Death - what happens after?

I cannot imagine what it would be like to "live" in eternal "blackness" and darkness if you understand what I'm trying to say. At first I did think that when we do die, it's sort of like when we sleep, we aren't conscious of it, but what we see is black, however, that just can't go on forever, because there will have to be an end sometime. I then realised this cannot be the solution, something must have to happen.
This brings me onto religion - heaven and hell, I personally don't believe in hell, so lets just use heaven as an example - when you die, you remain yourself and live in the world of your dreams for eternity - really? I respect other people's religions but that honestly just sounds like a load of bullshit to me, the outcome has to be something more logical.
This brought me to re-incarnation, something more rational that I can really see happening, although, I don't believe in the religious belief that if you behave in a past life, you will be re-incarneted into something good like a human, if the theory is in fact correct, it would most likely be random!
The theory I have brought myself to believe in the, most strangely enough is that we live in a time loop, I believe that once we die, we literally return back to the time we were in our mother's wombs and we live our lives again, in the same year, same time, and that everything that happens to us now, has probably happened before, but obviously we cannot remember it. For some reason it seems like a very rational explanation, although we will never know, which is why the subject is a very popular debate topic.

Please quote me with your own views and theories, it is very interesting once you think about it logically for a while.

You don't live though, that's the thing. Death is the ending to life, once you die you are no longer living.


Why not a scientific approach to death? Nothing leads that there is an afterlife, so how about when we die we simply stop living.


lol, yeah the happily ever after thing is kinda overdone. Another issue for Heaven would be what happens to those, who excuse me, had mental problems through life, like split personalities.


Doesn't work though. Our population has increased so rapidly it would vastly outweigh "old people". Not to mention the lack of evidence for reincarnation.


How is that more rational than at death we stop living? Time doesn't work that way at all, any physics teacher will tell you that.


More rational than at death to stop living? Death is simply the end to life, not blackness, not anything. Any type of consciousness you have is only due to your brain, which at death, ceases to function.

In my opinion, it doesn't really matter what happens after you die. Nothing or something, I wouldn't care. I just want to live my life and be able to finish it without regrets and not be scared of death.

:ha!:

I was discussing this with my friend and we came with up with loads of things.
I mean maybe there is a heaven and hell, If so you would spend an entirety of happiness or pity. But what if there is no heaven and hell?

I have heard of things like once you die you become a bird.. Because apparently at every funeral there will be a bird looking down at you. People think that is the person, just turned into a bird.
But personally I believe you become someone else. I mean, you won't remember anything at all. It will be your life. You won't know. I mean you and I could of been in the war for example and died. We will just never know.

I absolutely hate the thought of, an entirety of bleak blackness and darkness, it just makes me feel weird. I really hope that isn't the way it is.

But really enjoy the life your living, I mean it isn't everyday you are the person you are. So enjoy it!

The point of this thread is also to discuss irrational theories, life is a wonderful thing filled with many possibilities, science may back up a theory, but that doesn't mean it definitely is 100% true, especially when we talk about our conciseness after death. The point I'm trying to get across is, NO ONE KNOWS, science may back up the facts but you cannot deny that no one knows what happens after you die, because no one is there to tell you, which is why I'm not going to bother reading members' posts about how science backs up this etc. etc. because you don't know, and the likelihood is that most of the members that do this have literally just googled this stuff, but anyway

Well the ideas you had are as good as certainly not the case due to the lack of evidence.

Why do you think that the lack of a supernatural explanation means an entirety of blackness? If your mind ceases to exist(which it does at death) there'll be nothing to see, hear, smell, imagine or otherwise envisage that blackness with. There isn't even any blackness anyway... if you want an easy explanation, try to imagine sleeping. A little like that.

NO ONE KNOWS, PERHAPS MUDKIP IS A GOD AND A FLYING SPAGHETTI MONSTER FLOATING AROUND IN SPACE USING SUPER-WIFI, WHO KNOWS??!?!? AAAHHHHHHHHH

See how stupid that is? Irrational really is a good choice of word.

...the idiocracy in this to my post is one of the worst things I have read.

look at the studies on life and death experiences most people who have died on the hospital bed around 1300 cases have had the same seeing the white light tunnel etc.

their brains had shut down making it almost impossible for this to be a just a dream or brain playing tricks etc. Just that all of them had seen the same thing.

Though this doesn't mean that its proven to mean their is an afterlife but i truly believe their is something after death (Christian)

The fact that neither of the people that groaned me actually refuted my post speaks for itself.
