A philosophical inquiry about the afterlife


Discordian

Recommended Posts

Everyone has a different way of looking at things, but do we know for sure? Some may claim they do, but it's all merely a bunch of opinions. I'd rather wait and see what happens and live my life to the fullest instead of theorizing until the time truly comes.

I like to believe that the universe gave us life and when we die we will return to the stars and be one with the universe to give light to the life on the planets.


Just another background cat. Move along.

i wouldn't join another religion, i was just thinking that each religion goes by its own rewards and punishments.

 

But if you believe that every religion..well, is true, than that means you bear false witness to your own religion. It just really make sense to me.

Objection! Hold it! Take that! Gotcha! Eureka!

I like video games and anime.

Uh, no, not necessarily.

 

Religions don't say "the things told in these texts are 100% true, and anyone who disagrees is wrong".

It's people who say that, people who miss the point of religion: to educate with the help of fictional stories - and to teach historical/scientific facts (at least scientific by the standards of the time and place in which they were written) as well.

 

I don't know any religion that initially was as categorical as today's extremisms. Some sacred texts might incite believers to convert others, but to still consider them as their brethren (as far as I know).

It is later that manipulative humans, which are very much mortal and have ambitions, corrupted religion to their own purposes and imposed their own view of religious texts.

 

Otherwise, you can choose to believe in a certain religion, and still think they (yours and others) are all correct to a certain extent.

I would prefer to just stop existing. I have been given a life with a timer and nothing should ever be forever. If souls existed eternally heaven would be akin to continually filling a bucket with water with none of it ever leaking out.
