Afterlife/death

---

My great gramma went off her rocker too, but my gramma had a lot to do with it. I still have a hard time not blaming her for how my great gramma ended up. I think... I hope I take well enough care of my body that I just, die with my wits about me.

dang Mr. Doomsday! lol I'm so glad I'm a Christian

The non-Christian is Mr.Doomsday? That's funny considering how the Bible ends.

and ive looked into my religion and others (not only did i take a bible class but also a world religions class) and the christian religion seems the most logicalAm I the only one who thinks religion is just a pick game anyway? I mean, there are so many to chose from, you can join whichever religion you like, and everyone seems to agree that there is something out there, so one of those religions is right. Which one? We don't know, but we all have to choose one. I hope whichever you chooses ends up to be the right oen for you.For Atheists, it's a little simpler. We just don't care.> not being able to move my hands, arms, legs, not being able to shower, not being able to talk, walk, drive, speak, hear, thats whats scaryLike I tried to tell you and like sdp said, you won't even know about anything like that. You won't even be thinking about wanting to think about moving. Yes, it's called the end. Darkness, nothing. Quote:dang Mr. Doomsday! lolI'm so glad I'm a ChristianPlease explain

i think death is like b4 ur born.... absoulitly nothing. i have this thougth about death... it's unknown. for me i really don't understand why some people that comit sucide die and i have tryed it since i was 12.... but i'm still alive. a person is in a car wreak and is killed they have on their seat belt but then another in just as bad car wreak no seat belt doesn't die. why?? hell if i know. So here is wut i think. you die when u die. I could crash my bike tomorrow and break my neck and die or i could live to be like 90...... I just don't know. It will happen tho, but how and when is unknown.

do you all think your aware your dead, but un aware of your past? or do you think there is just nothing? i have to think there is some remembrance of who you once were. if you think about it most religions believe in some form of afterlife how could any of you believe in nothingness unless you are atheist?

If you believe in a heavan or something, odds are you believe in remberance of your past self.

I don't.

do you all think your aware your dead, but un aware of your past?No> or do you think there is just nothing?Yes> i have to think there is some remembrance of who you once wereOther people whom you've touched will remember you.> if you think about it most religions believe in some form of afterlife how could any of you believe in nothingness..?How can people think there is a form of afterlife? With something like death, nobody knows. Just because some religion somewhere came up with an afterlife (or the Egyptians, whoever did it) does that mean there actually is one?I personally find it easier to believe there is nothing after you die.I like wht CR said: Remember what happened before you were born? That's death.

to be honest.. i don’t want to remember my past. not now and not after death (if it happens) sometimes i think I’m already dead tho... and I’m in hell and that’s why i can’t forget the past. but i know that’s just my mind being stupid.  Quote:do you all think your aware your dead, but un aware of your past? or do you think there is just nothing? I think when I’m dead…I’m dead. Unaware of anything at all…. There is nothing.i dk wut i am anymore... i'm been thinking over the years about this god thing. to me IF this heaven and hell thing is true then i'm going to hell anyway ...so why does it matter.

I can't believe you're actually trying to make someone believe that, ESPECIALLY without a source.The whole "2-body" bullshit is ridiculous as well. You don't know that for a fact, and neither does anyone else.

_So yes, whether you're religious or non-religious, all of us do have an afterlife. _

Lets just say that is your "belief" and not necessarily the truth because no one can prove there is an afterlife. We'll know(if there is one) when we die.

lol.. i started to say something about spirits.. lol my mom believes that. when we die the body dies but the sprit lives and goes to heaven or hell... i really didn't want to get into that so i didn't say nothing. if u really want me to i can get into some heavy shit with this spirit and angel shit. (again it's all on wut a person believes) like i said.. if it's true i'm going to hell so why does it matter? ok so i'll get personal here... god is a all loving god and all knowing god.. right? right (so i been thought) so.. my thing is if he is so loving and all knowing (meaning he knew b4 i was born wut would happen to me) then why the hell did he let me be tourcherd for about 12 or 13 years of my life? why was i even born? why did he let her be a demon bitch?....he’s all knowing.. right....... makes odd sound my mom says i'm not dead because of his "purpose" for me... when i tried to slit my wrist my brother just happened to have had to go pee..... and busted me. she says it was god. i say it just happened to have happened.. There is a word for it but I can’t freaking spell it! It don’t make since to me.. The god that gave ryan a need to pee and bust me is the same one that never ever gave any one a need to bust in on her while she was raping me…… death is liek a religion debate... cuz wut peopel think about afterlife / deth has to do with wut they belive. so... i don't know. i just think like i said there is nothing after...nothing

