Death.
 

I dont really know exactly what I'm asking here.... But, recently I'v been accpetnig death more as, not just the end of life, but something else. I dont know exactly, I just think, After Religions preaching about souls, Heaven, Hell etc. It all must come from some sort of origin of fact, I mean, obviously, there isnt a city in the sky holiding every single good person who ever died. And there Isnt An eternal Torture for the Bad. But What Is your opinions of what actually happens?

I'v always thought that it was some kind of ressurection, but i guess thats more wishful thinking of not wanting to die. But there might be different levels of what happens after death, in comparison to peoples acceptances of dieing. Like, If someone was murdered, in the prime of life, and wanted to continue living, they may be stuck somewhere continually watching the living, and not being able to anything, Which would Be Shit. I dunno.

But also, If Death Is Just the end, Its not exactly that bad, your not living in torment remembering what you had, yuor just gone.

Somethin makes me think thats not the case though....

Your Thoughts?

It does come from somewhere...there's this theory that if you can imagine or think up something, praying, etc..then there is a realm where it exists..i believe that when we die, we are not really dead, but reborn into a different form and don't necessarily have bodies like we do here, like we are used too. Our energy is constantly regrouping and moving infinately through time and space. i don't know and i'm not going to say we go here or heaven or anything like that, because i think those assumptions are stupid. But i think we carry on,and maybe not as a single being either, but kind of like a whole unit... functioning as one, like the earth does. Theres a task for everything.

I believe...

Once you die thats it your gone, you just cease to exist.

Nothing more, nothing less.

I see what you mean fluidmoon, sort of a gaia energy? If yuo get me.

I Think that theres probably different levels after death, if you dont just die and your gone. Sort of a spiritual thing.

i dont know if there's anything after death, and i dont think its possble for anyone else to

once, somebody told me the afterlife is what you want it to be.....but it got me thinking.....its not logical.....like before you were born...there was nothing for you.....just blank no state of mind....i mean it wasnt even a black out........when u close ur eyes....cant even explain it....so when you die wut exactly promises you a state of mind......or at all to be able to see the living...i for one wish that we arent gone for every....that one day the world will amount to nothing......but then i think....wtf why does it matter why stress over something i have no control over so i just live my life day by day thankfull that i wake up everyday simply becuz.......life is not promising......u are not promised anything

i dont believe in hell, but if i did...
i think that if there is a hell, it would be a sinner's paradise, not eternal suffering
why would satan torture the people who think like him and could possibly help him achieve whatever evil plans he has...

exactly......never thought of it like that...but i guess its just away to scare one that is into a lot of mischieve nah mean?.......

Death is a spiritual journey to the next stage of existance.
Upon which we leave our physical mass and grow to an elevated form. Its not something to be feared, instead death should be respected for its symbolic qualitys.

Like OMB has posted before, I practice the Bushido (the code of the Samurai). I walk through life knowing that I can die at any given moment, and that I am ready to accept it. Although unaware of what lies ahead after death, I'm prepared to find out.

jesus said we shouldnt fear death because it is a rebirth into another form of life, i think christians warped his teachings and jesus actually was preaching about the levels of life. he said we live on infinately so maybe we do like the ppl before me have been saying, and our energy moves to a different time of space or maybe our energy inhabits other things.

You're basing your theories of 'Satan' off of what you've heard.. which is mostly religions.. more notably, Christians.

Christians just want people to believe in that shit, so people will follow them. It makes sense doesn't it? "If you lie and cheat and steal you'll be suffered for eternity." So what do you do? Not lie, cheat, or steal.

It's all bullshit.

Good luck with that..

I think about death a lot.. and I don't really know why. But, man, it's like, I don't want to find out what happens after people die. I haven't exactly been a "great" person.. but I'm not really religious either. But it's like.. I just don't want everything to end after 90 or so years. I want something to keep going.

Whatever though.

I guess I'll find out later..

Lol thank you. :)

Really though, when I do pass away I'll know that it was my time.

Word to that.

I think what lies beyond death is something that we can't fathom. Either eternal nothingness, or something never seen, heard of, or experienced before.

Niether thing is bad, and thats why I wouldnt mind dying at any time. Being afraid of death is just stupid. If death were to come my way I would actually welcome it.

so if someone held a gun to your head....you'd smile?

Well if it was just one guy i'd try to stop him... Thatd be easy. Its not like ill try to die whenever I can... Its like, if it was more than one guy about to shoot me id try to fight them but probably get shot... But it wouldnt bother me.

Well we said we'd welcome death, not invite it. So it's not like I'd be happy with a gun to my head, it's more like telling my attacker that if it his true goal to end my life, then so be it.

Welcoming death? That concept is invalid unless you have fulfilled your purpose on the earth. Personally I welcome long life, constant learning & elevation.

