Just curious but what are everyone's thoughts about death? Do you believe we continue to live in a spiritual body, reincarnation, or just oblivion?
I'm leaning towards reincarnation. I like living but not with my current health problems.i am honestly not sure. im split between reincarnation and oblivion. i wouldnt mind being reincarnated... not any time soon though.
I don't think we know we are dead...sometimes I think we just wake up in a different body.I want there to be more after death, but I don't believe that.
I believe that our consciousness is the culmination of our brains and internal chemistry working together to create us. Disrupt the machine and you disrupt consciousness.
Before we were born was nothingness; most people can't even remember their first handful of years.
Once we slip away, I think that's it. We may not even realize it's happened. Like falling asleep, it's just nothing all at once. We only realize that it was nothing if we wake up again and have that context
Lots of people hope it's nothing but out of body experiences seems like there more.I want there to be more after death, but I don't believe that.

I understand your point. In this case, searching for meaning in the afterlife is like looking for numbers in a turned-off calculatorImo a human is only cells , a machine , a bug . Can a laptop fly or chatgpt have an afterlife? No neither can a human.
I'm glad this horror this brain ( me) I'm imprisoned in will cease to exist forever after Death
A brain that can suffer unbearable pain.
Given my understanding of humanity's (scientific) understanding of reality, yeah, cessation of consciousness means obliteration of it on every level. And that, to me, has a peace to it.I want there to be more after death, but I don't believe that.

I really have no ideal and struggle with this. I really want it to be over when we die. I don't want to exist anymore in any form.Just curious but what are everyone's thoughts about death? Do you believe we continue to live in a spiritual body, reincarnation, or just oblivion?
