If the human brain dies, the scientist claims there is oblivion. The christian claims there's heaven and hell. I believe neither, I believe the dead man can feel one emotion and thats the emotion of existence. What do you think?

I read an interesting theory that there is a "mini-apocalypse" (sp) every time someone dies, because they figured that when you die, everything you have known ceases to exist...

I however (although I am not a Christian) believe in... some kind of Heaven, or just something. I don't know. I want to be surprised.

I think the idea of oblivion is infinately scarier that hell.

At least in hell you can make fun of the devil.

Are you terrified to go to sleep, Beany?

As for you, Skeleton: I think you're stupid, unless you can tell me why you believe that dead men can feel existence.

"It is easy to remove the mind from harping on the lost illusion of immortality. The disciplined intellect fears nothing and craves no sugar-plum at the day's end, but is content to accept life and serve society as best it may.

Personally I would not care for immortality in the least. There is nothing better than oblivion, since in oblivion there is no wish unfulfilled. We had it before we were born, yet did not complain. Shall we whine because we know it will return? It is Elysium enough for me, at any rate."

Naaa, when I sleep I dream.

Existence is the emotion that you feel all the time. When your not happy or sad you merely exist

while I don't think that oblivion is what happens for certain. The thought of it certainly doesn't scare me.

It would kick existing on earth at any rate... It isn't like you can worry about life having no meaning if you don't exist. http://www.totse.com/bbs/smile.gif (http://www.totse.com/bbs/smile.gif)
