I do. I lost my hubby 5 years ago so having this belief gives me comfort that I'll see him again. Not for everyone I know

I guess we will find out one day.

Right now I'm more interested in existence before I die.

"We're all pretty much nothing whilst we are alive too."

In my opinion there is no afterlife . Beyond my opinion there is zero credible data to suggest one exists and much credible data to suggest it is exceptionally improbable if not verging upon impossible xxx

If one wants to class either memes or elemental perpetuation as afterlife then they exist , as for a rational mind thinking beyond its original brain , I'm afraid that is very very unlikely and if if existence it's very likely to be verifiable xxx

Afterlife ? No , not really .

I do however think we may keep returning to put right our wrongs , and eventually reach that nirvana .

I'd like to think there was.

When my childhood dog died I had a dream of him running towards my Uncle who had passed away on holiday in Spain at the age of 30.

My Uncle was kneeling down as if calling to the dog. That dream gave me great comfort, that they were reunited.

Silly I know, but still, If nothing else we can dream.

your body stops functioning, your soul only exists because of that body and everything it experienced, imo.

your existence is meaningless.

Not sure bad things happening to good people is called kama, is proof or even an vague indication of kama or an afterlife , more the contrary I'd suggest

And you did just say that kama exists into the next life , just wondered how you could state that or did you mean to say you hope it does?

Yes, but depends what you mean by afterlife, your soul just keeps getting reincarnated on this planet until youve achieved ehat you are here for then you go to the next plane until we have completed that and carry on up the planes and when you have completed all the challenges your soul goes to a resting place this could take thousands of life years. But i havent worked out in my head whether your soul actually does rest when it gets to the highest plane or whether the whole cycle starts again. Thats the bit my brain hasnt worked out yet

Don't beleive in the religious dogma about afterlife but also struggle with the scientific dogma also. But don't belittle people who do believe in such, if they get comfort then okay.

I want to believe there is. However I also think following religion is a form of mental illness.

I know that religion is different from afterlife, but they do go hand in hand. So it's hard for me to accept there's an afterlife when I disagree with a lot of what organised religion does.

I guess there's only one way to find out eh.

I didn't say that bad things happen to good people is karma. Quite the opposite.

If I hoped for something I would state that. I stated my belief! If you're shitty in this life, expect shit in the next = karma = lessons to learn.

Not only an 'afterlife' but a repeated 'do -over' here until you get it right . And I believe belittle others for believing differently to you, crushing dreams and taking away much needed comfort is wrong and selfish . Why would any decent person feel the need to do that ?

You're writing that as if it's a fact. It's an opinion. There is no proof one way or the other, so it comes down to belief. You either believe a "soul" continues to be "operative / conscious" after your physical body dies, or you don't.

IIRC, its a theory that has been discovered in various cultures and civilisations across thousands of years and various continents with no way for them to have ever interacted or known of each others belief system.

Search for the seven planes of existance

As for the OP- in a universe of infinite possibilites, who knows what really happens when we die- one thing is for sure, you can't destroy energy, so in a way, we've all been here since the beginning of time and will remain immortal is some for unless we encounter so unknown force that challenges that law of physics- still think the heaven and hell thing is a bag of bollocks though

The religious amongst the fab ensemble believe the soul is immortal and on death it goes to the afterlife.

If the soul is immortal de facto it has no beginning and no end so if one believes in life after death then you have to believe in life before life?

In summary it's all complete Mogodon for the masses you are born and the certain things that follow are taxes, no replies to messages on Fab and finally death.

Just saying!

No afterlife, just a continuum. The idea that our consciousness is our essence is wrong in my opinion. I think therefore I am, is a misnomer. We are beings consisting of energy and from that energy matter. It doesn't cease to exist when we die, it just becomes something else. There is no afterlife but life isn't bound to the form you currently take. If it was then you are not the same person you were this morning, so have you stopped existing, to be replaced by a similar but not the exact same version of yourself?

It's choice what you believe in. But science isn't choice and science shows that when we die, we die. There is nothing out there that proves otherwise. The idea that we live on is based on nothing other than some weird hope that we're too important to die. Which is ridiculous. We're not that important.

"No. It's a weakness in humans that we believe we are so important that we can't just die like every other life form on this planet.

but the other life forms dont just die they have souls as well. just cause we are humans now doest mean weve always been humans, i could have been a slug before for all i know

Based on no evidence whatsoever.....Other than a hope that we don't die.

but what evidence are you basing the fact that we just die. Its just choice what you believe in

It's choice what you believe in. But science isn't choice and science shows that when we die, we die. There is nothing out there that proves otherwise. The idea that we live on is based on nothing other than some weird hope that we're too important to die. Which is ridiculous. We're not that important."

but i dont actually care if i do just die. I live my life in this world i dont remember past reincarnations and i doubt the next form my soul takes will remember this. But i dont think its just humans that have souls all the animal kingdom and only in the past couple of weeks i definetly believe vegatables do.

I did think trees did but wasnt sure so last week i went away for a couple of days to study trees and i came back with the conclusion trees definetly have souls

Watched a interesting documentary on this subject.

