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?
An update on the OFCOM situation: As you know, censorship around the world has been ramping up at an alarming pace. OFCOM, the UK’s communications regulator, has singled out our community, demanding compliance with their Online Safety Act despite our minimal UK presence. This is a blatant overreach, and they have been sending letters pressuring us to comply with their censorship agenda.
Our platform is already blocked by many UK ISPs, yet they continue their attempts to stifle free speech. Standing up to this kind of regulatory overreach requires lots of resources to maintain our infrastructure and fight back against these unjust demands. If you value our community and want to support us during this time, we would greatly appreciate any and all donations.

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?
I think daily about death, I sometimes imagine my deathJust curious but what are everyone's thoughts about death? Do you believe we continue to live in a spiritual body, reincarnation, or just oblivion?
That would be pretty cool but I agree and think science says it just ends when our body does. How I look at it is when you have that deep sleep where you don't dream at all and just wake up after. Death probably feels like that minus the waking up part.Rationality and science tells us that there is nothing after death; only the void. Hence the term "call of the void" experienced by people who feel the urge to jump at high places.
But a small part of me still hold that belief that after death our consciousness will elevate to become part of the universal mind, or universal consciousness.

There was a miniseries 'Childhood's End' that portrayed the concept.
What kids? Send the linkWhat do you guys think about those kids who remember their past lives and itsverified?
I believe it but most people don't.What do you guys think about those kids who remember their past lives and itsverified?
The reason I arrived at my belief can be scientifically intepreted, I think. Neuroscientific evidence has suggested that consciousness is a product of the organization of energetic activity in the brain. According to the law of conservation of energy, energy cannot be destroyed.That would be pretty cool but I agree and think science says it just ends when our body does.

the same as it was before you were born, its not "nothing", there is something people simply don't remember itJust curious but what are everyone's thoughts abo'ut death? Do you believe we continue to live in a spiritual body, reincarnation, or just oblivion?
If we have spirit guides they did a shitty job watching over us and should be firedI don't believe in oblivion. I can't look out at the night's sky and see all that's out there. Then think that it's all nothing. Consciousness exists for a reason. What it is, I have no clue. I want to believe that, in catching the bus, I actually gain some type of ultimate autonomy and understanding of myself on levels I could never have possibly imagined in this physical body. There's just something about letting life play out and kill me anyway that seems a bit... I don't know. I guess I'm just unsettled by the idea of living on someone else's clock. I'm a rebellious soul and want to be able to control and take care of myself. Whatever or whoever is supposed to be watching over me did a shitty job in this life. So, I want nothing to do with it in any other life.
I say all that to say that I have no idea what's after death from this life. I'm looking forward to it, though.
That's what I feel. MOST people don't remember, some kids do.the same as it were before you were born, its not "nothing", there is something people simply don't remember it
Where do think our energy goes?The reason I arrived at my belief can be scientifically intepreted, I think. Neuroscientific evidence has suggested that consciousness is a product of the organization of energetic activity in the brain. According to the law of conservation of energy, energy cannot be destroyed.
Hence when our body cease to function, or the state of brain dead, that energy (or consciousness) has to transfer somewhere, since it cannot cease to exist. I'm not a scientist, I could be wrong. But that's how I intepreted it.
Some other dimensionWhere do think our energy goes?
What makes you believe in reincarnation? Guinely curiousi am honestly not sure. im split between reincarnation and oblivion. i wouldnt mind being reincarnated... not any time soon though.
Past life regressions. Though I am very skeptical about them, some seem pretty real. James Leininger for example.What makes you believe in reincarnation? Guinely curious![]()
