~ 97% of the time, yes. So yes, i do. (*holding in 2 hour rant about what i think about death and the possibilities of the life we will lead after we die...*)
I also was raised baptist and when you start to do your research, it really makes you question your past beliefs.
Some persons are eternal. They'll never die. Others will have a choice to live on or to just die off after this life we have here now.
Absolutely. I Also Believe In Reincarnation, And Think We Choose The Number Of Lives We Have And Circumstances Coming Back In.
Yes....I have NO DOUBT that there is a life after this....as there was a life BEFORE this...we just continue on.....
Nope, i don't want to fool myself and give me a false hope that i sould not worry if i miss something in this life that i will get another chanse. There are no second chanses or second lives, that's just the way it is.
But, Marija, what if you turn out to be wrong? By closing your mind you are doing to things : 1. Giving into the fear that you dont want to be let down. 2. Giving into the fear of what you may discover. I mean, Im not saying you are wrong or right, but to claim that "that's just way it is" is to put your opinion out as fact, and therefor above and beyond anyone elses. Which, in acuality, is rooted in another fear. But thats besides the point.
Like the Bible says in regard to the son of god "His head and hairs were like wool, and His eyes were as a flame of fire" If he wasn't black he sure as shit wore dreads Hotwater
With my opinion i don't loose anything. You loose if i'm right, it will turn out that you were living a lie all the time. And no, i have no fears about death and the fact that we all take responsibilyties about our actions and we don't get second chanses for our mistakes, and i'm happier this way. I find my self more down to earth than you.
Well then do me a favor? Tell my friends they dont know what their missing j/k btw, considering yourself more "down to earth" or better than me, or anyone, in anyway, only goes to show how much learning and growing up you still have to do. Good luck
Ok.....I can see that it makes you feel secure and safe to have such a belief ...but...what if WE are right and YOU are wrong....I dont think that having that particualr belief makes you anymore down to earth than anyone else...and by no means am I any BETTER than anyone else ....I think all should be allowed their own beliefs without anyone belittling them for it. SO , for your own sake , I hope you ARE right. But , if you are WRONG....dont worry...you will have another chance in the next life to get it right. PEACE to you.
I die every time I wake up. The 'me' that was in the dream is no longer existing, neither the world in which it lived--- so when this body dies, I will wake up somewhere else. Life is forever uninterrupted, and only bodies and worlds appear to perish.
