Why Do Humans Think They Are Meant To Live A Life Without An End? by Millz404(m): 1:55pm On Jun 04, 2017 |
This is something that i got thinking of some days ago. Look at every physical thing on earth, it seems to have a start point and an end. Flies live for 28days, dogs 15 years, trees and other plants, varied lengths. You buy a piece of hardware, as soon as you open it and start using it, it deteriorates until it becomes unusable. That is just how it is with the physical world we find ourselves. Courtesy of various religious teaching humans with an 80year lifespan believe there weren't meant to just start and end. They are meant to live and keep living be it through resurrection, reincarnation etc. Why do humans believe they have an eventuality different from that of every other physical thing they are a part of? |

This is what I've been telling these religionists on NL. We will all die, how bad can it be? Stop spreading ancients myths as facts just because you are scared of the obvious. What makes us so special? Hardmirror have been trying to express this fact. They seem not to understand. Religion is truly an opium. You can't blame someone for hoping though. But let's admit if it's mere hope and belief. There are those who have asked that their dead body be freezed and kept, perhaps someday, science would have achieved the knowledge of how to bring them back to life. Who can blame them? There is no God, heaven or hell. Except it applies to all other animals, only then will it be an objective assumption. 3 Likes |

ScepticalPyrrho: This has to do with God and the same time nothing to do with God . Other non theistic religions which atheists are part of talk of reincarnation and eternal life outside this universe . Don't atheists believe in reincarnation too ? There are people who acknowledge the existence of God yet reject the idea of eternal life . Anything beyond the ken of the ignorant Nairaland atheist means there is no God . |

Millz404: Because we are different from other animals . We have spirits or unembodied conscious minds which can exist without an end . And our spirits are our true selves . Only the Almighty Creator can destroy the spirit . |

ScepticalPyrrho:And I was talking about ignorant Nairaland atheists . I made it clear bro Don't mention me. You people always say nonsense and get angry when someone criticizes the rubbish you say . Everything that seems incomprehensible from your perspective just means there is no God . 'Religion is an opium' - I mean how does this even affect God's existence ? Too much nonsense honestly |

CoolUsername: Wishful thinking ? Like the multiverse or eternal universe you hope exists ? I've told you that I can use idealism to prove that unembodied minds exist . You ran away as usual . |

KingEbukasBlog: Multiverse, really? I said it was a possibility which I can't hold as fact due to lack of evidence. Idealism to prove unembodied minds? I'll like to hear that one. |

ScepticalPyrrho:Both humans and kangaroos have souls. We all transit to other realms after death. We are energy(gods), we can't be created or destroyed, but we can be transformed from one form to another. |

What if consciousness is transcendent? what if consciousness as a projection of energy gets recycled? what if we are in a matrix, like the actual reality is somewhere beyond here, we wake up after our time here is done? What if there is an infinite copy of us? [should be the case if the universe is infinite] what if there is indeed a spirit and as plato said made of finely special atoms - the body is a prison for the soul? Could it be that Democritus is correct that thought, mind, consciousness is a product of matter ? Questions that can be stretched and discussions we could enjoy 1 Like |

johnydon22:Of course it is . Consciousness is eternal what if we are in a matrix, like the actual reality is somewhere beyond here, we wake up after our time here is done? DeepSight believes that we are in a simulated reality . Could it be that Democritus is correct that thought, mind, consciousness is a product of matter ? Matter is just a vehicle , it is not a product of it . |

Millz404: Because we have a super conscious experience within which we are able to see and feel the mortal body for what it is - namely a mere encasement. This leads us to understand that upon the removal of the encasement, that which it encased must stand in a reality open to unencased energies such as itself. 2 Likes 1 Share |
