budaatum: There is a difference between dying and being dead. Dying is not a state of death but the pathway to the state of being dead. Unforunately, nobody knows definitively what happens when humans are in the state of being dead but dying can actually be observed and even quantified physiologically. During the process of dying, depending on the severity and cause, the organs usually shut down one by one. It is not uncommon to hallucinate when the brain is in the process of shutting down. A common variable to to stories about people seeing heaven, God, Jesus, Allah and hell when they are in the process of dying is that it is culturally specific. For instance, a Yoruba man sees a Jesus that is black man wearing agabada speaking Yoruba, a white man sees Jesus in heaven wearing suit and tie. And so on. These near death experiences are usually our brain repacking the data in our subconscious mind to give us images and even stories. Just because these pictures can be very vivid does not mean its true. It is the power of our subconscious mind. The billion dollar advertisement industry is well aware of the power of the subconscious and tap into this to make their fortune. For example, when you go to the grocery store, where I live there could be up to 20 different brands of cereal. Have you ever stopped and ask why you picked the one you chose instead of the other perfectly good brands of the same cereal within the same price range? Your subconcious mind told you to do so. It may be due to an advert of that cereal you've seen as far back as when you were 3 years old that affects your decision to chose it. 1 Like |

sonofluc1fer: I am glad you can see that simply death with nothing thereafter makes the whole struggles, the pains, the amassing of wealth, educational pursuits all seem pointless. We cannot be this advanced as humans just so we can invent and build and explore and all for nothing. We cannot be this aware and even aware on behalf of other creatures, studying them, knowing their ways, all for nothing at the end of the day. So like you said, it honestly makes LIFE feel kind of pointless (if it all ends here) So why the effort at all for laws and order and morality if it all ends here? Mr Philosopher I am sure you can think deep about this and try to find sense in all the nonsense this world has to offer and how my words above are probably pointless and not worth deeply reflecting upon. |

dalaman: So you're saying the goats and chickens being killed everyday have their lives ended just like that? You're saying those goats won't stand in front of goat god and give account of how they lived their lives to the goat god? You're saying when chickens die, they stay dead? I hope you know according to the "Chicken Holy Revelation" which the chicken god wrote in the chickens' hearts that after they die they stand before chicken god on the day if judgement to give account of their lives and either go into the oven or go into paradise where they'll enjoy chicken feeds forever and ever while praising the chicken god? So you're telling me the chicken that breaks and sucks the juice of the eggs she shat out hereby committing chicken abortion won't face retribution after its dead? This is why I call atheists fools! 3 Likes |

hopefulLandlord: I really do not understand the point that there must be life after death for this life to be meaningful else it will be pointless. All the things that add meaning and value to our lives now that we are alive are not eternal, they are all temporary but they all add values to our lives. I fail to see how the fact that life ends here on earth makes it pointless. 3 Likes |

MuttleyLaff: When you answered my first post by saying "I could but then you'd have to be dead" that was not taking it personal, right? Straw man. It is a serious question. If your heaven exists at least you should have a video of it. After all these years no Christian has been able to come up with video of the highest price of heaven? What testimony? Is this turning into a circus or what? You said you have a witness and I asked how you got the testimony and you are busy making fun of yourself When did the question spree turn and become an argument? No problem. Bring up the bible in your discussion again and I will quote Harry Potter/spiderman so at least I know we are on the same level You can read whatever you like into it Boring. |

butterflyl1on: My understanding of soliq55 response was of "what happens just as one is dying and then doesn't" - a 'before dead and then not quite dead afterall'. I do not think it quite qualifies as a response to the question posed. However, in a way, yes, I am changing stance. Though, I was never "more focused on what happens when one is dead and not after". You make it sound like I was asking about the very instant one dies and not seconds after not to talk of days. Read the response to godisgood200, who has further informed the question further with his insightful observation. Even your response was to "what happens AFTER I die", so the question has already been taken to imply so by some, including yourself. |

budaatum:Fair enough. In a dicourse opinions are to be freely aired regarless of the fact that they are taken or rejected. It's a convo. Thanks for being so mature (rare atheist) As an atheist, when a person dies, it is my opinion that that is it. There is no after, according to my own opinion. Lolzzzz. I don't take likes seriously. It's good we allow tne opnions of others because no one has it all. I may not agree with you but you may still be right. That said; Do you want to wait to die to find out? You said no one has died and come back? Do you say that because you disbelieve the testimonies of those who had died and come back or you sincerely serious? I know a man by name Ali Sina. An IranianEx Muslim who left Islam and became an atheist. A very firece Atheist. He had a website 'www.Faithfreedom.org. Do you know how that man became a Christian? Testimonies of NEAR DEAD EXPERIENCES. No human being preached the gospel to him, infact, the gospel, he shredded and scorned at, he is now preaching it. Atheists like you die and come back, they all have stories to tell. If you doubt Christians,what about your brethren the atheists? A little girl of 5 died, met Jesus, when she came back, she painted the Master. You think a 5 yrs old will make that up? Anyway sha, die and then find out. But, remember that will be too late (or not). |
