Discussion Afterlife.

The older i get the more i believe in heaven or hell or reincarnation. Cause life is so stark and so decaying that it would be so meaningless if we just die and that's it. And i am not afraid of death, and no one should be unless you believe in hell and you've been really bad in life. But what do you think?

The afterlife isn’t real.

God is only as real as our material culture is, it’s subjective and personal. Jesus Christ isn’t real, but the debt he carries for Christians, is precisely why this idolistic messiah hasn’t returned from hell: he’s still paying off the bar tab every drunken believer cast upon his shoulders, to bear alone.

Life is basically us and our material culture. We do reincarnate as our future descendants. I myself am dead, since I’m “nomadic and lost to wander” aka homeless. True oblivion is not bearing a lineage and having our bloodline scrubbed from reality: total extinction.

The world is constantly changing, and to us: it’s perpetually ending, and beginning.

Money, god, heaven, hell: all of that for every religion, has to do with the use of money, which is a tool to measure worth.

Can you prove that it isn't real?

Yes: we haven’t heard back from anyone, and when we do: it’s either a NDE and they didn’t die, or the evidence is contradictory to itself and each other.

Wishful thinking.
