Would you be just fine if you knew there was no life after death?

That would be horrible if everything was just science... there would be like no point in living...

If there is no life after death, then I might as well just die now. Working in school and stuff wouldn't matter crap.

There's been tons of "real" ghost stories and videos, but I mean with a population of seven billion wouldn't you expect someone to see something fishy?

If there was no life after death, i would just work harder to enjoy the life that i have now. aaaaarrrrggggg

we have a winner! topic over.

For some reason, I see reincarnation as the most likely outcome.SolidSnake35

That's how I see it. And if you lived a good first or whatever number of lives your on, your next life will be even better.

Thinking that there's no afterlife makes me wanna somehow become IMMORTAL!

:cry: Anyone know of any way to make me immortal? :(

Walk up a steep cliff and raise a sword up in the air. Also... make sure a storm is about when you work on such a task.

Well i've already made peace with the fact that there very well could be nothing after death. I've always had a feeling that it is just how it is before you are born, no consciousness of ever being.

I would be very sad anyway I got a question if your reincarnated do you know at some point of your past lifenintendo_fan675

That or spirits/ghosts.

Either way, if nothing exists after death, it makes me want to live life to the fullest, rather than live by the restrictions imposed by religions that claim "You'll be in Heaven in death because of your devotion to God in life".

Smarter you say?...Coming from the poster who can't use proper puncuation in their post, and just bad mouthed all people who have differing beliefs about God in the other topic?

The topic is asking about our personal feelings on the matter in the "Hypothetical situation" that there were no afterlife of any kind. It is not disrespecting beliefs shroomario, it is asking for input on a possible situation.

But I'll counter your post of butchered English with this...

Who's come back from death to share with us the actual experience of the after life? None. Don't believe you know the facts, when neither our views, nor yours have any credibility. In my case, as I said...I'd be fine if there was no afterlife.

Yup. At the moment I believe that there is nothing after death.fkholmes

As an atheist I believe that there is no afterlife. I am fine with this, the things that drive me is a thirst for knowledge, a need to leave this world a better place for my children, and the want to continue on the human species. I live my life to the fullest, making sure I make the most of it.dlp21

That makes no sense.

If you believed that there was an afterlife, then your current life probably wouldn't matter as much - which I guess is the reason why religions made up the 'you only go to a good afterlife if you lived a good life' rule.

If you don't believe in the afterlife, then you'll want to live your one and only life to the fullest.

HAHAHA, dude, I promise, I wouldn't hit you back, 1) because you are prolly some kid and I wouldn't want to go to jail for assaulting a minor, and 2) I would bring charges against you so fast it wouldn't be funny.

But if you wanted to fight in say a legal way, I promise you, I would take you to town brother.

You wont know when you're dead. So if there is no life after death you wont be aware that you're missing anything. Personally I see death as a permanent state of unconciousness. You ever been knocked out for surgery? I think it would be like that, complete unawarness, no thoughts, no dreams, nothing.

No life after death changes nothing about your life either. Would this life have any meaning if you went on to live a new, eternal life? Not really. Its not like your salary, worldly possessions, or reputation follow you. If anything atheism treats life more valuably than religion does. The theist position is that this life doesn't really matter. You screwed up, lost some limbs, live in poverty, live in jail? No problem, you get a second life and that one lasts forever. The atheistic position is that since this is the only life you'll ever get you better make it count.

Come to think of it, what do you think the point of this life is anyway? To get into heaven? In that case, what is the point of your second, eternal life?

I see what you mean, but I rather go through life looking forward to some sort of after life. And if there is none, hell, I won't be dissapointed, I'd be dead.

Same.

I mean, imagine if you were just...Not there. You can't see or speak. Or hear. Not move anything. You have no body. No eyes. You're just...Nothing. You can't think. Can't make any noises. Wouldn't that be weird? I mean, there has to be life after life. You can't imagine what death is like unless you have already died. Mabye you have a choice if you want to be an animal? Or human again? Ofcourse, some things are beyond human comprehension.

I have this odd feeling telling me if I knew that I'd already be dead...

Or, its impossible to not have an afterlife. How can there be death if you are alive?
