            There is no such thing as the Afterlife or Reincarnation.

            Religions were invented to keep the stoopids believing in something.

            I have proof that the Afterlife and Reincarnation does not exist (can't show it to you because you're not Illuminati).

            This is your one and only life.

                  A 33rd or those in the Illuminati would never publicly acknowledge that

                  That’s part of their oath
                  Their power
                  Their secret (society)…..

                  The further society drifts from the truth the more it will hate those who speak it.

                    Death may be just a concept to keep us pushing into sharing energy through the universe.
                    It's a waste of time to think about it since you can't prove anything. But, it's true that the more energy you produce, the better you feel, then maybe that's our purpose and the fear of death keeps this role alive.
                    Chasing freedom till you get it also could be a purpose so you decide where to share that energy.

                      Life and Death are Normal.

                      It's true that really thinking about death can cripple certain egotistical ways of life, but I don't think it's crippling all-in-all.

                        Not to get too "new age-y" but at a material level, there is unity. Even the Trinity appears to be a way of saying that opposition or dualism exists within a third "something" of space and time. When I began learning about how Church theology is Aristotle and Augustine (and ultimately Plato) - Jewish, Egyptian, Babylonian, and other myths and stories aside - I saw a big problem interpreting scripture literally which is what basically everyone does.

                        Anyways, if it's an end it's also a beginning. What was becomes what is. Death becomes things and people and animals, but the living absorb those absences and transformations too. We could reject and deny death. The book "Denial of Death" by Ernest Becker makes the argument that that's what we do in order to live. I haven't read it entirely but it discusses self vs body, things like this. He mentions how the dread of death may be serving a function that is not concerned with the literal reality. That would have some biological and symbolic implications. From Ernest Jones' biography of Freud, Becker quotes:

                        Freud always faced with complete courage any real danger to his life, which proves that the neurotic dread of dying must have had some other meaning than the literal one.

                        Anyways, I don't know. Some of these figures are heroic. When you read about martyrs they seem to want to die - whether Christians, Muslim, etc. They seem to be bent on reward in the afterlife or on their unworthiness in this life. But that seems to be a distraction from the dread of the idea of death, which is why I think the "reward" of heroes, soldiers, brave people, is also something about having fulfilled this life in the very act of dying, simplifying it. The way so many people say "die for this country," it's implied that serving is dying and that for this cause or that cause may not align with everyone's idea of a just cause of war and a Good or moral death. The idea of accidental deaths or overdoses or compromising deaths makes us cringe at how we live. There are tragic deaths and peaceful deaths but everything is dying... and being born. Jonah in the Whale is the Sun being reborn. The birth (resurrection) is the three-day period when the Sun is at its lowest before slowly rising after the winter solstice. The spring equinox is the correct New Year from ancient times. Sometimes it's good to dwell on the idea that you might be struck down tomorrow, and get your affairs in order.

                        I think about death every day and in different ways, maybe not consciously. Weird how "born again" Christians rely on the birth concept when birth is also the opposite of death... so Puritans or harsh sects might be the opposite, preaching death and mortification of the flesh.

                          No its actually ok, they gave me special permission to tell you idiots that theres no such thing as the Afterlife.

                          Im actually glad that youre christian though, because we actually need idiots believing in christianity to make the world a better place.

                          How is your husband David doing by the way? I heard he recently got promoted at his job. Good for him.

                              The misguided feeling of reincarnation that everyone has is probably just blood memories, or an awareness of the boundless nature of consciousness.

                              Life is about preparing you for death. Schopenhauer is right in that this life could not justify itself or be of any meaning unless it grasps beyond itself. My advise is to reflect joyfully on death as often as you can as this is the closest you can get to heaven before you get there. There are glimpses of the Beatific vision around every corner.

                              Put yourself on fire for peak energy metabolism.

                              Ignore, judge, overcommit.

                                Death comes for everyone, but the Bible is clear that it is appointed for man to die once, and then comes the judgment (Hebrews 9:27-28).
                                I don't fear death because I know Christ imputed His righteousness on me and His blood has cleansed me of my sin. There is a second death the Bible talks about (Revelation 20:14-15), and it's for those who reject Christ's free gift of salvation, the forgiveness of sins, which leads to eternal life. This second death is eternal separation from God.

                                If you don't want to fear death anymore, and want to have your sins forgiven, submit your life to Christ! Jesus saves 🙂

                                16 “For this is how God loved the world: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life."