Apparently your DNA leaches into the earth, ground water etc. and lives on in surrounding plant life and soil.

This was scientifically tested.

So in effect your DNA lives on forever in some form.

There is most certainly afterlife.

1) where did we come from? From the decree of God.

2) why are we here ? To worship God and to good deeds. Doing good deeds makes us good people and God will reward us in this world and in the afterlife or one or the other.

3) where do we go after we die? In heaven it in hell.

Now think about it. All those bad evil people do t they deserve the punishment? Yes

All those believing good people what's their reward ? Heaven. Simple.

Exactly! That's why we have those déjà moments where we go somewhere we know we've never been before but we recognise it and we have conversations with people and suddenly think..hold on this has happened before...but we know it hasn't? Well it has in a former life because we just evolve...there is no end...it's eternal

There will be an end to the world we know this has happened to dinosaurs before us and who knows what other creatures existed before that. Resurrection will happen and everyone will rise up and then the book of good and bad deeds will present themselves.

There will be no hiding and ni denying and God will be fair in deciding who the fire of hell awaits and who the gardens of heaven and eternal bliss awaits.

Think about it. We all have good and bad within us. We constantly fight over the bad and most people have more good than bad. But the devil always try's to take us further away from our Creator and do sin. It's like the quite polite kids who do their homework in time end up being in good professions. And the unruly kids end up in not so good professions.

In the same God rewards and punishes in similar way.

God is like a hidden treasure we us creation must know Him and obey Him. Now how do we know God? Problem even if God shows himself people will not believe and say that's a angel or some kind if magic. Similarly some religions want so much to know God that they portray Him in their desired image. Such as Jesus portrayed as a certain colour and complexion. Buddha and the many idols created by the people in their own desires. So shod in Hus wisdom decided not to reveal himself. But God has given us knowledge and intellect to imagine him not by image but by His powers and characteristics.

He isn't a hidden treasure, he just doesn't exist. There isn't one scrap of evidence that god does exist, or that the bible is non-fiction.

God shows us signs of the system of life and creation to shows His existence and powers. Such as the drought kills the land and makes it barren. So in this respect God takes life of the land. But then God sends rain and the land becomes fertile and things grow again. This is one such example of how God takes life and created life again

"No.

I do however believe that as one dies and oxygen supply is cut to the brain you can hallucinate and hence explains the 'near death' experiences that many describe "

If one had died then how can one describe a near death experience.

"And in this there are signs for those who reflect". God is known by His characteristics or names such as most merciful, most kind, the creator, the first, the hidden, the wise, the judge,etc. know God not by any man made image but by His characteristics and by His system of creation of how life comes then goes and by His signs for us to reflect

Erm, air and heat has been proven due to their particles and how they react. And due to the sleight fact that you can ACTUALLY feel them both. Can you prove that god exists at all and not just his image? No chance

Ask any believer can they feel God and the answer is yes. God is unlike any of His creation so the feeling will not be the same. No one can physically prove God but one can see the system of creation to know that there is a far superior Creator who is the master of the universe

Ffs, you can feel god? Are you still d*unk? No one can prove that there is one, because there isn't one. Not rocket science. Oh! Now we're on science and you seemed to mention the 'system of creation'. I'm assuming you're on about the creation of the universe? The Big Bang. (Not the tv series). You know, where particles collided and made an explosion flinging all kinds of matter everywhere and causing space to expand? Those are the facts.

When my Uncle died my grampy started going to Church every Sunday. Up until that point he had shown no signs of being religious. He was a Yorkshireman (very matter of fact and called a spade a spade), he had fought in the War and had been shot, so had obviously seen gruesome stuff that would make you question faith.

He chose to believe that he would see his Son again. Whether he would or not didn't really matter. The thought of it brought him comfort and got him through some difficult years because my nan took my Uncle's sudden death badly and became ill.

My grampy wasn't a stupid man, he just chose to believe that he would be reunited with his son.

It's easy to be flippant and belittle other people's beliefs, (whatever they may be) but it really doesn't make you superior.

Live and let live.

No they are not facts at all, big bang is an unproven theory and will always remain so, you cannot get something from nothing and never will be able to. I work in science everyday, i am a physicist and i can tell you and everyone else that there is alot of narrow minded bad science out there where people are of a closed mind mentality. Always keep an open mind to what is not understood rather than the flat earth approach. It is the narrow minded approach that led scientists to once believe that the earth is flat and you'll fall off the edge if you travel too far, and that the sun goes round the earth. These were theories that have since been proved wrong just as many of todays theories will be proved wrong, big bang and evolution among them. 150 years from now scientists of the day will look back at 21st century theories and laugh at how wrong they were.

So god(s) is a he? Convenient !

So for most religions God is invisible responsible for all good things that happen and is never wrong. Can be vengeful when creation pisses him off He is the source of great pleasure and comfort but is difficult to communicate with and only speaks when he wants to.

Are you sure God is a he?

