Interesting theory on death. I for one do not really loo at death as serious as this for it's occurence is natural.

I was in a car accident 3... 4 years ago. Women ran a red light and slammed into passenger (me) at 60mph. (In front of a church I might add)


Based on what was told to me later, when I was pulled from the wrekage, my heart wasn't beating. Luckily I was shocked in the ambulance and my heart rate came back.

But unfortunately, in the emergency helicopter to the hospital, I went flat. Once again, shocked and I came back.. barely.

And once more in the emergency room I had to be shocked again due to my heart stopping. Doctor said it's a miracle i'm alive.

I don't mean to ramble, weather you believe or agree with this or not.
But from what I remmeber of this time. I remember it... and I smile, as if death were the most incredible feeling you could ever have. Seems strange I know... But it's there.

That's what most religions believe.

Once you die, can you think about death? No. So stop worrying about it.

That's exactly my point in layman's terms.

Heh. It's kind of funny. I often feel like I'm in a dream and will wake up when I know I'm awake. The whole thing is kinda weird.

makisupa007, your post reminds me of a quote from Damian Isla (Bungie's Lead AI Programmer) on the Bungie Podcast.

Quote:
There's real intelligence and artificial intelligence, and, really, what's the difference? We're all just if-then-else statements. We happen to be implemented in neurons, but we're just if-then-else statements. Ultimately.
Not entirely relevant but your post just reminded me of that.

The thing is, i am an atheist, but im kinda scared that if im an atheist, tht basicly means were all doomed to die and just see black for eternity

EXPLANATION: if there is no such thing as god, the explanation of death becomes rather scientific, when you die, your body shuts down, meaning theres no senses in your body, you cant think, you cant see, you cant move, you cant do shit. All there is is blackness.

so, are we doomed to an eternity of darkness?
or is there such thing as a soul that goes on?

send me for plus rep, send me for minus rep. one per person.

There is no darkness, there is no god, and there is no science.

Just thoughts and perceptions.

You won't have senses, therefore won't experience anything.

Out of destruction there is creation.

We live for death, so others may live. So the others live to die for another other.
One point of living is dying. Everyday is another day closer to death. If this scares you its normal. But we all die. It happens. We shouldn't fear it. It will happen to all of us.


All living things die. So to be alive you must die. If you dont die, you where never truly alive.

Realy, humans shouldnt contemplate death. It will happen; just like the wind blows, or the leaves fall. Stop worrying about anything and just do what ever you want. Dont let people get in your way. You only got so much time left.
