DEATH

[Major. Rudiger]

Whats after death? Is there a heaven, hell...


I think theres nothing at the end. Its just black....

[Theodore Bone]

Black, is black the color you see when there is nothing? Nothing is a void of something and black is somethng. There is always something just because you're body ends doesn't mean you're mind does.

[Major. Rudiger]

I only said black to give an example. But dosnt your mind belong to your body?

[Kobbot 401]

I believe that death is just and end to life. Its like playing an arcade machine on your last quarter, after you die, theres no more you can do except save your high score (your achivments in life) and leave the arcade for good.

I don't care. I'll be dead. My brain will rot. I as you know me, will no longer exist.

I personally want my body frozen, even though I don't care about dying, and you might laugh; but it would be cool to be awakened hundreds of years later if by chance technology has advanced to such abilities.

Death would be like all those years before you were born.

I think a far more interesting question is does it matter what happens after you die? And should that effect how we live?

[October Revolution]

To the indervidual no i don't think it does matter what happens to you after you've died becasue it is none of your concern but to people you know your families and friends ofcourse it does because it can give them piece of mind and belif that you are happy wherever you are, be it heaven hell or in limbo.
It should only affect our life if we are concerned with harming other people if not live how you want.

[Quixotic]

There's nothing after it.

Nope!
Once I discover I have a terminal illness, I'm going on a shooting spree!!!


Edit: Really, that's a joke. Though events after my death may be of limited significance insofar as my not being there, my personal conduct up 'til the moment of my death does concern me, and the knowledge of my effect on the world after my death does concern me as long as I am alive.

Edit II: I want a statue.

Hehe.. Much comedy going on here...

Anyways, I think it does matter for most what happens after death. However, I am intrigued by the thought of not having a brain to think with. You know, whatever becomes of us after death, our brain won't operate anymore. And think of it, all that you have ever known, ever learned, ever felt, ever thought, is your brain. All that is you, is your brain. EVERYTHING could simply be your brain, because the brain controls you (and is you) and is what you believe.

However, after death our brain will not be functioning anymore, and if we would transform into some other matter (such as a soul or something like that) we would not have the ability to communicate with any brain - therefore no ability to communicate with anything at all. Without our brain there is nothing, really. Without our brain we are merely shadows. The thought is, well, radical. However, it is the truth. Without a brain we are merely a theory in some persons mind.

[Major. Rudiger]

And thats why you should be good and help as many people so you stay in there thoughts.

[Pedro Alonso Lopez]

Impossible to know, I am not averse to the possibiliy of something. Not anything man made religion thought us but perhaps something. It would be awfully vain to assume it is nothing but awfully reasonable to do so.

[Kobbot 401]

Here are some quotes I found on death. There are a lot more to this too.
"Death is the only inescapable, unavoidable, sure thing. We are sentenced to die the day we're born."
-Gary Mark Gilmore

"He who dies with the most toys is, nonetheless, still dead."
-Anon.

"Once the game is over, the king and the pawn go back in the same box."
-Italian Proverb

"To fear death, my friends, is only to think ourselves wise, without being wise: for it is to think that we know what we do not know. For anything that men can tell, death may be the greatest good that can happen to them: but they fear it as if they know quite well that it was the greatest of evils. And what is this but that shameful ignorance of thinking that we know what we do not know?"
-Socrates, from Plato's Apology

"One death is a tragedy. A million deaths is a statistic."
-Josef Stalin

[redstar2000]

One of the old Greeks said it...

Why should I fear death? Where I am, death is not. Where death is, I am not.

[Invader Zim]

Death is death, the absense of life.

I don't suppose there is heaven or hell, or any form of conciousness.

It would be awfully vain to assume it is nothing but awfully reasonable to do so.

I would rather be vain than without reason.

[Dyst]

It would be awfully easy to do so, I think. Not that I don't think it will be "nothing" but considering, we have no idea what nothing really is. Many mathematicians and scientists think of nothing as the same as everything, because both is "invulnerable".

[Roses in the Hospital]

There's only one way to find out...In a morbid sort of way I'm quite looking forward to it. My only regret is that as an athist I'm not gonna get a chance to tell all the religious types I debate with "I told you so..."

[trex]

When you die, the electrical currents that ran through your brain were not destroyed. Matter cannot be destroyed, but is recycled. Know all those storeis about "out of body" experiences? I believe that after we die, our souls are the brain currents, the important part, of us, but where will the electricity go? It will probably be sucked to it's equivalent of gravity, which I will call Heaven.

Some define Heaven as "being one with God". Well, if the universe was started from Him, and we returned to Him, wouldn't we once again be one with Him?

[Major. Rudiger]

But can God be another word for the Unverise. The Unverise Created you. The Unverise is part of everything and everyone.... And so on...

See the problem with my theory is spirits ( i mean Ghost, i think there real). Like if my theory says theres nothing at the end then theres no such thing as spirits. But this made be think about Brain Waves and electrons or protains thingys. Can all the spirit activitry be like brain wave ecos or election just lying around. If you get what im say, can you help me makes this theory incorparte Ghost or spirit (whatever you want to call them)?

[Dyst]

Interesting theories flying around.

What is after death? The answer is simple: death.

[Dyst]

That was a stupid answer and it doesn't make sense. Think before you write...

[Major. Rudiger]

whats death?

[CamusforU]

There is no real definitive answer on what happens to you after you die. I believe that there is definitely something. I enjoy philosophies such as existentialism and nihilism but I do not agree with their views of isolation and alienation. It is my firm belief that if you are a good person, do good in the world, and try to teach others to do the same, regardless of your religious beliefs, you will be rewarded in eternal paradise. If there is not God at all, what does it matter? You will be dead and you will have no idea, so why not leave the world better than you found it? I would much rather believe in something and have it not be true than believe in nothing and be eternally punished.

[Major. Rudiger]

You sound like my grade 10 religion teacher, he said the samething to me.

i know, are you saying we die again? what's after life easy life. stfu.

[refuse_resist]

People will speculate what happens, but we'll never know what exactly happens to us after we die as it has already been proven.
