It's not negative unless it has a negative effect upon the person saying it. I think this is your opinion of whether it's negative or not...

Ahh, but it's your opinion that the Catholic belief is more negative. It would be far more depressing, for me, to live eternally, and forever.

okay then. although i 100% disagree with that - i would much rather believe in a heaven, an afterlife or, in my opinion, rebirth - than live knowing that when i die, that is the end of me. i would no longer exist in the universe and if I have not done anything towards mankinds evolution, there was not much point of me being here.

Now we're just back to the point of the meaning of life. And if there's no meaning of life - to you - unless you do something to help mankind's evolution, do it, and then maybe you can reconsider why you're living? I don't see anything wrong with ceasing to exist, myself. You wouldn't even be aware. I mean, you would be dead...

exactly. someone meantioned it was a neverending cirlce of conflicting ideas. i agree with them. and of course i believe in a meaning of life.

anyway, avoiding this argument about evolution and meaning, lets go back to the start. Creation. Catholics believe that the craetor is God. How do you percieve the universe began if not believing in a greater power?

God Is Real.
