See this is why people don’t bother trying to engage with you. You’re worse than a bot. Always dodging everything. Totally disingenuous.
But you just dodged my question. Here it is again:

R u denying that religious people say that atheists don't have moral agency because why would they (atheists)?

Now, bear in mind, you are not "religious people", your views may differ to some other religious people

I have explained my position. Asking me about what some of the other 7 billion people on the planet think is moronic.

The difference is how moral actions are ordered. Unbelievers may act in accordance with natural law, but without faith and sanctifying grace. They lack the supernatural virtues that order those actions toward eternal beatitude. You won’t like or even understand that answer, but there you go.

Now, that that’s out of the way….if consciousness is entirely reducible to brain activity, how do you account for rigorously documented death experiences, such as those in the Lancet study by Pim van Lommel; where patients reported accurate perceptions of their surroundings during periods of flatlined EEG and absent cortical activity. In other words, how can veridical conscious experience occur in the total absence of measurable brain function and why is there such commonality in these death experiences regardless of the cultural or religious background of the person who dies?

You’re on your final warning. Answer the question or bugger off.

There is genuinely something wrong with you.

Anyhoo, now that you’ve got that nonsense off your chest…

lofl What's "nonsense" about it, you oblivious fool? I'm literally addressing the biggest insult theists have for atheists, why is that nonsense?

I asked you what you think a soul is

I didn't ask you why you think that it's proof of God

Any chance the alco can take his religious obsession to a separate thread?
This is fucking ridiculous now, it's basically spamming and shitposting.

If the soul is an illusion, then explain why people who are clinically dead, with no measurable brain activity, consistently report vivid and verifiable experiences, as documented in peer-reviewed studies like Pim van Lommel’s Lancet paper on Near Death Experiences or the AWARE study led by Dr. Sam Parnia; without a soul, consciousness simply has no business surviving brain death.
That's a genuine question. But you fall down immediately by stating there's an afterlife of eternal torture because an 18 year old lad once wore a Johnny,

Can't you see the difference Sir?

Libs of TikTok have shown the full video.
I have it but I don't think it should be posted here, it's heartbreaking to watch.
I have not watched it either. I have read about it. I was listening to Delingpole earlier talking to some guy who fancied himself as a philosopher and they were talking about Truth and Beauty and how evil stuff like this weighs in your mind and cannot be unseen. I think they had a point. I remember watching a beheading video very early on in the Iraq war. A US or UK aid worker beheaded by an ISIS team. It has stayed with me ever since, I regretted it and wish I had never seen it.

Have to agree with you there.
Sorry I watched it now, the poor kid.
It isn't bloody or gory but the expression on that girl's face will haunt me for some time to come, I'm sure.
