    I believe in death, but I also believe that when you die you are reincarnated into a new form. Or something like that. Not sure if reincarnated is the right word... might come back as your old self then...

    Well, firstly, let's define death. What is it, an end to your vital signs, when your body no longer functions? What if your bdy works, but your mind does not, a la Terry Schiavo? Or is death more spiritual, someone might continue to life and make concious rational decisions, but what if something tragic happened, and emotionally, they feel nothing. Is that death? It all depends on your perspective, my friends. I tend to take the third view, that without emotional connections, no matter what you do, you are, in effect, dead. Because it is our connections to other people that allow us to actually experience life, instead of just live.

    So yes, from that standpoint, I do believe in death. I've seen it happen, seen people who are spiritually and emotionally bereft of life. I believe in death.

    At the same time, I do not. When the body stops functioning, I believe that the mind, the spirit continues in some way. I'm sixth-sense sensitive, and to those of you who don't believe in that, fine, but I have indeed seen ghosts, I know that in some way, spirits do inhabit our world. One of my best friends has been posessed. If there are other realms that other spirits inhabit, I wouldn't be surprised, but I do not know this for sure. So from that perspective, I do not believe in death, because life is more than just having an active body.

    i think you could be reincarnated, i still beleave in death, because if there was no death you wouldnt be able to reincarnate because you have to die before you reincarnate

    Most of you are just looking at Websters version of Death...the part that comes after life. Well death is inevitable, I know I will die...its the fact that we can't comprehend what comes after life. (Speaking as if I am an atheist to not start any war) Look at it this way we never knew of life until we were born, yet life existed before I was born maybe it exists after I "die". I didn't know what was before life, and I don't know what is to come after it.

    I belive in all that spirit thing and going to hell or heaven. But, I don't belive that Hindusim part on wich they say that deppending upon your Kharma you will be in a lower or higher social level when you reencarnate. I don't belive in reencarnation at all.

    To all the people who keep arguing that there is no such thing as death because the soul lives on: Even if your soul is reborn, your physical body still died, as in every cell ceased to function. So even if you believe in immortality of the soul, you still have to believe in death of the physical body. Therefore you still have to believe in some sort of death.

    Since I can't control the religion issue, Yes the soul does live on...I know that I knew that. Toss religion aside for 1 second, then ask yourself what comes after death...then I don't know but its not death or life since we have never expeirenced it.

    hmm, I dont believe in heaven or hell, but i do believe in spirits and maybe reincarnation

    the reason i dont believe in heavon or hell is because i am in no way religios :P

    But i still believe in death because death isn't anything about the soul dissapearing, its about the body dieing (or as some believe, its about the soul leaving the body)

    But, this whole spirit think is only a human theary, there could be more like something we havn't even thought about XD

    Death is Ultimate and theres nothing you can do, its an irreversible damage. But I don't believe Re-Incarnation doesn't exist. How do you think all of the Giacinto Vittorino's made it though 4 centuries?

    I belive in death because, really, no matter what you will die, even if you did go to some other life form after death, you would have had to die in the first place.
    [not entirly sure if that made any sense XD]
    I would say exactly what you said.
