Discussion Existence…

[SolomonKado]

I understand that people want to know what comes "after" CTB. So they won't be so scared of it. I did too…until it started to piss me off.

You start asking about existence and then someone comes along with a video describing how their "truth" is the only right one. I don't see it that way. I just see everyone wants you to believe in what they feel is right.

There are so many ideas and beliefs that it just makes it more scary and confusing. So then how is any of it actually true? Just because you believe in it….doesn't make it real. Wether it's a bright tunnel and then science says it's just your brain flickering out or the freaking Illuminati…

I would rather be told by "everyone" that it really is nothing. I don't want to believe hell is after, but if it is then I want to end this torment so I can get ahead and start that one. No reason to drag this all out.

If there is torment after then i am more pissed off at whatever or whoever is running this place because going to hell for getting away from this hell by your own hands is just dumb. Means that the "one in charge" really has no compassion…it's not like I touched a bunch of kids's "no no squares" or raped and/or murdered people for fun. I just did my best while I was here and helped a few people while I was at it and forever punished myself when I screwed up….why punish something you created to be like this anyways? It's asinine….

It will just be what it is, and sooner or later we'll all find out for ourselves. If, that is, there remains some form of "ourselves" to find out.

This, and countless other reasons, are why I've always said that even if Christianity were scientifically proven correct, I wouldn't become a Christian, but instead a Theistic Satanist.

I very strongly believe that we just cease existing after this, I believe death to be nothing more than a dreamless, eternal sleep, it's permanent freedom from all suffering.
But anyway when it comes to people discussing what they believe happens the fact is that no matter what we all have to die someday, death is completely inescapable, we are destined for nothing but to cease existing.

Honestly, I think a better world would be an atheist one, without all that heaven and hell crap that just gets used to traumatize kids, invalidate people, and villainize folk that are just trying to be comfortable with themselves. By maintaining religious belief even with every new discovery, we are condemning humanity to evolve backward, to value quantity of life over quality of life, and to place value in all the meaningless or temporary things. We gave rise to Gods and so gave rise to even more suffering.
