Liu, isn't an atheist, he's just in denial.

 

[dave is ok]

To be fair, all of the talk of God/heaven/angels in every Steve Jobs thread is pretty disrespectful of the man himself considering he wasn't Christian.

Oh good. I think we were all worried the classless atheist jackass contingent wouldn't show up to piss their bitterness and projected insecurity all over a eulogy thread.

Grow up.

Some people simply find it hard to believe in angels and gods (and by extension, fairies and dragons). They are allowed an opinion.

He was a buddhist, so no it isn't disrespectful since he himself somewhat believed in a life beyond or at least wanted to believe, he just didn't have proof. If he believed in Nirvana and at the end saw an incredible light coming towards him, I could see him saying OH WOW. Overall I can't help but have the feeling that in some way his vision was "enhanced" as he passsed on.

In the after life you have to use poorly design products with no intrinsic value. We call that heaven.

Interesting that he was such a man of science, while also being a man of faith.

That is one of the few admirable qualities I can really respect of the man, other than intelligence and personal drive.

Sounds like someone needs some angel hugs.

I have a feeling that his final words will haunt my thoughts for the rest of my adult life.

"Oh wow. Oh wow. Oh wow"

What did he see? Did he see an afterlife? A new invention that would have changed the world, again?

Ugh.

Look up NDE's. It's a common thing to see visions moments before death.

 

[CrankyJay]

What if he was really saying "oh ow" because he was in pain?
