What do you think happens to us when we die? Do you believe in heaven and hell? Do you believe in reincarnation? Do you think we simply cease to exist? Do we go to the great comedy forum in the sky where we post for eternity? Thoughts about what happens to us when we die..

Dear Watson posted:I’m hoping I just end. I’m terrified that my consciousness will create an incredibly long fever dream during our last moments. You know something like Jacobs ladder. I used to have this daydream that I missed my own death somehow and was living some kind of solipsistic afterlife that I was not aware of. Like my brain activity in the last few minutes of my life somehow surpassed the constraints of time and what was perhaps 7 minutes of activity was perceived as an eternity by me... or just an endless string of time where I think I am still alive.

endlessmonotony posted:What happens in the afterlife? This goes back to my whole theory that I am already dead and somehow missed it. Anyway, if hell is but the absence of God, I can't think of a good argument for how we are not already in hell.

Moon Atari posted:I bet that daydream would be even more compelling if rather than missing your death you had clear memories of experiencing it yet are still apparently alive. For instance, if at age 17 you had made a suicide attempt that should have been extremely damaging even in the event of its failure, but then you woke up the next day in your bed completely unscathed. Especially if your bed was nowhere near your final location the night before. If you were sure you did the thing and didn't hallucinate, dream or memory error it up, since those don't ever involve real pain and as crystal clear a recollection. I bet it would be especially compelling if there was some concrete evidence that bed wasn't your final location, for instance if your car remained in the distant location you had left it in with no realistic path to you making it home and into bed without it. All that would for sure make you question your reality, I imagine. I feel like I am tripping right now.

Agent Escalus posted:I once worked with a guy who, on the third or fourth day of training, casually brought up that years prior he had clinically died and been resuscitated twice from misadventures (once was drowning, I think) - and it changed him, big time. Or should I say, the first time did it, the stuff he saw and experiences while he was gone. He wouldn't go into specifics because "a lot of it was personal and hard to describe"* but talking to him about it wasn't like talking to a believer; it was like talking to someone who knows something, who (pardon the pun) lived through a major event. This would be one thing - as would the fact that those who also worked there for years with him before it happened would easily and readily testify how everything about him changed after he returned to his daily life - but the real kicker, I think, is when it happened the second time. He said that it was pretty much the same thing as before. Kind of akin to when you visit a city you've never been to, and then go back years later, the fundamentals of the place that make it what it is are all still there. That's super cool and made me have nice thoughts. Thanks for sharing.

GreatGreen posted:It’s hard to imagine an afterlife when death means losing your physicality. What kind of eternity could exist for any entity without a physical body, without sensory organs, without any biological needs to satisfy? Life is a cascade of innumerable parallel and interweaving streams of tension and relief, ebb and flow, desire and satiation, almost all of which are based either directly or indirectly on having a physical body with needs. What is left once we have no needs to fulfill? So, basically you are saying that you do not presume to speculate about the afterlife because the human mind isn’t capable of understanding it. Fair enough. pop fly to McGillicutty posted:I've said since I was a young kid getting beaten by my dad (the Christian) that when I die, if God is real, I'm punching Him in His face for this hosed up poo poo. I assume He knows already and is cool with it. I’ll be right in line behind you.

Ocean Book posted:consciousness is a giant blob of spirit that little blobs separate from in order to experience material reality like a roller coaster ride and then at the end your spirit returns to the big blob. little bits are always breaking off to experience different perspectives and different realities. You should reach Baruch Spinoza.

Moon Atari posted:I like that one because it solves the problem of not wanting to cease to exist entirely while also knowing that an eternity limited to my own consciousness would be unbearable. Plus it also provides motivation to act more kindly or moral towards all the other little blobs of consciousness, without relying on the threat of post-death judgement, reward or punishment. Instead the negative or positive consequence to you that results from your actions towards the other little blobs is your actions towards them: since their experience is ultimately your experience too. You and Ocean Book are describing pantheism popularized by 17th century philosopher Baruch Spinoza who outlined these ideas in his book Ethics.

What if i never cease to exist because time is an infinite cycle on multiple dimensions instead of something linear? What if there are infinite me's across multiple dimensions and everything that could happen, is happening, has happened, and will happen is all happening right now and for eternity? + reincarnation.

Ocean Book posted:no one else can give you spiritual truths, it’s like reading a book about a concert. You have to go live it. the only thing I can offer you is you have to be open to discovery and also ok with finding nothing and ok with being wrong and ok with looking stupid and ok with feeling stupid. if you question everything with thoughts of confirmation bias or magical thinking you won’t find anything. Nice post. For the record, I don't think anyone here is asking for spiritual truths to be given to them though. We are just sharing ideas here -sometimes seriously, sometimes to be funny, and sometimes incoherently--if you feel like getting off your pedestal and joining us.

You know what I love? When people do something lovely and stupid to someone else and then act surprised when it has lovely repercussions. LOL. Constantly being called by other posters' names and using that as excuse to come after a poster who has no loving idea what you are talking about is ridiculous.

YeahTubaMike posted:I sincerely hope there's no such thing as reincarnation. I don't want to be reborn into some hosed up overbearing weird family that makes me feel guilty for masturbating or something. I like the idea that you reincarnate until you learn all the things you come here to learn and then you are done- return to the infinite whatever. I am completely and thoroughly repelled by the idea of being embalmed. Just throw my body into the ground and cover me up with dirt. I'm good with it. If I get a bougie option, cremate me, and infuse my ashes with the rootball of a tree and plant me somewhere. As for the DMT/harder drug issue -- it is your mind your tampering with-- you are smart to be cautious.

It'd be cool if hell existed and the rest of us good expired folk that are no longer bound by space and time could just watch what goes on down there like it was a primetime television drama. I'm just saying it'd be a cool way to pass the time on a Thursday evening.
