lol yer i woulder what would happen but this about reincarnation i wana know is that if u get reincarnated do you remeber what happen in your past life. coz if reincarnation is real and you dont know what happens in your past life you will never really know what happens when you die...

Being Wiccan I believe in a circle of life.....death opens the way to a new life where we can strive to right the wrongs from our previous life, and in doing so reach a new level of understanding.

And I also believe we are born with the knowledge of our past lives.....it's just at such a sub-concious level we never truly understand or grasp it...it's just what makes us who we are.

I believe if you live a good life then you'll go to Heaven and if you've lived a bad life you'll go to hell.

However, there is just one part of me that thinks when we die we just die. That there is no after life. We are all just dust in the wind.

im half and half on this

one half is the idea that if ur good you go to heaven when u die and if ur bad u go to hell when u die seems reasonable

but then the other half of me just thinks that when u die it is almost like an eternal sleep that u never wake up from.

I beleave that the body is incinerated or buried and left to rot.
Either way the brain is destroyed which means the memorys that made you who you are are gone and as such you no longer exist.
For more about the body's decomposition simply google it.:redbiggri

in most pagan paths, like the wiccan a few posts back, we believe in reincarnation, when we die, we go to a transitional place, akin to the summerland of norse religion. Once we are ready, we come back, in a different time place and life, and start the circle over again.

I think that you go to heaven/hell and live a while before you come back down as something else knowing nothing about your past life. The reason I think this because there will be too many people to die for heaven/hell will hold :p

08-30-2006, 02:20 PM
lol yer i thought that too about people many people in heven and hell too =P

@Aznboi: i can see what your saying but thier has to be an after life we as humans only use like 4% of owr brain so something must happen to the other % when we die.
ps:i will looks at your amv soon, i've seen alittle bit of it and it looks great XD

@Kichimaru_Ryuji: yer i can understand that view and think that 1 makes the most beliveable and maybe true. however if that is so it will be never ending
and in owr sub-concious we may have tens or millions of life and things happening to use but wouldnt owr sub-concious mind overflow with loads and loads of past minds...

i think that sonner or later thier will be a final judgment where God will make the final choices of everyones sins and will judge use to eaither go to heaven or hell and we will stay thier

I dont mean to cause an argument or anything but why would the rest of the brain that is unused be exempt from decay or incineration.

Personaly i cant understand how you came to the conclusion that there is an afterlife based on unused physical parts as i would have thought it was fairly obvious what happens to your mind when you die.

yer i can understand that but i am saying that we still do not understand the full lengths of the brain we dont really know what that part of the brains has effect on owr whole body. also thier is some peoples bodys that does not decompose that have died, i forgot whos body it was but thier was this Saints who died(i forgot the name of him but i learned this in Religuios Education and have seen it with my own eyes) has not decompose and is on display for people to see and help to pray

In my opinion death is and it isnt the end
I don't believe there's is a heaven or hell nor a god or devill (i see religion as a scam), Reincarnation seems to give hope and faith for continuing one’s existence in further lives, Reincarnation could be the fairest of all theories, perfect way of punishing or rewarding the person’s deeds, without viewing God as the ultimate Reality. yet i don't believe in it either.
What i believe right in this moment, is that when we die Nothing happens. Our bodies descompose and we just loose concious of everything, It is proven that we are energy sources and when we die that energy detaches and lifts above evrything upto unknown... This maybe be just part of a circle of life . meaning our energy could provide the existance of another life form.

I have been unable to find human bodys that have been exempt from decomposition apart from mummys the bog men or people who have been cryogenically all of which are created by man and all of which destroy tissue in the case of cryogenics ice forms inside the cells destroying them.Those cells will of course include the ones that form the brain.

That saint sounds interesting however i havent been able to find anything about it on a slight tangent the authenticaty of many relics is doubtfull as people would sell bodyparts stolen from graves to monestrys claiming religious significance such as being a saints knuckles for example.

Conservation of energy states that the total amount of energy (including potential energy) in an isolated system remains constant. In other words, energy can be converted from one form to another, but it cannot be created or destroyed.

The fact is, no one knows if we go to Heaven or Hell...or if we recarnate...but the karma, also called the soul, never dies.

That's exactly my point, like i said before, This maybe be just part of a circle of life . meaning maybe our energy is a source for another life form to live or just accumulate somewhere. who knows?

Interesting question... I, have multi-beliefs (no, I dont believe in multiple gods and whatnot im christian):

Possibilities (I think could be true):
1) the way of the Phoenix: the usual reincarnated thing
2) Is there really a Heaven/Soul Society?: Are you a good or bad kid? if you're good, you go here. If you're bad, you go there.
3) River Styx: pay me the toll and you cross to the after-life (hi, hades)
4) After-Life (eygptian-style): gruesome, I dont want to talk/post about it...
5) alternate universe: you die, and you go to the 5th or whatever dimension it is...
6) Ghosts: I believe in this (I've had a encounter before); are we to walk the earth as white-ish blobs known as "spirits" to haunt something/someone?

You never know... the list is endless...

If this was true, don't you think there would be alot more encounters? Think about it, if everyone (talking about the uncountable ppl who have died) was to walk on earth as spirits hunting... it wouldnt be a strange thing to encounter with one... at all.

There are many theories.Rebirth,heaven-hell.But this a domain human can never step on.U can only find the true answer when u die.Untill then live your life to the fullest without regret and thinking about what happpens next.

