Insanity is BlissNothing. To believe otherwise is insanity.
This is what you got, make good use of it.
Yup.
Oblivion, unless we develop some form of consciousness upload. I believe that life is lived truth which only has meaning because it doesn't last forever. The notion of some eternal realm for your soul gives me major I Have no Mouth and Must Scream vibes once you exhaust every possible thing you could ever do there. True "eternity" is something that humans can't even comprehend nor quantify. When I read other spiritual descriptions of their versions of an afterlife I'm left thinking that the whole thing sounds so... Small?
I just believe when we die we're gone, dust, nothing. No afterlife, God, heaven etc.
You remember that nothingness you experienced before you were born?
That was what death is like.
Or that dreamless sleep you experience every night. That's like being dead.
That's it.
You die, that's it. Stop looking for a mulligan from a magic sky fairy. Treat real people that exist now with dignity and, more importantly, equity.
My belief, we end. Sucks though, I envy those who can believe in an after life. I don't wanna die, I don't want my wife to die, and I damn sure don't want my daughter to die. Even if we could simply survive as nothing more than a program inside a PC one day, I'd take it to be with them forever. But it is what it is, we're falling off the cliff eventually, I'm just glad I found good partners for the duration of my climb.
I'm sorry, I get choked up thinking about it too.