"Yes, but depends what you mean by afterlife, your soul just keeps getting reincarnated on this planet until youve achieved ehat you are here for then you go to the next plane until we have completed that and carry on up the planes and when you have completed all the challenges your soul goes to a resting place this could take thousands of life years. But i havent worked out in my head whether your soul actually does rest when it gets to the highest plane or whether the whole cycle starts again. Thats the bit my brain hasnt worked out yet

"

Ffs, you can feel god? Are you still d*unk? No one can prove that there is one, because there isn't one. Not rocket science. Oh! Now we're on science and you seemed to mention the 'system of creation'. I'm assuming you're on about the creation of the universe? The Big Bang. (Not the tv series). You know, where particles collided and made an explosion flinging all kinds of matter everywhere and causing space to expand? Those are the facts. No they are not facts at all, big bang is an unproven theory and will always remain so, you cannot get something from nothing and never will be able to. I work in science everyday, i am a physicist and i can tell you and everyone else that there is alot of narrow minded bad science out there where people are of a closed mind mentality. Always keep an open mind to what is not understood rather than the flat earth approach. It is the narrow minded approach that led scientists to once believe that the earth is flat and you'll fall off the edge if you travel too far, and that the sun goes round the earth. These were theories that have since been proved wrong just as many of todays theories will be proved wrong, big bang and evolution among them. 150 years from now scientists of the day will look back at 21st century theories and laugh at how wrong they were."

You say people should keep an open mind (which I agree with) but then say Big Bang and evolution will both be proved wrong...... shouldn't you be keeping an open mind?

Ok enough already let's look at the facts.

The universe is circa 4 billion years old. Human kind in its biped form has be around fo circa 8000 years that is the homosapien species. Of that 8000 years civilised exisatance has plied its knowledge for 5000 years although the poor unfortunates in Aleppo would question if homosapiens are remotely civilised.

So god had only been the subject of adoration for a nano second in terms of the life of history. We homosapiens are so up our own arses with self importance and the need to find something to bow down to or to die for is obsessive.

We are part of a gigantic ball of primordial gas that just happens to have H2o as a bi product of that gas hence why we on a Sunday morning are talking about God.

Just saying!

8000 years ? Are you a Scientologist ?

I'd say we are looking at 6,000,000 to 8,000,000 years ago. Give or take an hour or two.

"One of my biggest comforts is that there is nothing after dying. This life is it in my opinion. I don't want to live trying to plan for an uncertain future or trying to please an uncertain being. "

that a great attitude live you life being the best person you can be have as much fun as you can .

if there's a after life great and if there isn't so what I had a bloody great time while I was here .

that's how a think about the after life and old age or illness . I want to cram as much in as I can until old age illness of dead stops me.

"God is like a hidden treasure we us creation must know Him and obey Him. Now how do we know God? Problem even if God shows himself people will not believe and say that's a angel or some kind if magic. Similarly some religions want so much to know God that they portray Him in their desired image. Such as Jesus portrayed as a certain colour and complexion. Buddha and the many idols created by the people in their own desires. So shod in Hus wisdom decided not to reveal himself. But God has given us knowledge and intellect to imagine him not by image but by His powers and characteristics.

So god(s) is a he? Convenient !

So for most religions God is invisible responsible for all good things that happen and is never wrong. Can be vengeful when creation pisses him off He is the source of great pleasure and comfort but is difficult to communicate with and only speaks when he wants to.

Are you sure God is a he?

"

Seriously though, God is beyond gender, "he" is just more polite than "it". God is beyond good and evil. Hinduism understands this and so portrays God with many different facets - gods and goddesses of good and evil.

Think about it - how could a "good" god create something with the capacity to do bad (humans, angels), if "he" didn't have that capacity?

The Big Bang 'Theory' is about the creation of the Universe. It is not about the existence of SuperNova which is matter in existence after the supposed 'Big Bang'

"Yes, but depends what you mean by afterlife, your soul just keeps getting reincarnated on this planet until youve achieved ehat you are here for then you go to the next plane until we have completed that and carry on up the planes and when you have completed all the challenges your soul goes to a resting place this could take thousands of life years. But i havent worked out in my head whether your soul actually does rest when it gets to the highest plane or whether the whole cycle starts again. Thats the bit my brain hasnt worked out yet

How many planes are there ?

What does a soul look like ?

How does it get into a new baby ?

Do gibbons have souls ?

Do Tasmanian Devils get past the second plane ?"

i dont know how many planes, i have no recollection of past ones or knowledge of future ones but they are not infinite but there is a top plane. This is where your soul rests or completes its cycle and starts again.(thats what my brain hasnt worked out yet)

A soul doesnt really look like anything its a presence.

A new baby is born with a soul, i think when a baby is developing inside and turns from s featus at about 12 weeks thats when the soul arrives.

Of cause gibbons have souls, why would humans be the only member of the animal kingdom to have one. Everything living has a soul.

As for the last bit im not even going to bother to answer.

By the way, the big bang theory is considered vastly incomplete by an increasing number of scientists.

How do you know this stuff?

To my knowledge there is no soul that can survive brain death . Where do you find your data ,?"

It's not data...it's called faith. Millions of misguided souls have it. I just remember that "God" did not create man.....it was the other way round. Fine for primitively, ignorant cultures....but no room for it in a modern, enlightened world.