I agree with you on that... however, I think spirits can show themselves to those they want to and hide from others. then there's that "theory" with spiritual energy and whatnot (you know, bleach). Then in shaman King, it's said that only shamans can see ghosts, and Yoh (the main character if you didnt know) says that all good people can see ghosts (hey! im a good person! and so are most people here! <I dont know about this one). I've had an encounter, but I didn't see the blob/spirit/voice/godknowswhat of the ghost.

I think that the electrical impulses in our brain stops and our consiousness and personalities ceases to exist.
And our bodies rot in the ground.

Lol, that last theory is kinda off,
if you're past lives determine your personality,
then wtf are you in your first? a chair? :eek13:

yeah, wtf, if everything that dies stays in it's past form then the world would now be WAY overcrowded with spirits, i mean, milions of years of dead creatures,
wtf, every milimeter would be crowded in the spectral realm by now....
-----------------------
As a Hindu I beleive in reincarnation until we have a perfect life and then we stay with the gods for all eternity.
(no discrimination or such, just an opinion) don't u think that's kind of boring?
till all eyernity with the gods...
----------
maybe some of the people of this planet who believe in rebirth pity the fact that they can't remember their previous lives,
you actually i'd be rather thankfull, i mean,
i would die of boredom every second now, simply because of the fact that i tried almost everything in the world...
-----------------------
But i believe something like this will happen:
You are energy, developing and developing more and more thanks to data,
your subconciousness is that energy, the more you know, the more you grow,
as your knowledge increases, your subconciousness uses that knowledge to gain other forms (- to increase your knowledge more)
let's say something like:
Ant - knowledge - Catterpillar - knowledge - mouse - knowledge - bird - knowledge - dog - knowledge - monkey - knowledge human, ect..

So in other words Jinzu the more knowledge the transformation will be more better?Umm... what are you trying to say?

Whater this is what I belive in:

Krama and Drama their like the balance what you might become in your next life which God makes the decision or not.Who knows what we might be just flying soul in the universe or something like that.

Well, i'm actually implying more to experience ;)
the more experience, the earlier the transformation...
you can live a human life 20 times, but that does not mean that you can't get an equal amount of experience in 1...
You can be a lazy *** (like me ;P) and gain no knowledge in life (but live it over 40 times)
or you can go on journeys experience things, learn new stuff, ect.
and live only 1
(well, just see it like a leveling game :P)
\btw i don't mind being a lazy @55 and living life 40 times, because eventually everyone get's there, no matter how long it takes...

Well, I'm an atheist, and I don't believe in ghosts, reincarnations, souls, etc. What I think will happen is that your body will rot in the ground, and gradually decompose. It will become nutrients for plants, and the plants will be happy! =P

09-09-2006, 08:45 PM
im a muslim..and according to our religion when we die the soul will remain in the grave till judgement day.....untill then if the person was bad while alive then the angels of death will torture his soul in the grave but if he was a good person then he will rest in peace with the angels of death blessing him in his grave till judgement day

after the judgement day has come then all the souls of the dead and living will together rise and go before god for questioning.....and from there the good will be sent to heaven and the bad to hell.....

its very confusing and has alot of questions to it but all i can do is accept it bcuz its my religion...so basically i do believe that there is life after death...but i do respect all other opinions and all other religions and beliefs

Pantera

I strongly believe in it, though I believe it in the bhuddist kinda way (sp?)

If say, I robbed a bank, bought drugs with it and shot some guy dead, I'd end up becoming some type of low life creature like an ant or a rat. Say I saved lives and done good deeds, then I'd come back possibly as a human or a better animal that wont get castrated and put in a zoo....

Mmkay. How can I explain this?



Well, I'm not entirely sure what's after death. No one is. I'd like to think we just ... disappear. Because me and Judgement? No thank you. Technically, I'm still Catholic, but I've done so many 'sins' and ... it sounds wrong, but I can't bring myself to care about Jesus or the church. So I'm all for staying in a hole and rotting.

i think after you die you experience life AGAIN by being born as the same person, same birth date, the same basic stuff but you can decide to change what happens to you, that or you get reincarnated as someone exactly like you

nah once your dead your dead, this life after death belief if for those whom are scared of the thought of this so it was developed as a way to "deal" with this inevitable out come on life, its just like if you keep telling yourself some thing sooner or later you'll believe it...

maybe, although the mere thought of just "ceasing to exist" is quite hard to grasp...especially concidering you obviously cannot remember a time when you didn't exist.

Having said that it would make it a lot easier to believe in an afterlife where your conciousness will live on. Personally, I was raised in a Christian home so I do believe in an afterlife....but thats just me :biggrinki

They're all interesting possibilities..Alot of them focus on reincarnation and religion.

My own personal belief at the moment is that just before we die..That split second before we die we create our own after life.

A dream lasts for only about a second when your sleeping and you have heaps of them but you only remember one or two..I propose that that split second before you die your mind enters this dreamlike state and you start "dreaming" about this afterlife. And since you die when you wake up this dream lasts for eternity. Thus i believe that if your a strong willed person you can create your own afterlife by your state of mind jsut before you die..

Thoughts on this?

Interesting theory, creation of your own afterlife. That your own subconsious determines your fate. This parallels that you along are the punisher of your own deeds.

You see, I don't believe that heaven and hell exists. Simply because in your heart, you would have already punished yourself spiritually according to your actions. (unless insane... :P) As well, I think the theory of heaven and hell, riencarnation, etc, are there simply to encourage good values and a good life, as well as a comfort for death.

The real truth is that through doing good things during this life, you are already achieving eternal happiness. For doing the right thing, it really does feel good in your heart.
