what are you views, and what do you think about the possibility that when you die you are eternal nothingness. In the sense that when you die humanity is extinct for all of eternity, and that this eternal nothingness is 100% incoherent

I was in the petting zoo, or as I like to call it, the touch me zoo this afternoon. All the animals were retarded. Some lady was breast feeding her baby on a bench nearby, an obvious signal. I sat down uncomfortably close to her and yawned my arm around her shoulder. In her attempt to squirm away, she dropped her baby on the ground. I pretended I was concerned for a second, then I punted it over the fence. She still didn't seem interested in me. Whatever.

 
well think about this. what was it like before u were born? before u were born u like didnt exist and it wasnt black. it was kinda like how sleeping is i guess. so when u die, either that happens or u have a spirit ant go to heaven or hell or wherever. but i dont think ull just be in black area forever

being conscious is humanitys tragic flaw. Iv been strugeling with this for a long long time now.. what happens after i die. The more i study other cultures in other times who all belive diffrent things the more i realize that none of them can be right because of the vast diversity of possibilities. Ancient greeks didnt belive in a heaven and hell, they just belived in an underworld. To them death was not somthing to lookforward to or embrace. when you were dead, no mater who you are or what you did during your life, you enter into an eternity of existing non existance. Romans belived much the same thing. Ancient mayans belived that when you died you went to an underworld as well. but to the mayans it wasnt a grim existing nonexistance, it was somthing to be enjoyed. Then you get into diffrent religions, and variations within religions which i dont know enough about to discuss. I personaly belive that the problem doenst rest in what happesn after death, but that we are aware that we will die. Tales of afterlives in all cultures are just thariputic myths. They put us at ease because we are afraid of not understanding whats happens in death, Because we can not imagin nothingness. Humans have an inate urge to know the future, and we invent stories to satisfy that urge. Once we die we simply stop.

im just gonna try not to think about it, even though sumtimes i do, and see what happens

once your done, your done. there will be nothingness for you. i guess i belive in your spirit, so in a sense the essence of YOU will still live on, but not in a consious form or anything

i agree with apple too, correct me if im wrong but it seems like you were basicilly saying some people become religious because they are simply afraid of death, which i definetely agree with

You rot in the ground. the end.

I pretty much agree with Apple, I have spent quite a while contemplating about this and I can't just picka side since there is so much diversity on this matter. The existentialists of the early 20th century described the fear of death and the unknown pretty well...an whoever said to read Sophie's World...great book, but it doens't really give much insight into this, it actually just proves that one cannot be sure what happens.

i hope harvey bans you just so i can piss on your digital grave.

I think I will be in heaven on the clouds and the clouds will be powder and I will be skiing for eternity. And we will all live or not live happyly ever after :)

*~!Ski or die!~*

*~!Live to ski!~*

Over time, most people experience life involving love, suffering, compassion and an unspeakable drive for something new...For me, theres skiing, nothing more nothing less and it encompasses everything everyday im out there. - Pep
