Now first off this isn't one of those pittifull little me threads... It's not.. *oh my life sux.... so I wanna kill myself* Its a... What is the point in living thread... It's a ..I wanna know if there is anything next thread... Think about it... so many religions.... so many ideas on purpose of life and what happens in death... does our psyche just rot away with our body's into nothingness? or Do we go somewhere when we die? are we reborn? Death is enevitable either way.. so why not just rush it so I can hurry the fuck up and figure it all out..... couse if we die and I just rot away... what did I lose exept a few extra years of pointless pleasure and pain... and if there is another plane I'll have reached it.... heavan, hell, wherever... and if we are reborn.. then.. I didn't really gain or lose anything... or do i simply wake from this everlasting dream? I guess this is more about finding out the truth than anything else.. finding purpose is the thing closest to my heart right now.... truths are subjective... what happens in death I don't believe is.... whats yall oppinion?
man i totally agree with you. Death is unavoidable so fuck it. What is the point of going through pain and pleasure if your gonna die anyway. If only we did know what exactly happens when you die.
But, in most religions, their idea of what happens is very similar, and also in most religions, thakeing ones life is a very serious sin, because it is taking the rol of God...if there is a Hell, which i beleive to exist in a type of purgatory Hell, you would end up there for the very ending of your life.. THIRDLY you would not be alble to relate to the psyical world what you findings are because you would be seperate from your body and cannot enter the psyisical worl... but that's just my views...
Well, ya i too respect your beleifs, and i too am not christian, but i was just saying, what if there is no heaven (paraise) or Hell, what if you just end up pushing daisys, you waisted all that you could acomplish in this life? how would the people close to you feel?
I think its worth the pain and pleasure, because when we die why simply don't exist just like before we were born. So might as well live it up now.
The thought that u express here has cross my mind many times. What's the point of life? Does it makes a difference wheter I'm alive or not? I'm a really happy person but get the idea of suicide many times in my head because of that reason, because of not knowing the meaning of life. But I like living, and how each day amazes me, I think the reason of life is finding a reason to life. And for me death is the anestesia of life. Death is to not live.. to not feel life, that's why I think is like anestesia. I once went trough a surgery and I had anestesia.. and for me I was death, is like I ceased to exist, and while things happen around me, I had no awareness of this.. all I can remember of that is waking up again.. and wondering what happened?.
no, but if i am wrong, and there is no after life, i'd rather be living than dead, just a fact of it...I love my life, yes it is hard and trying, but i love it...
No, because this is your one and only shot at life. Make it good. I mean, sure, if there's no rebirth or afterlife, there isn't a difference if you just end it all now. But the way I see it, that makes this life infinitely more important (I believe that regardless of the question of afterlife, but whatever). Make of it what you can, do your best, live a good life. Enjoy your time while it lasts. I think this outlook, no afterlife, gives you all the freedom you need to make your life better. There's no excuse for letting yourself remain in a situation you hate, because you have no heaven to look forward to (it'll be better later, no reason to improve my life now...), no religion keeping you down (it's god's will, or your karma in action, that put you in a bad life...). You are the master of your life, so you've only yourself to blame if you stay in a bad situation out of fear of doing anything else.
I always say is not our choice to be born, but is our choice to stay alive. So ppl should live if they wanna live, and quit life if that's what they wanna do. I'm actually not afraid of Death.. I could die right now, and it would be ok. But if its my choice, I wanna keep living the life and living.
SPELLING / GRAMMAR ERRORS: I'm not going to pick apart misspelled words such as "sux" because I realize you probably know how to spell it but you're just a lazy asshole. List: pittifull = Pitiful body's = bodies enevitable = inevitable couse is a word used by poor black people in the days of segregation in the U.S. It isn't even technically a word but unfortunately has become socially acceptable to use and is conventionally spelled 'cause . oppinion = opinion Now, beyond that... None of us know what happens to us after death, but my dad always used to say "The only thing that we know for sure about how we live on after death is how we are remembered by those around." My interperetation of that is that there is one clear definition of heaven and hell, being wheather you are remembered as a good person or just some sleezy bastard.
in terms of death being an existance, it raises this question is the opposite to 1 = -1 or 0? anyway, i AM afraid of death, and i believe that tehre is no afterlife. I want to live forever. all the bullshit of 'youd live on and everyone close to you would jsut die' is really stupid really. id rather have them live of course, but if they die, then thats waht happens to everyone. if i could live forever, id pick that over death. but despite being afraid of death, i like living excitably. i think we should all take more risks in life. caus in teh end, insane jester is right, it wont make a differnet if we die now or die later. cept we may as well fit the best in before we die for the sake of it.
Seems to me 1 and -1 are the same thing. A debt to one person is an asset to another, depends on the point of view. But once the debt is paid, its over, and it's 0. Thus, I'd say that life is life, but death is nothingness, 0. Death is the settled debt. By the way, birth is the opposite of death. The opposite of life is non-life.
acctually x=y is possible, it is a strai line graph, where the coorinates are bth the same like (2,2) or (6,6) or even 1/4356, 1/4356)...they can equal eachother... but yes, if there is no after life deth=0 but if there is death=? cause life is ?.....just in case you don't know =forever(infinity)
Well, opposites define each other and are part of the same thing. There is no white without black, etc. So 1 and -1 are opposites. Not the same thing but definitely connected. And I think you're wrong, the lack of 1 is 0, not -1. For example, if I don't have 1 dollar, that doesn't mean I have -1 dollar, it means I have 0 dollars. Now, if I owe 1 dollar, then I will have -1 dollar. See how that works? It's the difference between having nothing and having a debt. I see death as having nothing, because having a debt means someone else has an asset. I am -1 and he is 1. Life is like an unsettled debt, and when things are rebalanced and all debts even, that's what we call death, or in our numeric example, 0
Aww... the questioning of life phase, so cute...you're a tad late with it though, must people pass through it by the age of 15... I think that you should just do it, end it, if you are truly dumb enough to believe that life is worthless.
I think that if all there is after death is nothing, then doesnt it make sense to do whatever makes you happy? in other words, look at your life and say: "what do I want?" and then take it. because if theres nothing after life, then what the fuck do i care what people think of me? if im just going to be worm food then fuck it, i'm going to steal whatever i want, fuck everyone i can, and beat the hell out of anyone who makes me mad. im not sure what i believe about an afterlife or whatever, but to me if worm food is the end, then this is the only thing that makes sense
Don't be an idiot. One must ask questions... but not fucken doubt life when they cannot be answered? What's the meaning of life...?! Here's your answer: To bloody reproduce and keep on the survival of the human species.
