"Eventually we got to talking about religion and who gets to go to heaven."
We already live in a real heaven, the planet Earth.
A magical 2nd life in a magical heaven is the most ridiculous fantasy ever invented. Cowards believe in it because it makes them feel good.
Muslims believe in it because it gives them an excuse to blow themselves up.
------------------------------------
You can live in your childish everything-is-magic fantasy world. Nobody cares. The problem is you people brainwash little children to believe your nonsense. This is child abuse and there's no excuse for it.

Mr. Graham is now in the company of worms which are eating his decomposing corpse.

Christians like to insult people. They have zero moral values.

Jerry Coyne, University of Chicago biologist, wrote this about religion and science:
"Religion and science are enemies, for the former touts faith, revelation, and dogma as the way to discern truth about the Universe, while the latter rejects faith absolutely, depending on empirical methods, doubt, confirmation, and consensus. This is all laid out in Faith Versus Fact, and I won’t repeat it here. One more thing: science has repeatedly disproved the truth claims of religion, while religion has never done that to science. And there is not a single truth about the universe accepted by science that has been overturned by religion. They are indeed enemies, for though they both make claims about the nature of reality, one area has methods to adjudicate those truth claims, while the other (religion, of course), doesn’t. If religion did, we wouldn’t have thousands of religions making different and often incompatible claims about reality."
"Darwin was the first to use data from nature to convince people that evolution is true, and his idea of natural selection was truly novel. It testifies to his genius that the concept of natural theology, accepted by most educated Westerners before 1859, was vanquished within only a few years by a single five-hundred-page book. On the Origin of Species turned the mysteries of life's diversity from mythology into genuine science." -- Jerry Coyne

Some comments I wrote at the Wall Street Journal, also known as the "Christian Journal".