Death is a concept one should be at peace with in its nature of unknown fate. But to welcome it will only lessen your will to survive. And survival is key to achieving goals in order to leave your legacy as a human being.

Damn, you could be the next Socrates (the real one)...

Philosophizing shit...

id vote you for president.....you make more sence than fuckin bush.........

I fuckin hate Nos. He's stooooopid.


Death is bad and life is good. Me>him

I am actually near positive now that death isnt the end, and i have no idea why.

Its a ridiculous thing to believe in firmly, being that no living person that we can communicate with, can tell us what happens after death, its physically impossible right now. But yeh, what is the point of us being here, if all we have is 100 years if we'r very lucky. In the timescale of the planet thats an insanely short amount of time.

Death is inevitible...so theres really no point in being afraid of it...its not like you can change whats gonna happen...that shits a given...who knows maybe this life is just a practice run for what lies ahead.

its really thought provoking, because when you think about it, and the acceptance of the fact 'you will die', you kinda can't help but you think about destiny and the whole concept of 'everything happens for a reason' sort of thing....because if infact there is something beyond death, then maybe we're all here for a reason, and where ever our minds and memory go afterwards, we continually can backtrack and somewhat re-live and recognize that life was actually important....from certain point of views, you know....thinking about this is cool

and, i'm going to share probly the dumbest ideal in religioin

how is it justified, with christian belief, that you can live a life pure of heart, soul and mind, be helpful and kind to everyone, live the most honest and positive life you can live....but if you don't accept god and belief EVERYTHING, read the bible and go to church every sunday....you will not be accepted in the afterlife.....i find that to be utter bullshit, word

I always thought it was if you are a true christian, you would end up doing all that good shit anyway.

exactly, so i don't understand why you have to listen to a man preach from a book i can read myself, tell me to do things i can figure by my self, and dish out a donation so i can keep coming back?

wtf eh

Whatchu tryna say?

But yeah, I am always scared that when I die, I cease to exist. It's scary as fuck to me to think I can't think, feel, perceive or in general even know that i'm dead if that indeed happens. What i'm really scared of though is that I embrace religion because I am scared of its alternative. I sincerely hope that there is something beyond death but if there isn't, I am constantly striving to make myself immortal throughout my society and family remembering me after death.

I hate the concept of death because I know that if there is nothingness afterwards I feel no matter what legacy you make, you can't experience it so there really is no reason not to go on a killing spree because it wouldn't matter what you do. I'd love for there to be a form of consciousness after death, but there is always the fear that everyone goes to some horrible place like Hell and there is no Heaven or higher plain other than suffering, or else somehow when we get buried we are conscious and stare at the lids of our coffin for eternity even if our brain has shut down. Shit like that is annoying, thinking that you could be trapped in the confines of your body and unable to do anything but think for eternity.

"Sleep is the cousin of death."

Thats what I picture death as. Just a long sleep... you arent concious of when you fall asleep or when you are asleep, its probably the same.

That Just Got Me thinking. I remember someone raising a point about your life flashing before your eyes when you die, and what if right now you are jut living that flash.

What if right now we are dead. We are asleep, or however you think of it. This could be one of many 'dreams' that we can never wake up from.

I'm pretty terrible at putting down what im thinknig into words at this time in the morning, but yeh.

that's a pretty strange thought, weird....but there's really nothing you can do, and that's also disturbing...like, if you are dead, life is flashing, then maybe you might die soon, but what can you do, its like, a friggin cycle of madness....ahhh

When you think about it. Re-living your life in the flash before death is everlasting. Because it all leads up to the point when you die, and your life flashes again, and you re-live it.

^ Dawg, that scared the fuckin' shit out of me.

so then, if you say it like that, why are we getting scared of death?

but props, that just blew me like, whoa

The only plausible reason to be scared of death is becuase it is unknown.

It's the same basic principle of someone bieng scared of the dark. ou dont know whats there. There is nothing to tell us what happens when we die, therefore people fear it. They try to stay alive for as long as possible to escape the unknown.

Thats why Make Up is so succesful. Women wear make up to look younger. Its all psychological, the younger you are the further away from death you are, if you look younger, you feel younger, therefore feeling further away from death.

ight did any of u hear about a crash that happed at chatfield high school 3 years ago my friend died and came back i think a day later and he remembers what death is liike he said the friend that didnt make it showed him one of his best friends rooms and when my homie evan came back he asked his friends bf if her room looked like this and that and she started cryin and asked how did he know that and he said that his friend showed him.

but i forgot his name so yea and he said vison of death is like when u wake up wan its kinda blurry but still clear.

That made perfect sense.

lol are u bein a smart ass or for real? :huh:

I had to read it like 5 times before i understood what he was talking about.
