Afterlife? Reincarnation, rebirth, heaven, hell, eternal life?

[Lolli]

What do you think happens when this life ends??

[Silicate Wielder]

Reincarnation, you either are reincarnated in genral or when you go to heaven your still reincarnated in a way.

[Thunderstorm]

Rebirth. No hell. In your next life, you may be a flower. Or a Tree. Or a bird.

[VirtualGuy012]

Heaven or Hell

[Lolli]

I think we just die and that's our time, maybe if we have unfinished business we roam as a spirit but then I just think end

[Breakeven]

it depends :
1- see if u die in accident or someone kill u or etc i think u will reincarnation
2 - if u die normal u will go either hell or heaven but at the end everyone will go to heaven even the people in hell
3- about re-birthing i believe in that too
and eternal life that's in heaven

thats just the way i think right now ..

[Fuzzyevil]

@Hell or heaven based on your deeds!

[Jayman21]

you either go to heaven or hell thats what i believe.

[NotYourSombrero]

Rebirth. No hell. In your next life, you may be a flower. Or a Tree. Or a bird.

Not trying to be rude but, can you explain why you say what you say but you signature is of a different belief.

[Jess]

we cease to exist. when we die, we die. I don't believe in an afterlife.

[sammy1996]

I'll be the first one to say; Jack shit... you die and you die, your time living, seeing, breathing etc. is done. You dont re-incarnate or anything as you dont have souls, only living bodies made from cells etc, once you die they die.

Most people i know only dont believe in that out of being scared of death, but i'm not scared of a outcome like that as its just like sleeping.

[Error 404]

we cease to exist. when we die, we die. I don't believe in an afterlife.

Couldn't have said it better myself.Tho that's just IMO.

[Neptune]

Not sure. I haven't reached that point yet.

If I have a choice, I wanna be reincarnated.

[Amnesiac]

It amuses me how so many of you can give such a straightforward answer without even an ounce of explanation. "Oh, you get reincarnated." "You go to Heaven or Hell."

There is no evidence to support the existence of an afterlife. Death is a void that none of us can possibly imagine or predict. Speculating on what happens "after" it is a fantasy exercise that will never have any basis in reality. It is simply not possible to know. So why make up a bunch of theories about it?

[Mob Boss]

I think there are some things that don't have answers to them and this is one of them. I don't know what happens......no one does.

[Fractured Silhouette]

I hope I turn into a ghost. I'd love to fly around and scare the crap out of some people.

[risener]

I believe in heaven. I'm not sure of hell as a fire pit of doom or whatever. We had a class debate on this and someone said that hell could simply be life on earth without God.

[therunaway]

Well, I'm not sure honestly. No one knows, no one ever will know because once you die, you find out, but there is no way to tell the living. So, I don't know, I'm scared to find out.

[Taylorxbox]

*This is My Opinion*
I want to believe in god, and afterlife, but it's just hard to think that some guy is up there helping is through..
I mean it is proven that we came from apes and life started from the Big Bang. Science makes sense, god and all of that stuff, it's just hard to believe...
Plus, we don't have any proof or clue what happens after death. It's all made up. All we have is the "bible" saying what will happen.

In my mind, we made up all of this to make us feel better about dying. It (religion) also was there to help us be better and make better decisions in life. We want to feel like when we die, there is still something out there.
When we die, WE DIE, thats it. DONE.
It would be nice to come back to life some how, or have eternal life. But think about it. You actually think someone is up there that is going to take us in and let us continue to live? I want to think that, but it's hard to. We made it up.

As far as ghosts/spirits; I think there is something out there. Some other life form of some sort. I just don't know. But I believe in ghosts and some sort of spirit out there.

[whatevva]

Nothing happens...life goes on without you

@It is clearly said in my religion that after death your spirit will go to place(dnt knw it's name) !

@And then, as they say "On the Day of Judgement'' You will go to heaven or hell based on your deeds as i mentioned above!

@Every religion has their own concepts about death!

@I respect other believes too!

[Reagan Smash Bros]

Well you see, that light at the end of the tunnel you see when you are about to die is actually the vagina opening and BAM reborn as a baby!

No but seriously no one knows but I think nothing happens you just die....

[Amnesiac]

Neither of those things actually explain why such a process occurs in the first place. Where's the evidence? The scientific analysis? "It is clearly said in my religion." On a debate board, that doesn't pass as a reliable source on the afterlife.

@Every religion has their own concepts about death!

Doesn't mean any of them are correct, though. Or possible, for that matter.

@I respect other believes too!

Sure, but we're debating. Religious concepts will get just as much scrutiny as any other idea on this board. I'm not going to give some special "respect" to religious beliefs as if they're immune to criticism.

