Two thousand years ago, 967 Jewish men, women, and children reportedly chose to take their own lives rather than suffer enslavement or death at the hands of the Roman army. They were the last holdouts of the First Jewish Revolt against Rome, which had ended officially three years earlier, in 70 CE, with an unimaginable disaster: the destruction of Jerusalem and the Second Temple. During the revolt, these families found refuge atop Masada, a remote mountain overlooking the Dead Sea that had been fortified by King Herod the Great seventy years earlier. Now, however, they were besieged by an overwhelming Roman force, and it was clear the fortress would fall. At this critical moment, the rebel leader Eleazar Ben-Yair gathered the men together and convinced them to commit mass suicide. So persuaded, each man killed his own wife and children. Then the men gathered together and drew lots, determining which ten of them would put the others to death. The ten remaining men drew lots again, and one man killed the other nine before taking his own life, as the ancient Jewish historian Flavius Josephus describes: 2 Likes

I recommend two shows on Netflix.... One is about the US government programs on UFo and declassified information regarding UFO..... Second is about people's encounters with UFO Watch all these with an open mind, make no conclusions, just observations and see if u can draw parallels

HellVictorinho6:I have not make any assumption on my post except the fact that Spirituality is science , based on the fact that it follows guiding principles.... I do not claim to know anything, that's why i say it is paramount for humans to evolve to the Point where we can study and understand Spirituality for what it really is .. |

HellVictorinho6:Yes we know those things for certain,there are also cases of people who have bn said to reveal details of past lives ..some people have have been known to see spirits of departed loved ones....while i cannot independently verify these claims, if there's an iota if truth in them, it makes a case for the possibility of life after death |

What happens when we die? This question has puzzled the minds of many since the dawn of time....yet after thousands of years of human existence, we have not found concrete logical proof of what happens after death... So many theories have been put forth, i can summarize them into 3 categories The theory of death as the end.... This simply implies that with death comes the end of existence, no afterlife The theory of heaven and hell as reward based system of afterlife Some people believe their God will reward or punish them with heaven or hell after death, they believe we continue to exist after death. Reincarnation This theory states that a person's soul is energy that continues to exist after death, viewing the body as a container of the soul, after death, the soul simply finds another host.... What theory do u subscribe to? Personally, Reincarnation could be logical if there is existence of the soul, soul could be logical to exist if astral projection is true...i am in groups where people claim to have astral projected, i myself have come close to doing so.....it could make sense that our soul could be a software which needs a hardware (body) to come to life ..this body could be anything tho ... |
