Philosophy Topic 1 Afterlife

[Diso]

Lets go scholars.

 

Heaven or hell or not?

 

As for me, I'm not sure I really buy that. Unless you confess right before you die, and then u give money to poor person, then u get into heaven, otherwise you goto hell? Thats the way I suppose it works.

 

I believe in a limbo or a purgatory though. A place where all souls go is pretty logical to me.

[Gryph]

Well you can get the last rites by a priest and that's supposed to absolve you of all sin if you are Catholic.

 

I believe in neither. But prior to my switch to athiesm, I believed in reincarnation.

[Diso]

Reincarnation...now how does that work. U get randomly put into a body and u forget all prior memories?

[random guy]

I think that it's something man was just not meant to know (until we die of course). But I do believe that something inhabits our bodies (call it a soul, or a spirit, or whatever) and that that entity goes somewhere after the body's death, although it may go back into another mortal body (ie reincarnation).

[Gryph]

It depends how you life your life. If you are good, you'll come back as a human, if you're not, you'll come as a house fly or something. I didn't really learn much about it.

[ken_cinder]

I don't believe in that which I cannot see any physical/fundamental proof of.

 

So you can't see air, it's proven to exist........god is not.

[Gryph]

I have a similar view about world.

[KyokugenKiss]

when i die....i will come back with all the powers of darkness.....you shall never get the stone!!!!

[BoomBa_GoosE]

ive always thought about this. im suppose to be a buddhist by following my family, but as i grew older, i figuerd that im not a religious person at all. i beleive in a higher power, but who knows what that is....

 

so i would love to believe in coming back as something else when u die, but of course, that is so fantasy like, its kinda hard to believe.

 

actually, anythin that deals with an afterlife is hard to believe...we jus gotta wait and see...

 

id choose to be a spirit though

[Agozer]

Neither. I like to keep it simple and having both makes things fugly.

[OverlordMondo]

I wish I restarted life every time I died, as another human, and retained my memories. But oh well.

 

I don't know what's going on anymore, screw it all.

there's a heaven for the gods and angels and there's a hell for people that've done evil deeds and for people waiting to be bought back to life, also u have to drink this soup thingy that erase ur memories. most people just come back to our life but as different things but if u've have dones really bad deeds or killed themselives than u will stay in the 18th floors of hell and and 18th is the worse, and if u killed urself then u'll keep killing urself. mostly monks and other holy people will have a chance to go to heaven and become a follower of a goddness but i'm not so sure about how that works tho
