[Debate] What do you think happens after you die?

[Forest]

Nothing for you. You won't be alive and so cannot be conscious. To be honest, the idea of an afterlife really disturbs me. One life is enough. Having to go through something else besides death would just suck.

^^^ she makes sense man

Nothing. Consciousness requires living functional brain. Without that there's no consciousness, so no awareness/perception.
What happens is that your body will rot and turn into worms, bones will remain, that's all.

Yes this too

According to ancient astronaut theorists, your mind is transported through a wormhole and the light at the end of the tunnel is the dimension in which our alien ancestors inhabit. But imo, heaven.

You either go to Heaven for following Jesus and doing what He wanted you to do on this earth, or you burn in hell for all eternity for not believing in Him.

Wow, that is very un-Christian like by god! Stop spreading your ridiculous ideologies on this site.

OT: I have never really given it much thought to be honest. In some religions they say you get "reborn" after you die in a different form or something.

OP did ask what we thought would happens when we die. So if speak my mind about something like this then I shouldn't say anything about it? Wow so much for free speech. Also it's God's rule's not mine. I'm just only His messenger carrying out His message in which He called every Christian to do.

 

[Srom777]

So if God says he's perfect then he's perfect?

He's perfect by His actions when He came to earth to be a human like us. He faced the same temptations and overcame sin, and death.

In Egypt he hardened the Pharaoh's heart so that he wouldn't let the Jews go and then got mad at the Pharaoh for not letting them go. He tried to prevent human kind from achieving knowledge and wanted us to be dumb like every other animal and only reproduce. He didn't give a crap about slavery until the Jews were the ones being enslaved. He sends people to Hell for being born homosexual. He flooded the entire Earth when he could have just changed people's hearts. He lets murderers into Heaven just for being born into a Christian family, but would punish a Muslim who saved a little kid from a burning building just for being born into a Muslim family. The God in the Old Testament appears to be sadistic, bigoted, and pretty darn hypocritical. Imo "God" is far from perfect.

Yes, you are entitled to your opinions. However it's MY opinion that your thoughts are stupid and the sort I would expect from someone who has Schizophrenia. It's also MY opinion that you should stop spreading your idiotic opinions on this site. You know the saying "Better to keep your mouth shut and appear stupid than to open it and remove all doubt". But of course, you are free to keep spewing your horseshit. I can't actually stop you..............

 

[Momochifanboy]

If you die you will find peace and that will be it.

God doesn't create evidence against anybody. The evidence is out there for all to see. It's up to you to believe it or not, but keep in mind that God will give everybody a chance to accept Him. On Judgement Day, God will show every non-believer who never accepted Jesus that He did give them a ton of chances and people to send them on their way for them to hear about Jesus and to accept them, but instead they denied those people that God sent.

There's literary zero evidence for the existence of a god and most of the scriptures' claims were long ago proven wrong. There's plenty of evidence against gods though.

While I am religious, I have always questioned God, and the afterlife. I used to be scared of death, scared that I would cease to exist, scared of nothingness. One day while I was thinking, I came across a concept that reassured me. 'If I were to have no conscious after my inevitable death, why would I have memories of right now?'. I've led myself to believe that I exist in the future, and that I still somehow am conscious of everything around me.

Short-term memory. It's chemistry bro.

The Bible says, "The truth about God is known to them instinctively. God has put this knowledge in their hearts. From the time the world was created, people have seen the earth and sky and all that God made. They can clearly see his invisible qualities, his eternal power and divine nature. So they have no excuse whatsoever for not knowing God" (Romans 1:19-20)

No one has an excuse for not knowing God. That knowledge comes to us naturally.much like the way we instinctively reach for water when we're thirsty. It's not something we have to learn. nd it's not just instinct that draws people to God. God uses visual aids too,his creation. We can see God through the divine design of nature.When someone responds to these instincts and "visual aids" and truly reaches out to God, God will make sure that person understands his or her need for Christ. God, who loves us beyond comprehension and wants everyone to go to heaven (2 Peter 3:9), will arrange the details for that person to know the gospel through a missionary, a tract, a Bible, whatever.

Only when they brainwash you. I have no such "instinct"

I'll still be spreading the Gospel regardless what you or everybody else just say. Also it's not my opinion. I'm not the one who created Christianity, it was Jesus Himself so it's not my opinion it's God's opinion. I'm just the messenger who is carrying out God's duty. Saying stuff like keeping your mouth shut and stop spewing theses ideologies will not make me stop so it's useless to say those things when you know I'm going to keep doing it.

 

[Srom777]

That's the exact same quote, I say when people say there is zero evidence.

 

[vasu 32]

Lord Krishna in ShrimadBhagvatgeeta

Spoiler

Never was there a time when I did not exist, nor you, nor all these kings; nor in the future shall any of us cease to be.

As the embodied soul continuously passes, in this body, from boyhood to youth to old age, the soul similarly passes into another body at death. A sober person is not bewildered by such a change.

Those who are seers of the truth have concluded that of the nonexistent [the material body] there is no endurance and of the eternal [the soul] there is no change. This they have concluded by studying the nature of both.

