      reincarnation and a afterlife in heaven or hell or wherever it may be are ideas beliefs there not yet proven. but metamorphosis on the other hand is very real its proven. consider this life after life in a new form . today we are caterpillars. but maybe just maybe tomorrow we might become the butterfly. if death is the end and there is only darkness. we will be none the wiser .but while aware think big. think the imposable .

      - All there really is - is this moment. The future is not here yet and the past already gone --- oooops the moment I began writing this reply is gone now forever!

      There is only one life - there is no beginning nor end and we are all part of it! One massive field of vibrations forever in flux.

    I do not believe in life after death. Who dies goes into "deep sleep" until Jesus returns to earth.

    I do have a hope that there is life after death.  As I grow older in my years, I'm not sure certain how that life will be, or what transpires there.  I don't know forsure there is a heaven, and I'm not real sure if I still believe in "heaven" the same as some of Christian counterparts do.  However, this I do know for certain; what happens to us in the afterlife is not what we humans need to be worrying about.  It is how we choose to live our life for today, what we do for the good of it, and ultimately how we choose to end our day.  Too many people worry about the afterlife- that they forget to live in harmony with THIS life.

    It depends what you mean by life after death.

    Some organs can survive temporarily upon death. You really need to define what you mean by death first.  The death of the heart? The brain? The mind? If the brain dies then the mind dies  too. The mind is not inseperable from the brain. Or did you mean your spirit? Then you would need to define what you mean by your spirit.

    Luckily, I don't believe in life after death,

    The Bible says to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord.  What great hope!  The minute I leave this body, I will be with Jesus!  When my daughter died, knowing that she was then in the arms of Jesus, was such a comfort.  I don't know how those who don't believe in Jesus Christ can go through the death of loved ones.  It would be so hard not knowing where they are at.

      It is hard not knowing anything. I would like to see them in the afterlife as anyone else. This does not make me decide a grouped belief that contradicts individualism out of fear. Belief should not be grouped or linked with fear. I would rather explore to what I don't know than to be content with assumptions to group my belief.

        quietnessandtrustposted 15 years agoin reply to this

        Yes it does, that is a fear of Someone who is Holy and if you have ever seen Him you would have fear and His appearance would put you on your face, experience spoken.

        This fear is not like the fear spoke of when it says fear not, like in men, animals, places, people, things, weather, famine, earthquakes etc...

        Holy fear means a "separated (holy) fear".....the word holy means separated.

    Our physical form is just one stage of our spiritual life.  The Universe is a part of all of us as we are a part of it.

    Not that I cannot wait to die but depth of knowledge that is gained after death is going to be huge and mind blowing.

    Death is just the beginning for most of us.

    And I'm not talking about a god or heaven or any of that jazz.

          They do not make themselves out to be someone special, they just say what they experienced and they have similarities and differences as to what happened to them.

    Seen as the reality we accept could be very easily an illusion, I will stick with the reality we accept with this disucssion.
    Life after death does not exist, unless you feel your "soul" will reawaken in someone else's brain. Scientifically and in the known world, it is impossible.

    I do not believe in death. I believe in change. we do not stop "being". We just end being "here and now", then we begin being "where and when". We have to put away the tools and toys of this experience, and plan for the next one..if we want to.

    From a religious stand point...I hope so, and I believe that there is an afterlife where there is no more suffering and everything is peaceful and beautiful.

    From a scientific stand point...Yes.  Humans are made up of energy and since energy never ceases to exist there is life after death.

    So anyway you slice it, there is an afterlife.

    It seem to appear that people's perception of life is skewed.

    Yes, some of the religious teachings you use to explain your own existence, will eventually cost you your life.

    Death only happens when your body can no long function, because the energy pulsating throughout your body ceases to exist.

    Once that energy disappears- You are DEAD!

    There is not another life, but the one you are presently living.