Quote: I can't believe you're actually trying to make someone believe that, ESPECIALLY without a source. it's ok stillserching (didn't want to use ur name ..dk if it's ok or not) my mom belive that too. his source of that kind of belife is either religius teaching or the BIble........(both usally togeather..lol) but yea i seprated them cuz some times peopel will go by a religion there tought and never read the bible so..... yea i agree on the fact thing... no one really knows.

You can use my name, I don't care.I respect his beliefs, but he made his post sound like it was fact and that was the 100% truth. If he had said "these are my bleiefs, etc. etc." that would've been much better.If I made a new topic saying "There is no god. You're all wrong" people would get mad at me, wanna bet?

lol yea.iches head i think there has been some kind of post like that. i dk.. at one time there was like alot of religion post debates for a while... if i'm remebering right (and i could be wrong) they all ended up getting locked. it's like politics... those topics will alwasy be side vs. side. and one side trying to make the other side see their side is the right side. LMAO actually i think this thread is almost the same. tho it's about death and afterlife usually afterlife and god (or a religion) kind of goes together. most religions believe is some kind of afterlife. and most non-religion (or believers) don't think there is one. (I’m not saying it’s always the way.. tho)

Basically, there's going to be no end, so they might as well lock this thread right now.

Anyway, I'm going to go out and get drunk. Good seeing you CR

your all right this can be debated for years, and probably has. im the poster and havent posted nearly as much as some others. i guess the best thing to do is live my life now, and when death comes, accept it cause frankly i dont have much of a choice.

U had a question and u asked.. This is why this place is here. it’s good to hear different sides. That way u can take wut u like and build ur own thoughts around it….. kinda.  Quote:i guess the best thing to do is live my life now, and when death comes, accept it cause frankly i dont have much of a choice. Yea.. I agree.

Agreed

wow calm down guys. it's honestly not that serious.

Still searching you said this to someone,

Then I have great news for you: You don't have to! Death is ntohing, and you won't be able to imagine anything. You won't remember anything, you won't even think at all, you won't be anything.

I've stared death in the face so many times, so I know EXACTLY where you're coming from when you say death is scary. You think it's scary now, just imagine how scary it is when you realize you jus thave to take one more step to die. That's some scary shit.

You just have to realize that there is nothing you can do to stop it. The more you try to prevent it, the sooner it'll probably come. Just live life to it's fullest (there's a reason people like this statement) every day - you never know when it might be the end.

Every itty bitty teency weency little thing that you said in all of the above is the EXACT and COMPLETE opposite of what I believe in. but I'm sure you saw that coming. You, Java, Bob etc believe in that kind of mindset? Ok. It's all good. I'm not hating on you for that. I just think differently. Sure I used to be afraid of death. Not so much for myself though, moreso for my family and friends because I know I will miss them like crazy. But I'm not necessarily afraid to die. Well ok that's a lie since it's going to be weird for me I'm a little nervous. But not really because I know what's going to happen. I know where I'm going. (go ahead, I know what you guys are going to say). But it's ok. I won't even mention some of the things I'd like to say. I'll probably mention it to Armondo and Damien and Eddie since they will mostly likely be the only ones to understand what I'm talking about, no offense.

But not to be rude, I just think when you talk about these things you sound like death himself. And it's... kinda creepy. It's like "whether you like it or not you WILL DIE!" DUN DUN DUN. And the whole "live life to it's fullest" ordeal. It's kind of hard to interpret that in either a good or bad way. everybody has a different idea of what that may be.