For the soul there is neither birth nor death at any time. He has not come into being, does not come into being, and will not come into being. He is unborn, eternal, ever-existing and primeval. He is not slain when the body is slain.

The soul can never be cut to pieces by any weapon, nor burned by fire, nor moistened by water, nor withered by the wind.

This individual soul is unbreakable and insoluble, and can be neither burned nor dried. He is everlasting, present everywhere, unchangeable, immovable and eternally the same.

It is said that the soul is invisible, inconceivable and immutable. Knowing this, you should not grieve for the body.
All created beings are unmanifest in their beginning, manifest in their interim state, and unmanifest again when annihilated. So what need is there for lamentation?

Some look on the soul as amazing, some describe it as amazing, and some hear of it as amazing, while others, even after hearing about it, cannot understand it at all.

Swami Vivekanand In an eloquent New York City lecture called “The Real and the Apparent Man” . Predicted scientific confirmation of the ancient Vedic non-dual philosophy of One Infinite Existence.

Spoiler

“According to the Advaita philosophy, ..this Maya or ignorance–or name and form, or, as it has been called in Europe, time, space, and causality–is out of this one Infinite Existence showing us the manifoldness of the universe; in substance, this universe is one. So long as any one thinks that there are two ultimate realities, he is mistaken. When he has come to know that there is but one, he is right. This is what is being proved to us every day, on the physical plane, on the mental plane, and also on the spiritual plane.

“What then becomes of all this threefold eschatology of the dualist, that when a man dies he goes to heaven, or goes to this or that sphere, and that the wicked persons become ghosts, and become animals, and so forth? None comes and none goes, says the non-dualist. How can you come and go? You are infinite; where is the place for you to go?

“So it is with regard to the soul; the very question of birth and death in regard to it is utter nonsense. Who goes and who comes? Where are you not? Where is the heaven that you are not in already? Omnipresent is the Self of man. Where is it to go? Where is it not to go? It is everywhere. So all this childish dream and puerile illusion of birth and death, of heavens and higher heavens and lower worlds, all vanish immediately for the perfect. For the nearly perfect it vanishes after showing them the several scenes up to Brahmaloka. It continues for the ignorant.”

“Time, space and causation are like the glass through which the Absolute is seen. In the Absolute there is neither time, space nor causation.”

“Science and religion will meet and shake hands…When the scientific teacher asserts that all things are the manifestation of one force, does it not remind you of the God of whom you hear in the Upanishads? Do you not see whither science is tending?”

“…this separation between man and man, between nation and nation, between earth and moon, between moon and sun. Out of this idea of separation between atom and atom comes all misery. But the Vedanta says that this separation does not exist, it is not real.”

“Your own will is all that answers prayer, only it appears under the guise of different religious conceptions to each mind. We may call it Buddha, Jesus, Krishna, but it is only the Self, the ‘I’.”

~ Swami Vivekananda – Jnana Yoga

Albert Einstein

Spoiler

“Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one.”


“Our separation of each other is an optical illusion of consciousness.”


“Space and time are not conditions in which we live, they are modes in which we think”



“That which is impenetrable to us really exists. Behind the secrets of nature remains something subtle, intangible, and inexplicable. Veneration for this force beyond anything that we can comprehend is my religion.”

I am a deeply religious man. I cannot conceive of a God who rewards and punishes his creatures, or has a will of the type of which we are conscious in ourselves. An individual who should survive his physical death is also beyond my comprehension, nor do I wish it otherwise; such notions are for the fears or absurd egoism of feeble souls. Enough for me the mystery of the eternity of life, and the inkling of the marvelous structure of reality, together with the single-hearted endeavor to comprehend a portion, be it ever so tiny, of the reason that manifests itself in nature. [The World As I See It]

On learning of the death of a lifelong friend, Einstein wrote in a March 1955 letter to his friend’s family:

“Now he has departed from this strange world a little ahead of me. That means nothing. People like us, who believe in physics, know that the distinction between past, present, and future is only a stubbornly persistent illusion.”

Different times, same conclusion as mine. Energy is nothing but what we know as Soul. It never dies, so there lies no heaven or hell where it can go to begin with. It just simply enters another body [reincarnation and rebirth]. Follow whoever you want. GOD, Sage or Scientist, as I mentioned above, all said the same thing. Maybe that's why Albert Einstein's words were never that hard for Eastern Civilization to understand, unlike many western people at his time, because it's in our roots.

Then be the very first religious person to provide evidence for your absurd claims if you insist they are true. I can claim there are dragons levitating above my bed and you can't disprove it, that's pretty much the same as your claims.

Oh please. Show me this zero evidence you speak of. Please show me, that way I can wake up and stop believing in this fairy tale!!

That's not what I'm talking about.
I'll elaborate:

If you get your memory erased some time in the future, no matter how far in time it is, you will not experience anything before you got your memory erased. If you die, basically, your concience and memory get erased, and you should not be able to percieve anything around you up until your death. It's a really interesting concept

I given lots of evidence to people like you who claim there is zero evidence. When I have never seen any evidence from the apposing side of things. So what evidence do you have that suggests that there is zero evidence about the existence of God. I have yet to see any.
