It's Christian thing...either you beleive or you dont....stop the hypocrisy....you know who you are...
Although commonly associated with Christianity, the phrase is also used in Judaism. This ancient Latin inscription from 688/689 AD begins with a Latin version of the phrase.
There is a menorah in the upper left corner and the Hebrew calendar date is in the lower right.
The phrase was not found on tombstones before the eighth century.[9][10]
It became ubiquitous on the tombs of Christians in the 18th century,[5] and for High Church Anglicans, as well as Roman Catholics in particular, it was a prayerful request that their soul should find peace in the afterlife.[4] When the phrase became conventional, the absence of a reference to the soul led people to suppose that it was the physical body that was enjoined to lie peacefully in the grave.[11]
This is associated with the Christian doctrine of the particular judgment; that is, that the soul is parted from the body upon death, but that the soul and body will be reunited on Judgment Day.[12]

I don't think you'll be resting in peace with jabs like that
Rest in pieces got
I actually think rest in peace is more of an atheist thing than a religious thing. Resting in peace implies that the person's body will be stored forever in a coffin underground in peace from the rest of the world, save for maybe an earthquake or two. If you believe in Heaven or , how does that have anything to do with "resting in peace"?
Right on.
As long as some pussy comes with it....I'm pro anything![]()
because heaven in supposed to be peaceful. free of any pain or sorrow or suffering, etc.
is there wifi in heaven? -_-
Is it in the Bible? If not, then no.
If you are a Christian, according to the Holy Book, Heaven consists of a simple life of farming, family, reverence for God and Jesus, and little to no conflict (no serious conflict at all). People ascending to Heaven are endowed with a pair of wings and reunited with their ancestors and other lost friends and family. There is no incentive or means to improve as self-improvement is not necessary; the angel-person has already achieved the highest of standings with the Holy Trinity upon his or her ascendance to Heaven. Therefore, it is a Utopian state of minimalism, altruism and socialism as there are no problems to solve and no means of obtaining wealth greater than that of any fellow angel-person because that would be sinful.
For a pretty good comparison of what Heaven is like according to the Bible, read the first hundred pages or so of the Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring, or the first half-hour or so of the first LOTR movie that corresponds to that. The life in the Shire is basically a Utopian state of negligible advancement, maintenance of farming land and family life and "good-tilled earth" -- with simple parties and social occasions, with no technology nor magic, as the highlight points of a happy yet bleakly cheerless never-ending cycle of life.
If I could have the afterlife of my dreams, I would want to be a spirit traversing all of eternity in outer space with the spirit of the partner with whom I was married and with whom I spent my human life. Her and I would never stop enjoying the boundless universe and each other.![]()
