Life After Death

[Hulkotron]

I also often ponder these puzzles.

[Matt]

Still a blessing I guess but to early in life to say never know what’s round the corner that would never want to go through again but would have to be pretty horrific to outdo all the good times, thinking about it I’d give almost anything to relive many years at many stages of life so I’d say blessing

Henda,

Sounds like your life has been one of many enjoyable evenings with your mates at the pub drinking pints of ale you have a penchant for, avoiding bellends and narky, cheeky, stinking cunts [except for one notable one on Getbig who sharted and stank up the entire Arnold Classic expo convention hall, on multiple occasions].

Not to mention, many enjoyable trolly rides.

My friend invited a true Englishman over to my place once. I asked him "Speaking Canadian English, do I sound like a bum to you?"

He replied "It sounds pretty common, yes."

An Englishman's way of telling me, yes, I sound like a bum.

I'm sort of curious if we spoke in person, if you'd expect me to say "I wash muhself with a rag on a stick!" [like our stinking friend does].

Im absolutely OBSESSED with this. I obviously have no clue if there is or if we are just worm food, or in my case after, ashes in a dog park.
I read about peoples NDE experiences but just  have no idea if they are real or not.  I would never off myself (sorry certain members), but I look forward to the end to see if anything happens.

It's real. I had an NDE and every since I've seen and heard spirits everyday
I feel I'm like a physical medium. I'm literally touched every hour of the day by spirits. I've been attacked by a spirit that followed me home from my old job. I don't buy antiques or secondhand items because I was also haunted by an angry spirit. All my "dreams" are about dying, seeing spirits, or being attacked. Im not religious but there's something after death. I wear a cross pendant at night before bed because I'm mostly attacked or "jumped"( a spirit using my body). If you want to experience something wild, learn how to voluntary have an oobe(out of body experience).

brain injury? Im actually just reading that voluntary oob can be correlated to brain injury

These things have been explained by the way the brain functions.

Matrix?

Makes sense. Tech is going that way. What are the odds we are the civilization before we get to that tech, compared to an eternity with it. Unless we never get there and destroy ourselves first.

I melt down once a year contemplatin the potential exit from life.  It causes me to lose my bearings and i get scared and i go into 'mania' for a minite or 2. I have a fear of the whole life experience was just an experience and gone forever , or im trapped in the 'eternal' it makes me sick and i cant deal with it logically . I feel like exploding just talking about it

[SOMEPARTS]

What the fuck does that even mean? High school? What are you talking about?

It means death and the afterlife is something most people think about before middle age.

[titusisback]

Believing in life after death is a sign of mental weakness. Inability to cope with notion of eventuality and the fact that we're not special, one step ahead of a monkey with a larger than life ego based on nothing

If it makes you feel any better, you won't even know when you die. You just got blank.

Sleep well young falcon.

This is a good post. Makes sense

[Hypertrophy]

I’m starting to believe that we are living in a simulation.

We actually are - or a fake construct. It has been shown for example  that a baby sees images early on with no concept of what a shape or color is. We teach them to equate shapes with concepts. For example- we call a triangularly shaped green object a" tree". For the rest of our lives we distinguish what we see as a collection of objects that we are taught to identify.


We limit our understanding of the world to what we have been programmed to see. So yes, a simulation...

I had an OOB experience as a kid sledding. I crashed into a fence (head first) and I floated up and was hovering over my body (floating) and could see all my friends running down the hill to check on me. And then I came back in an instant. It was really weird.

It was so real it something I thought I’d never forget an now I can barely describe it, lol.

There is a sense is which time is an illusion. We all exist in the now. That is all there is....no evidence of anything else.

We were all brought up in a culture that believes all manner of myths including religions. Add to this movies and we all have plenty of ideas instilled in us about life, the supernatural and science fiction.

Science has accounts for matter and the universe. I see no reason to resort to the supernatural because there is no evidence any of that is true. There is no evidence that Jesus existed. We

learn so much crap through institutions such as religion. No wonder so many end up confused about what is real and what to believe. The internet hasn't helped the multitudes.

Part of the journey of an educated persons is to get rid of all the nonsense ideas before they die. By the way, the talk about being a simulation is utter nonsense.

I don't know anymore than anyone else but I'd just like to see my old dogs and cats again.

Interesting.  I have heard many question the deity of Jesus but to say there is no evidence of His existence is really taking a stance.

One of the things that has disappointed me as a philosopher is to discover there is no evidence, other than the fabricated Bible, that he even existed.

Would people invent a religion and then give the 'deity' an earthly existence? You bet. This was done all the time in the past. You can't trust religions. This is a sad thing because those

religions still impact on most societies. We are supposed to have ideals such as honesty and integrity but religions are fabricated nonsense that some make up

for their selfish reasons. Same old control and profit.

Fair enough I have no arguement on your views on religion.

Its interesting you dont think there is evidence that Jesus existed. It's a nice story either way.

I think "Jesus" was based on someone that did exist and left a very strong imprint on those he encountered.  Chances that his Palestinian drivers license read Jesus H. Christ are probably nil.  I agree about the nice story part sans the brutal crucifixion.  That being said, if more people read the actual teaching of Jesus, namely the beatitudes, the world would be a better place.
