wow, HYPOCRITE much? Why don't you stop putting words into our mouths? I am not afraid to die, and I don't mind the fact that my body will rot and decompose in soil.

Just because we're atheists, doesn't mean we have no moral values. If you are so feeble-minded as to think that moral values can only be derived from religion- then let's put it harsly: Grow some brains.

I'm an atheist. I've done community service all over the world. I've given to the poor, spoke with the homeless, hugged an orphan. I'm working for Amnesty International as a volunteer after I graduate-

and guess what? I'm not doing all of this because a book of myths told me to.

I work among plenty of Christians that are tolerant and friendly. I met plenty of kind muslims while working in Egypt. How does this make me a bigot?

Atheists aren't bigots. We are tolerant of others and their beliefs- You might wannna learn the difference between an atheist and a hardcore. Big difference hun.
What about the hardcore Christians that were preaching "GOD HATES FAG! GOD BLESS THE HOLOCAUST! GOD BLESS DEAD FAG SOLDIERS" (or something along the lines of that)

Learn to differentiate between moderates and extremists. I'm not even trying to argue against the existence of god here. I just can't stand intolerant people that hypocritically whine about others being intolerant.

Why don't you start judging people by who they are instead of what religion they believe in?



Contrary to popular belief | Reviewer: Johnathan King | 9/24/08

I am an atheist and I hate it when some looks at me when I say it like I commited a crime. Its a religious choice and I have my reasons. I also hate when people think IM a pompus jerk just because Im atheist. I respect any religion. I also have friends that are atheist too. but there like me. they respect other religions and dont act like jerks.

I do believe in souls though and yes I do believe in ghosts to an extent. I just believe in a higher being or a lower one either.



what? | Reviewer: cate | 9/21/08

I love this song more than anything in the world. Not really, but it's a good song.
I'm a Christian, just to add to you debaters. =] I think it's funny how most athiests are close-minded, completely narcissistic, mysogynistic jerks that hide behind evolution. They're all terrified to die, but most of them are too hollow and have no purpose for anything, so they don't admit it. People without morals are by far the worst. They don't think they have a purpose to improve their lives, so they sit around trying to ruin other people's.
That's why America is being torn apart, because no one cares about anything. They all think we die and it's over, we don't have an afterlife, so why be kind to other people? There's no point.
Athiests are bigots.
Bye bye! =]



Escape from Reason - read it. | Reviewer: Origins | 9/4/08

I like these debates...it gets people thinking. I like the explanation from someone early on in these comments, describing the song as an atheist having second thoughts. We all should have second thoughts. Where did anything and everything come from? Some believe God created all things...Possibly! Some say everything came from two particles colliding or "Big Bang". Okay...if that's the case, where did the particles come from? They then say they were always there. That's attributing eternality (having no beginning and no end) to the particles, thus making the particles "God". Either way you are left with the ideology, philosophy, theology of everything in existence having an ORIGIN...creation. Now, you are left with the question...what is God?
Research it. Seek truth. It's not easy.
Here's what I have found. God is spirit, infinite, eternal, immutable (unchangeable in His being), wisdom, power, holiness, justice, goodness and truth. I refuse to go to my death without seeking the truth.



... | Reviewer: K | 9/3/08

there could be thousands of opinions but that cant change the facts.
the fact that you believe in something doesnt make it to be true.

god doesnt exist because you believe in "him"
(i say "him" 'cause i don think its "it")

im not trying to convince anyone but consider this: if you die,there is nothing. you just stop existing and end.

if thats its true then you cant remember anything in the "non-existence", because you dont exist. you cant make new memories either

then all the memories you have here in the life just vanish like when you are drunk or on drugs

if you ,after death, just vanish then every single thing that you are living right now do not exist either; a non existence doesnt start at death, it never starts.

if you exist, then you cant just "un-exist"
if you non-exist; then you cant "exist"
you cant have both.




Spirituality or Humanity? | Reviewer: Not Important | 8/28/08

To understand death you must first understand life.
Figure out why you're here, what your role is, as insignificant as it may be, and you will lose your fear of death. People live through death. It's called history, and if you are afraid of dying, achieve something magnificent in your life so that you may be remembered, and in turn, live through memories for centuries to come.
Selflessness is usually a good way to achieve this, whether 1 person or millions remember your acts. Our society lacks chivalry, lacks the endorsement of responsibility, everyone avoids it. Be more than a Chordate and think with your brain, not your spine. Help those who cannot help themselves, and regardless what is at the end, whether God waits for you, or you simply decompose and return all your energy to the Universe (entropy of the Universe always increases), the people that have shared experiences with you will remember you as noble and chivalrous.
Choice is the only thing that separates a good person from a bad one. Think about it



... | Reviewer: Laura | 8/19/08

why is everyone trying to convince people about their beliefs? Its not going to change your thoughts.
Im an athiest and have no reason to read a comment on here and suddenly turn to god.
stop trying to justify your own belief and allow someone else to believe differant.
Dying scares me a little, but not because of what follows, because i believe nothing follows so why should i be scared of nothing?. Just because of the concept of dying. This song is amazing, One of my favourite muse songs. awesome band too.



There can't be a God | Reviewer: Dutch Atheist | 7/31/08

There can't be a God, if there was one, he would show up so everyone would believe him.

I'm not worried I'll go to hell because there isn't one. If I die I'll just be gone and that's it.

Muse is one of the best bands ever, and the song is great.



...anyone forget to talk about the song? | Reviewer: anonymous | 7/29/08

oh come on people give it up. there are too many opinions in this world to settle on just one, so stop trying..
anyway, back to the point of even posting this, the song is an amazing song and muse is an amazing band. period.



@ Paul | Reviewer: kei | 7/26/08

Please, don't try to convince people to believe or disbelieve in a god. It's like advertising for a product, like shampoo. I'm an atheist and I feel no gap, so a god would have nothing to fill, thus negating your point.
