I apologise if I have misunderstood you, but to be honest I don't think I have. You were making a bigger issue out of it than anyone else to be quite frank. At any rate it really is a non-issue so let's just drop it. Peace and harmony.

I don't get it, why are you guys not eating exactly during the day ? What I also don't get is that you all obey some kind of rules whitout even knowing if it will change something in the afterlife, which I doubt there is one, meaning that it's maybe uselless ... . Not to mention how horrible that feast can be for the body system !!!

um you said "you follow rules without knowing it's affect on the afterlife"
I'll take it in two points. Firstly, how do you know we dont know?
Secondly, we dont believe in an after life.
When we die we go to heaven or hell. simple as that.
Regarding health.
It's not like we starve ourselves :S
If you are sick, you can eat, if you absolutely have to, you can eat, there are many exceptions. (young children dont need to fast, and as you grow you ween yourself into learning how to do it)
We wake up early in the morning, eat a light snack, continue sleeping and when we wake up we dont feel hungry for example.
Here is a link that shows how fasting can be good for your health.

Here is a link that says that fasting is the key to good health.

by the way, that took me TWO seconds to search on google with the terms "ramadan, fasting, good health?" You can do it too if you feel you are unsure of something.

.
Btw your
TWO seconds of search on google has brought articles based on faith of people but I don't say they are wrong, it can be good/bad for the body but why on this period ? Why you need a specific date to fast while you can do it anytime you want during the year ?
I know some people that are fasting and when it's over, they rush on fastfoods and things like that

The Holy Quran, Verses 50-51 from Chapter 7 states:
The Companions of the Fire will call to the Companions of the Garden: "Pour down to us water or anything that Allah doth provide for your sustenance." They will say: "Both these things hath Allah forbidden to those who rejected Him."
"Such as took their religion to be mere amusement and play, and were deceived by the life of the world." That day shall We forget them as they forgot the meeting of this day of theirs, and as they were wont to reject Our signs.

Show me proof that an afterlife doesn't exist ... you can't.

@Jim, dont forget you are in a religious thread. At the end of the day it comes down to faith. If you are unbeliever there is little I can do to persuade you that it is good for you.
The threads I provide you clearly explain medically why fasting is good and not what religious people 'think'. I think you either didn't read it or just skimmed through.
We fast at a particular time because it is a time when we pay respect to the prophet that guided us through troubled times. I can google the full reason if you like.

@amnesia and other Muslims
I have a other question, i cant google since i dont have a computer, but Why is it forbidden to make photo's or statues from living creatures. Because lots of my muslim friends say its forbidden and that im Strange Because i pray for a picture of God. But if i ask them Why they cant give me a answer. They say its written in the Koran that's the reason. But i wanna know Why

It's simple, God has no Image
Chapter 112 from The Glorious Quran states:
Say: He is Allah, the One and Only;
Allah, the Eternal, Absolute;
He begetteth not, nor is He begotten;
And there is none like unto Him.
There is nothing like Him, He is Unseen, He is the greatest, The Eternal, The Creator, The Manifest, The Sublime. No Image can be created of the Almighty One.
Verse 2 and 3 from Chapter 2 states:
This is the Book; in it is guidance sure, without doubt, to those who fear Allah.
Who believe in the Unseen, are steadfast in prayer, and spend out of what We have provided for them.
