No. I think you die and dassit.

People are just too delusional/self absorbed to accept that this meager existence is all they're gonna get.

I don't like doing this.....

But it's comforting to people to think there's more after this life. That if they didn't get to do all that they wanted that they still get more time after they die. That their "soul" will get to wander and still see.

When you die that is completely it. Game over. So do all that you can and whatever you want while you're here.
i always scream @ the way y'all say this so matter of factly

As if y'all have access to information we don't


....and this is part where I get disrespectful.


:udontlookok: there's obviously some disconnect in information when you have one side of people that believe in heaven, angels, golden gates and sugarplum fairies and one side that looks at SCIENCE and it just doesnt CLICK.
boy I'm not even a BIBLE girl bdndhdkd

I just... all the unexplained mess when it comes to human existence and you believe we just... die and the energy we radiate does as well?

On what grounds


It must be pretty terrifying to have always thought there's more after you're in the ground.
That you're born with a purpose beyond anything even if dont actually DO anything or make a mark that will be seen once you're gone.

I have struggled with that idea because it is scary to accept mortality but this realization finally gave me a lot of appreciation for life. This doesn't mean I have the answers, I just had to face my darkest fears. I guess it is also a part of me having a fear of getting older and not living the perfect life I imagined when I was younger. I can't worry too much about time I have wasted (I shouldn't focus on regrets and know there is more time), on the other hand there is also a deadline. You can't have a bonus round in heaven, the time is now.

Its a hard pill to swallow at first but it makes you appreciate everything a lot more while you're here. I think its different from me and someone that was brought up with JESUS and the BIBLE all their life. Trying to take away someone's religion is taking away a part of their identity, mindset and a lot of their morals/values go out the window because the only thing that prevented them from doing certain things is the fear of hell and revoking of their pass into Heavans McDonalds. Its like... who am I and why am I even still alive? whats the point?
and then they see all these people living these good lives carefree while they stress breaking their backs for another dollar to feed their family.
Having the thought of an afterlife in place has its positives.  More positives than negatives. tbh. Some just use it to twist things and promote hate.

I agree with what you've been saying in here

I think I'm slowely getting there (after a year of existential crisis). To have some faith again that there is more. Also with recent events that were too bizarre to be true (synchronicities). But I'm glad I learned more about atheism to be more down to earth. I feel a lot more appreciation and freedom.

CHOKE

Deja Vu 

Smells that trigger u to try to remember something that u forgot 

We've def been here already 

Hatsumomo

There is hope for whoever is among the living, because a live dog is better off than a dead lion.+For the living know* that they will die,+ but the dead know nothing at all,+ nor do they have any more reward,* because all memory of them is forgotten.+Also, their love and their hate and their jealousy have already perished, and they no longer have any share in what is done under the sun.+

Y'all ever think about what could happen if we get collectively killed off like the dinosaurs did? What's gonna happen after us? Will human life be reborn? Will it be something stronger or weaker? Will they have ANY  knowledge of our previous existence or will we be forgotten forever?

:udontlookok:

I always think about how many other "human" cycles there might have been in the past and what history/knowledge was lost.

Talk about a reset for real

I don't have a definitive opinion on this but I wonder if our spirits are transferred to another planet when we die.

Like, some sort of reincarnation into a new life on some unreachable exoplanet or something. Maybe that's why we can't reach certain parts of the universe—-we're just not meant to.

I remember yrs ago i was watchin this lady say this but it was like we reincarnate into new life on other worlds, into planets, stars.

Sumn 'bout evrything bein alive nd bein conscious

Our bodies are created by cells & shit, but where does our actual consciousness originate?

The universe is VAST, and so much of it has yet to be explored. Hell, like 90% of the ocean hasn't even been touched.

I think things are a lot more complex than us just being born and dying.
!!!!!!!!!

Like!!!! What was the reason?!

The main thing that gives me that vibe is dreams. Why can nobody explain them?

How does our brain just walk off and do it's own thing and come back when our body wakes up. Woo!

L0NZ.

but at the same time.....fuck.

like sometimes I feel like some coincidences are too much for chance, and that something else happened. I'll entertain the thought but never be fully convinced


Hatsumomo

The real question is if the creator, whatever or whomever designed the universe and mankind has any plans to resurrect the dead. And if so, when and how? Will everyone be resurrected or does it depend on how you lived your life? Life is clearly a gift despite all that's happened in our time. We were meant to enjoy life and it doesn't seem fair that in an instant we can be snuffed out.  Death isn't the end. Not by a long shot.

It doesn't hurt to read scientific explanations every now and then. I used to think I could sense when someone is looking but this makes a lot more sense. The brain is complex and genius.

https://bigthink.com/philip-perry/why-is-it-you-can-sense-when-someones-staring-at-you

Another answer could be confirmation bias. We remember only the times we turned around and someone was staring (or appeared to be), and not the times they weren't. And that weird, tingly sensation? It's psychological and emanates from the thought of being stared at, not the physical act itself.
