Well, death is a special thing. We see it as something horrendous, but nobody wants to live forever. I had thoughts about suicide at one point because I noticed I am no more than just a slave in a world where no true freedoms exist living under the monetary existence that is currency, but I changed my mind. I enjoy life to the fullest and I do not believe that death can stop it. I die. It happens, who knows what may happen after?
(Or maybe I get revived :P) |

apart from that.. the more you think about death, the more confused you get. and then it becomes scary or at least that's how it is with me.. |
Everyone has to die. After they die, everyone goes to heaven, because everyone almost always thinks they are right. To prevent overcrowding in heaven, we get reborn again as who-knows-what.
|
There's Heaven, and there's Hell. Those who've accepted Jesus Christ as their Lord and Saviour go to Heaven, eternal happiness, when they die, and those who don't go to Hell, eternal suffering and damnation.
Simple. |
i love how people smugly barge in here and tell people what's going to happen when they die as if they're certain.

Are you really any different? Waltzing in here and telling us that our beliefs are pure fairytales that out parents fed us? Get outta here with that ********. You're no better than anyone else. I know what happens after death. I don't see you helping anything.

I may just be jumpin the gun, but when people say that parents feed us "answers" they're usually implying parenst are feeding us bullcrap. Hence the quotes.

HAY GUIZE
Death's kind of awesome. There's so much crap you can't do in real life, but I still kinda miss Earth. Although things are kind of the suck down there so I'm probably going to just hang around here before I resurrect myself, lol |
Ok, I know death has much to do with religion, but Izanagi, that's sort of pushing it. Have you thought about other religions that are isolated and forced to never hear about Jesus's word. Do they go to hell? That is, if that is the case of afterlife. Because truth is nobody know for real what happens in death.
All we have is science to explain the phenomenon. As I said in my poor banned alternated (XD) You don't really die until your brain activity terminates. After that it's all pure mystery. |
Just posting my view on it froma a Christian stand point. Didn't expect for everyone to just fall in line. I don't know about isolated people. I'd think that if you've never heard of Jesus Christ you would be given grace, sort of like a child who cannot understand would, or God would send someone to spread the Gospel. Again, this is from a Christian standing point.
|
You where posting it from a "THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS, ACCEPT IT" point of view not a "This is what I, as a Christian, believe happens" one.
And no, no it's not simple, it's far from simple. Also, if you don't "accept" Jesus you go to hell, if you do heaven. What if you are good person, what if you do charity work, have a happy family, help the needy, but atheist? do you go to hell then? What if you are a bad person, hurt people, maybe even kill, commit adultery but at thiest? Do you get into heaven (Assuming you confess before you die)? |
About this heaven/hell talk...
I'm an atheist. Maybe there is something beyond death, maybe it is just a passing sleep, though. We don't know. The religious can believe in something, but at the end of the day, they aren't sure of it. Everybody is agnostic if logic and reasoning is applied (not calling anyone dumb here, just saying that religious people act on feeling instead of logic), but religious people feel their faith, they feel it like it's there. Well, that's probably something only they can feel, maybe they're right, maybe they're wrong. I have no idea how death is like, but I want to die one day, this is why I refuse the idea of a heaven. Immortality is too painful, the heaven would turn into hell after a couple of centuries. I want a final rest. I am terribly afraid of dying and leaving a son without a father to raise him in the future, otherwise, may death come. This is from an atheist stand point. Don't get offended. EDIT: corrected a typo. |

Yeah, reincarnation is possible. When you die your soul energy or whatever is probably shot up from your body and attracted to a fertilization somewhere else. Peace gets boring after a while too, you know. So why not keep living as something else? |

It's more like a Divine Soul Recycling Project, other than something we actually experience. Bah. Anyway, even if heaven had Heavy Metal and pretty girls forever, I would still want to die sooner or later. |
I am not afraid of death because I know that it is eventual. I am only afraid of some of the painful ways of getting there that are beyond my control, like murder or cancer because you have to go through a lot of suffering and wait them out for what feels like an eternity. The best way to die, in my opinion, would be in a deep sleep without even knowing.

I don't think so. Nobody is sure how death is like, otherwise, we wouldn't be afraid of dying. Even the most holy of humans will try to survive at a critical condition. Why is that? It's because we're all agnostics at the very core. We're not sure of anything. It's beyond human knowledge and comprehension, as of today. All that religious people can do is believe. And that, is feeling. Everyone else thinks about the most logical end. |

Are you saying that faith makes a person illogical (real question)? I have yet to see anything factual and logical that contradicts my faith. I don't plan to carry this on for much longer, lest the mods attack. But one more round or VMs are okay with me. |
Death is an interesting concept.
If there is no afterlife, you may be sad for a while, but everything must come to an end. It sucks, but it's inevitable, and we can only move on. If there is an afterlife, death isn't all that sad because it's only a temporary separation, not really an end. Either way, death isn't all that bad to the guy going through it in my opinion. It does tend to be pretty bad to those who loved him or her though. Quote:
