> [@Stoid](#): > > This is a response to CC who threadshat in my GQ [thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=13207943#post13207943) asking about Jewish belief in the afterlife. You’re correct in the general but wrong in the specific: **CC** ’s post was threadshitting, but not because he was wrong about there being an afterlife. You were asking a concrete question about beliefs, which means that for someone to come in and point out that the thing the beliefs are about doesn’t exist is pointless and retarded. But to claim that it’s equally logical to believe in an afterlife as to not is fucking retarded and demonstrates a complete misunderstanding of the rules of science and logic. If you disagree, I’d like to introduce you to the invisible, intangible, floating, silent dragon who lives in the garage of my apartment building. Oh, and he doesn’t eat, breathe, shit, or give off heat. But you can’t prove he doesn’t exist, so it’s arrogant to claim that I’m wrong! > [@Morgenstern](#): > > I’ve always felt that people who don’t believe have a deep seeded fear of people who do believe. Otherwise, why would they bother raining on someone’s parade? I was going to point out that this is “deep seated,” but \*\*BT \*\*beat me to it. He also beat me to a critique of your argument. So, really, I guess this post is pretty redundant. --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/cc-this-isnt-really-a-pitting-but-since-its-personal/562768)._
