    So here is what i want to know.
    sorry for my bad english.

    [FONT=&quot]I am fifteen years old. I would like to ask you a few questions, but I do not know if they are relate to physic. My questions started when I am ten. At that time almost every night, I was afraid of ghost and skeletal appear in front or behind me while I am sleeping. Solving this problem is easy. Two years later, I found something that really, really bothers me. The thing is Death. At that time, I study in a Catholic school. People in there believe heaven and hell. I believe at first. After I know the "mystery" of the sky, I start to not believe it. I really want to know what will happen if we die. My second question is –what is me? Why I am feeling myself? People said we are soul and we have this body. When we die, our soul will come out. Scientists said because the nerves system.( I forgot where I heard this.) I also though that when I person die, he/she just disappear forever and he/she never feel that "me" again. Every time I thought about it, I can feel that my body is going to explode.[/FONT]
     
    so....what do you think. Have you ever thought about it. We have to face it some day......
    I forgot to tell everyone. Orginally, I want to send this to a phsicist, but I think it is better to send it and share it here.
     
    Hmmm... Life, The universe and Everything... doesn't necessarily mean topics like these XD. It's under Technology for a reason...

    Well anyways. I stopped basically reading at "fifteen years old". It's total bull that young people even begin to worry about this kind of subject. Death is something all organisms will go through. And nobody knows what's after death.

    Deal with, tough cookies. Just don't think about this crap and live a life as ****ing awesome as you can make it... and no, I don't mean going around and bunking with every random girl you see.
     
    Eh, in an effort to provide useful information:

    Science, while citing the brain and nervous system as what controls what, and gives us coherent thought (no comment on sentience), seems to point to the existence of a soul on some level. Coma patients and the like can have, to the extent of our current knowledge about such things, fully operational nervous systems and still be in a vegetative state. Very often, nothing can be done to revive the person.
     
    ya, but.....I don't know why I have this scary feeling and I want someone to help me so I won't worry every night or other time. I just.....want something that can comfort me forever......
     
    While you may have been confused with the subforum name, LUE is really just for "hey you want a lockerz invite?" and "have you been to this flash game site? if so what's your favorite game?". And seeing as how this is really something for more on the discussion side it belongs in Other Chat.

    Death is a natural thing in life, but to say someone disappears forever would be incorrect, the person will always be in our minds and memory forever so no one can truly disappear forever. And while you may feel like your body is going to explode, that's just crazy talk... not unless God wants your body to explode then that's another story. :P

    But people have had things called "near-death experiences" and saw their own vision of the after life and some of them may have seen nothing because they didn't believe in God or belong to any religion, but I think God willing accepts anyone into Heaven, despite what religion they belong to.

    So you really shouldn't think or worry too much over the thought of death, no one can escape it.
     
    This sounds like a kind of religion vs science thing. The way the scientists put it, humans are groups of many many cells, some forming tissues, organs, whatever. The cells carry out our bodily functions, and whenever we give way and die, we are simply dead. No more than that. No Heaven, no Hell, no anything of the sort.

    The Catholics and some other religions, however, believe differently. I was raised as a Catholic, and you mentioned you are going to Catholic school. It is believed by myself that whenever you die your body is left behind and your soul is sent up to Heaven(or hell, it depends on whether you lead a good life or not) and you will live for eternity in joy and happiness. Both sides claim to be in the right, but nobody can really know for sure. It's just what you want to believe. You are being raised as a Catholic and are going to a Catholic school, so you are being taught the God, Heaven, Hell side of it.

    Really there is no answer to what happens to you after you die. Once more, it's just what you believe. Whether you think you are going to Heaven(if you lead a good life) or are going to go to Hell(lead quite a horrible life or the like) or if you are going to simply be "gone" is just part of your beliefs.
     
    ya, I don't think about it when I awake. I think about it when I'm lying on the bed and can't sleep.

    What I mean is I thought we might not feel ourselves after we die. You know how you can feel "this-is-me"? Ya this is wasting time, but....thanks for posting and make me feel better now. :)

    Been there, done that. The best thing to do is to just accept life as it is and move on. Keep striving for happiness and a long life. :)
     
    we've all contemplated death and it's an overwhelming idea, but it's inevitable and no one is truly certain of the answer to what happens after. so the most you can do is accept the fact that we're all going to die and move on; and seeing as this life is the only life we're guaranteed, fulfill your goals and desires, try to live a life you're proud of.

    I'm acutally in New York for my grandpa's funeral. He was sick. I was just here about two weeks ago for my other grandparents who died in a car accident.

    It happens to everyone.

    The hard thing is explaining to young kids that they don't have any grandparents because of death...
     
    Death isn't that bad. When I died I felt nothing but peace. There's nothing to be afraid of.

    It depends on who's carrying out the study.


    And to me, the thought of getting old is scarier than dying. Getting more and more frail, hair turning white and all sagging skin, as friends and family die one after another. Not nice at all.
     
    Death Is everywhere around us. You should live life to it's best and fullest. No one actually knows exactly when someone else dies. I personally don't fear Death, it'll happen to everyone someday. And remember, "Cowards Die many times before there time, but only the Brave die once."
     
    Hey I've also grown up going to a Catholic school and lots of their teachings don't make any sense to me anymore when you try to fit them with the science that proves so many of their teachings wrong. It ended up leading me not to not believe in the old testament, but only to believe the teachings of Jesus, man if you just live life to the fullest (This means experiencing the good times, messing up, and even losing the ones you love) you will end up living a great life knowing/loving them you will gain their unconditional love. With this said i hope you will have no worries about death my friend :P
