Is there an afterlife

[HappyAsHellas]

When you're dead that's it - game over. Who the hell would want to live forever anyway? My idea of hell would be stuck somewhere nice with your family for eternity. Boxing day I never want to see half of them ever again!

I think that when you die that’s the end, but I’m always open minded on this subject. As I said in my op I don’t believe in a religious afterlife, but from a scientific point of view it can’t be ruled out. There’s so much we don’t understand about the universe it’s impossible to rule anything out. If I’m being honest though I still think it’s a human response to not want death to be the end. Self awareness is a miracle that we are all blessed with(apart from Jambo’s obviously) but it doesn’t mean we’ll continue on after we die anymore than your pet dog will.

If I go to heaven and there's no dogs there then I'll be asking to go wherever they are.

If you go the heaven and there are no dogs, then im pretty sure you're in hell.

If I end up in hell and there's no dogs then I've played a blinder.

I'm of the opinion that once you're gone, you're gone. There's nothing and you won't know anything about it as you'll cease to be. The point about it being like before you were born is pretty much what I think happens. I think we're all here as a happy accident, a result of billions of pieces of good fortune throughout history eventually leading to each of our own conceptions. The same can be said for mould, or funghi, or seaweed, etc... the big difference is that we had the good fortune to have brains for conscious thought and evolved through the ages to where we are now.

At the end of the day though, we're just matter, and so I think when the time comes that's that. It won't hurt, we won't be sad, we won't miss anyone.. we'll just cease to be (in my opinion).

At some point, in a few billion years time, the sun will stop burning and even before that point life on earth will be unsustainable through changes in carbon dioxide levels (that's if we don't screw things up with climate change ourselves). Our fate will be the same as other planets in other solar systems that have had their sun die.

That might all be compatible with the idea of an afterlife (which, in itself is pretty well tied in to the acceptance of religious beliefs) but I don't see it myself, and so that's what forms my opinion.

Haven’t you seen All Dogs go to Heaven?

Best film ever made!

More or less ehat i think too. Slightly troubled by theoretical arguments like quantum, which suggest we know very little about micro partical behaviour....of which we are all composed...and the changes to accepted physics on that domain. Nature wouldnt evolve such an intelligent and sophisticated being just to turn it to dust..
Would it? 🙄

Yes there is. Rangers FC died in 2012 and were then reincarnated!

For what's it's worth:
I think when you're deid that's it.
No afterlife whether you're religious or not.

BUT, if I am wrong, I sincerely hope there are no dogs there.
Horrible, smelly, needy, bitey creatures. I hate them.

Give me eternity in a nothingness oblivion rather than be stuck with those ****ers!

It’s okay in the Afterlife they pick up their own ******.
