What do you think happens when you die?

-----kind of off topic but an intresting question i need to bring up.

dont think its crazy but im just fishing for answers, anyone else in here have a family member contact them in a dream before death? that's the only reason i believe in an afterlife of some kind. but i was 8, and they say sometimes young children have a way of knowing those kinds of things...
 
you're not crazy. Alot people have premonitions of loved ones before they die. Its probably more common than you think. Its along the same lines of when you're thinking about calling someone and the person calls you up instead. If you believe in a soul than its not a hard reach to believe that a psychic connection can exist between two people. Whether these things are just coincidences or not is in the eye of the beholder. Fortunately I've never had anyone close to me die so I can't speak from experience.
 
Nothing. When the neural activity that you call "life" stops, nothing happens. You are just gone.
You have no more thoughts, feelings, or anything.
There will not even be nothing, because you will no longer be able to observe that nothing.

This Happy and Optimistic thought of the day was brought to you by truth.
The Truth Hurts.
 
[quote name='x0thedeadzone0x'] I believe that this planet was made for human beings to enjoy, a chance to survive and have a wonderful and happy life.[/quote]

What about those billions of other planets? Why were they made?

Keep in mind that we can't even detect practically any of them.
 
see, i don't know how i feel about the whole afterlife thing...
like.. i have personally seen ghosts, so that kinda puts a spin on the whole afterlife thing. because if ghosts exist then there must be some sort of afterlife..
and when my grandmother died i was kind of upset about it because i felt that i wasn't there enough before she died, like i didn't really show that i cared. and i mean, i felt like that for a while after she died. but then when i actually talked to someone about it for the first time, i had a dream about her that nite in which i was able to tell her how much i did love her and that i was sorry i wasn't there more. now, i understand how one can say that i only had the dream because i just talked about it that day, but i mean i had been thinking about it for a while but only when i verbalized it did i have a dream about it.. so maybe she was able to hear it or something and then came to me in my sleep.
so i don't know, maybe we're ghosts until we feel that we can rest or something.. but i know that i definitly believe in ghosts but i'm just not too sure what happens after that..

Have u really seen ghosts? Seriously, I wanna hera about the experience...please go on
 
The concept of time, is silly.

Its just a box, built around us, to keep everyone from living.

You think everything that is told to you, is valuable and neccessary. Every experience is unique to you. Do you really think that you are a tool?

So you really think you were born to work? To play? To do a specific task??

What do you think?

Why does there have to be something? A goal, is like the concept of time.
The same way a highway is, and mathematics.

We are taught, and have been taught, that everything is logical. This, after being told that there is some omnipotent being, that uses illogical, uncalculable MAGIC.
What are we to do??

Stay confused, and follow the flock.

Thats why I'm a DRONE. Only on the outside, though.
Close your eyes. Close your ears. Don't concentrate on anything. Free your deity, from its wonderful dream.
The vessel, isn't a vessel at all. It isn't here to take you anywhere.

Work out at the gym everyday. Eat right. Don't smoke. Don't drink.
What will this get you?? A free token, in the game, called life.

Your player is just that. YOU are the hub. We are all like supernodes, or relay racers. Passing the conscienceness baton, or packet, if you will, to the whole commune, imagined as our world.

Have fun. Do what you want, no matter what. Starting from scratch, is the beginning of your acceptance, of what you are.....nothing.
Nothing made everything, so don't feel down.

Don't confuse wrong and right. These are concepts, like the fence of time.
Confounding you, to serve a useless purpose. Making the game much easier, for the already adept players, to advance.

Even though they are advancing to nothing more, than the same conclusion, they're game has been much better played than those who allow them to control their lives.

You are GOD. We are one. You can't argue this. It is common sense!