[Thunduhbuhlt]

Heaven or Hell. Possible reincarnation or rebirth in some cases. I don't need a reason or cause, because I have my religion and you have yours.

[Dark Blue]

I believe in heaven and reincarnation. So I guess one of those two, I believe even if you have a normal death you will be reincarnated into another human being. I dont believe in rebirth through animals, plants, etc. Call me out if you want but that's quite ridiculous to me. Living the life of a flower, really?

@It's written in our holy book...! We, (as when we were) kids are brought up with this concept that when you die you'll go to heaven or hell based on your dead's! This all i want to say!

@I am actually hesitating to give proof!

"because it says so in a holy book" is not proof. You are hesitating to give any reasoning or scientific explanations because it cannot be produced.

[Fuzzyevil]

@I am a 'Muslim' and 'Islam' as being my religion..it taught me that 'There will be "Day of Judgement" and each person form whichever religion he/she belongs will go to hell or heaven'.

@It is written in my holy book..! Here is one site that tells about death (Islam) !

@And one more thing i hope you're not thinking i am one of the bad person as some people thing as i am a Muslim! :)

@I respect other believes too! :)

[deadpie]

I don't really understand why people think reincarnation is such a beautiful and interesting concept. I think it's pretty stupid. Someone says if you do something really bad in your life you'll be reborn as a cockroach. The thing is the cockroach doesn't even have the brain to understand the concepts of murder, rape, betrayal, and other bad things. The cockroach simply does not care! He's just a fucking cockroach looking to survive. Nothing more. He cannot process those thoughts because he doesn't have the intelligence of a human.

It's pretty much the same with just about any bug or plant you would be reincarnated as. It really doesn't matter because they don't care. They don't really have any moral philosophies. There's nothing beautiful about being reincarnated as a flower that gets stepped on, plucked, dried out to death, pulled out or eaten by a pet dog. Or even pissed on too.

Get reincarnated into an animal that lives in a jungle or forest? Learn about survival instincts and live in a dogeatdog world? WOW! That sounds so beautiful and fun! I would love to do that. Yippie! Same with creatures of the ocean.

[Neverender]

We die. That's it. There's not an incentive in the world that can bring you back after you die. Completely athiest view.

[Smeagol]

I think that it's reincarnation. Why? Well...

Every living creature in the world has energy. Birds, trees, slugs, humans, everything. It's proven that we need energy to stay alive. And when we die, that life energy has to go somewhere. I think that it gets recycled, somehow. Not just the energy of our flesh that rots away, but the energy that is our consciousness.

[ShaneSawyer]

i would like to say that there is an afterlife of some sort. mainly due to the fact that my biggest fear is dying. but sadly, i really can't say and odds are that it just ends. nothing more and nothing less. it's hard to believe, but it makes the most sense compared to all other things.

[RedViper]

In my opinion once you die, that's it, you're dead.

[TronMau5]

Id love to think that we just come back in another shape and form. Reincarnation would be insanely epic.
But then I believe we will be judged in the end, Heaven or Hell and all that stuff.
Truthfully, Ive been thinking, and I truly dont know what happens after death. Ill just leave it in the air and stay faithful to my religion.
I mean you gotta believe in something. Otherwise you'll go insane.

[Neverender]

Buddhists believe that we have all lived as animals at some point. We just don't remember it. I think that could be a fascinating reality if there was any scientific basis. Just believing it won't make it true however so I patently refuse any religious belief.

[dontfiguremeout]

In my belief, I believe there is a Heaven and a Hell. I believe I'm going to Heaven because I accepted God into my life, and I am a true follower of God. This is just my belief though, and I respect everyones belief as I hope people respect my belief.

Personally, I think of that as a celestial North Korea where you worship "The Dear Leader" [God in this case] for eternity. Or perhaps pre-cold war Japan where the Emperor WAS a God himself by the Shinto religion.

It's the whole "eternity" thing that turns me off.

[ayelove100]

What do you think happens when this life ends??

The muslim religion is soo great. It talks about all of this. When you die you dont exactly go to heaven. There are many things that happen in your grave. You then stay in ur grave until the day of judgement comes. This dad all dead people will either go to hell or heaven based on what they did in life. Learn about the muslim religion more. What introduced me to the religion was my best friend. She looks like a normal American, but when we became best friends she took me to a mosque and i learned all about the true religion. Many people used to say many things about the religion but they never learned about the religion. They just based it on the people in the religion. I reccommend you learn about it because it truely is a very peaceful and thr right religion. Private message me if u have any questions :).
