Beliefs on the afterlife

[fireball]

i believe ill find out when i get there, as there is no way of knowing what is on the other side.

my whole purpose of life is to live with no regrets and experience everything that i want to, and when i die there will be someone to take my place and carry on.








when i get to the otherside i'll call JRandom and gloat about all the ladies

Thta's just class! But no-one ever lost money under-estimating the stupidity of the average American.

When a friend died,his partner was taken by her sister to buy a new black top for the funeral,she wasn't into the idea,her sister was a little pissed off over the time taken to suss out a top.The guys partner grabbed a top randomly,said this will do,turned out it was low cut and sexy,they both looked skywards and said (deceased)get it above the gutter.

And when my wife and myself visited the partner shortly after the funeral,we were walking to our car,the day was fine,after talking about things relating to the funeral and hassles getting casket into the home,the girls were hit with water spots,not me and I was beside them,they both thought fucken seagulls,but none were around,no one was hosing the garden or cars,really strange,as if he was saying I'm fine.

Do I believe in the afterlife?Was brought up believing in such things,so will sit on the fence.

I could think of worse fates than being haunted by a lesbian ghost gloating about sex in the afterlife.

Death is but the door to another existance. To refuse to accept is to deny the obviouse. That there is a 'nothingness' for want of a better word, is not only illogical but science can not show such a state. All things are transformed, mutated, changed etc. This is the Bhuddist basis of reincarnation. It is the essence of life and death:change The body that you have now is not the one that you were born with. Every single cell is different. But there is more to life than mere cells. The one thing sets the animal kingdom above the plants is consciousness. We are 'aware' as are all those of the animal kingdom. It's the ‘degree’ of awareness that sets us apart.

To deny the fundamental truths of life and its complexity is to acknowledge that life and all its myiad of surroundings is but an accident. The complexity of cell division that produces an oak from an acorn to the geometry of planetary orbits nuclear fusion of stars and the laws of physics is proof of some kind of planning and by the very nature of planning a creator.

In our ignorance we worship and kill each other in the mistaken belief that 'our' religion is the right religion and all others are wrong but what we fail to see is what they all have in common, One God that is love, forgiveness and a belief in a better place than what we have at the moment. If only we could understand that we are all one species made up of multi coloured hues and not a culture or of a nation, we could all live in paradise. I do.

I believe in taking action when challenged.

I believe in free will and freedom of choice and I believe that is what we all individually have.

I believe we are free to live our lives any way we wish. However we are not free from the consequences of those choices.

Personally,

I don't believe there is an after life. When you die, you're conciousness ceases to exist and there is nothing more.

Not a too cheery way of looking at death but you can't expect to live forever in one plane of existance or another..

My thoughts too.

If there IS an 'afterlife? - I don't give a rats arse, I'm here to enjoy myself RIGHT NOW, not wait for some mythical 'afterlife'.

That there is a 'nothingness' for want of a better word, is not only illogical but science can not show such a state.

Nor can it show there isn't.
Let's face it...one has to 'go there' to find out, and no-one has ever come back with a full report including pictures.
We all find comfort (if you will) in what we believe and who are we to say to others that this or that is the case?
I live here and now, and when I go I've been good enough to enjoy the rewards of an afterlife, but bad enough to have no regrets if there isn't one.

Is there a refund policy if you miss the flight?


Of course there is a higher power. She got up this morning and went to work and left me with the kids for the day.

well all going well it happens in that order.

[Number One]

been here before and can't be arsed going there again

What I will say is that it astounds me how some posters seem to be almost rabid about their views being accepted as 'true and right' and anyone not agreeing gets ridiculed for not seeing 'sense'

...does it really matter what any of us think...personal choice is best owned in our thoughts and what anyone else 'thinks or knows' is almost irrelevant...whatever floats your boat I say.

[yod]

yeah

lets not discuss anything

shut down the forum i say
