Death.....

[Deacon]

what do people here think what happens what are you ideas

i belive you will be just going along then i guess it go's black and thats it....your gone hard to explain i guess

i think it go's blank but we would not be aware of it

i am also scared shitless of death.....i think this has something to do with my age..... soon as you get old 70+ i guess you done it all and are not all that bothered

whats peoples ideas

bit of a morbid mood here dont know why :confused:

[A. Waterfield]

Well i think when ure dead ure dead NOTHING MORE


also scares the siht out of me.

[Leon]

as a spiritualist, i believed that i had proof of life after death.
my trust has lapsed a bit, but i still think that there is an "after"
i guess as an ex-medium its sorta my job lol

there is an after and there is nothing to be frightened of.

[Iain s14]

I agree with deathstar and alex, once your dead that's it. It doesnt worry me about dying, it'll happen someday so whats to worry about. (cheerful subject this)

[PhilMorrison]

lifes a fuse, blow it and that's it..

[Phil L]

hmmm, confession me thinks....

there are times when it suddenly dawns on me that I'm going to die, I get real freaked like 'shhiiiiittt, I'm gonna die'...but for a split second only. Can be anytime its a bit quiet and I'm thinking about stuff, like matrix for instance.
Its not often but occasionally.
I don't know why I'm writing this on a public forum, maybe therapy I guess...get it out in the open. I once told a friend about this and he told me he's done the same. I was so relieved it wasn't just me.

However, I do believe there is something beyond death, and at least, in that belief I can continue my life as happy as I can be, rather than moping around depressed and stuff.
How or what it will be like is beyond my comprehension, and I don't think there is a satisfactory answer.

[Leon]

if it helps, death is pure love

[Zenki]

It's a very emotive subject. I believe in the spiritual side of the arguement as far as that I believe in "ghosts". It sounds daft but I have close friends who have experienced things they cannot explain. I don't really know what could happen when you physically die? I feel the body has some kind of "lifeforce" while it is living and this ,I assume, is transferred to some other purpose when you physically die. Don't have a clue what it is but it does not really worry me.
My "motto" for life is "if you cannot have any effect on the outcome of something then don't tear yourself up worrying about it. Just deal with the result!"
My only concern is the effect my death will have on friends and family, I will not know much about it!

[Deacon]

the "sunlife over 50 plan " i laugh at it then i get pissed off.....

final expencises

oh FFS

let someone elce deal with it :D ill be dead :wack:

[Keith_C]

I'm scared I might die in some stupid way far too early.

Personally I want to die aged 93 by falling onto my Lambo after slipping while climbing out the window of my 18yo girlfriend's bedroom while being chased by her shotgun wielding father who's just found out I made her pregnant.

Now *that's* a class way to go :D

[Cthugha]

i hope i live on in my offspring.

AS for me, i`m knackered and need a rest. Hope there
is nothing but some peace and quiet. i.e nothing. caput

finally rest.

[andyf]

Keith you're weird.

Let's see... we have no conscious memory of pre-birth...

I entertain the following possibilities:

1. "I" as a person am a result of the function of the brain. If my brain ceases all activity when I die, then there will be no more me. There is no afterlife. This is because I have no soul. All that I am, is my brain. This is a very odd way of thinking because how can there be 'nothing'. Surely there must be 'something'.

so moving onto

2. When I die, my consciousness will be removed from my body and exist in a supernatural / nth dimensional entity. An afterlife, as it where. I would like to think I will become some kind of non-corporeal entity that can come and go through the universe as I please, although unable to interact with anything else other than maybe other afterlife members.

There is also:

3. At the moment of zero brain functionality (Am I right in thinking that a physical death does not mean a sudden zero'ing of brain activity, and that there is some function for a short while after?) a person's consciousness is transferred to a new host, be it another human (born-again), or other.


I am intrigued by the whole notion. Reading a lot of science fiction has certainly widened my curiosity. Luckily (not for some ;) ) it seems my curiosity has not yet got the better of me and I have no current plans to commit suicide to satisfy it :)

[SteveCarter200]

When you are dead, thats it, game over. Brain function is just a series of electrical signals generated by the bodies energy. No more energy, no more brain function, the end.

If your consciousness lives on after death then there would be an awful lot of pissed off spirits floating about, hacked off that they didnt finish life in the way they wanted or didnt acomplish their lifes goals.



Possibly a bit depressing but you arent going to mope about it after you die so just get on with life.

[TheSlipper]

Why be afraid of death we all know it's coming it's the one thing we can't avoid.
The only thing you should be afraid of is not fulfilling your life's dream, be it a six pack or bagging that blonde you fancy.
Life is our one chance to do what we want to do....and here we are spending it at work/home/on the internet...I'm afraid now.

[SteveDunn]

My personal theory that evolved from far too much lager is that when you cork it, you start over again... Repeating things over and over and over again.

Of course i thought of this whilst trying to explain deja-vu... Which is all my theory does :)

Don't shoot holes in my theory cos i'm not listening.. lalaalaaala :D

[TAS]

Death doesnt bother me at all... I am very interested in what happens when you die... but I aint going to find out just yet..

Death will happen to every1 at some given point... you cannot avoid it so why worry about it.... make the most of what you have and the mo...

Hence the term "Life is too short" but who knows.... in about 50 years they might be able to freeze people and bring them back to life.... but the question is.... would you want that?

PML :D :D

This thread is depressing.

Is there life after death? The best place to look for an answer is Here (http://JAPcruising.vze.com).

[Lenagh]

Death is when your weener stops working.

[gaz.thomas]

I tend to think that death is a subject to be dealt with by flippant comments and changing of subject. 'I hope I come back as kylie's knickers' and 'anyone see worcestershire/warwickshire in the twenty20 cup last night?'

This is a bit feaky and just me being daft I'm sure, but when I was a kid and sometimes even now I have a dream that I am clad chainmail and fighting in some woods, people have a strange english accent and I get the feeling it's a medievel period. I start to go for someone with a dagger and thud I look down and see a bolt from a crossbow in my chest, then fade to black. thats it, started when I was pretty young and the detail is pretty good, I would also think it's why I have a fasination of history.

Now the realy freaky part, since I was about 15 I started to have a pain in my chest whenever I touched the skin near the chest bone which leads to the coller bone. sort of just lived with it since, doctor has had a look and cant find any problem and it comes and goes. I didnt think much of it until I had a dream again and realised the pain is exactly where the crossbow bolt went in. coincidence? freak? I dunno but it seem kinda strange to me. and no I'm not imagining it, it's a realy sharp localsed pain in the skin.

[Rob wastegate]

We will all die thats pants we know, but it is all part of the bigger picture, i am 100% certain that there is life after death!! I have had many experiences which i wont discuss, but there is nothing to be scared of in death, it is just a release from this life top the next, also the time of our death is already in place.

Dont forget that the minute we are born we are dying

Thanks for that Rob. I think I might go and listen to some Radiohead or Dido now! :( :( :cry:

I wish she had. About 3 years ago :mad:
Death?? I laugh in its face - its not gonna hurt is it?? :D

[Rob wastegate]

Zenki , thats ok mate, hope i have cheered you up

[shadowninja]

music? try evanescence...

anyway, i believe there's a 'heaven'. (well, i better fvcking well do considering i'm a catholic.) And my version of heaven has lots of girls, a great race track, all the cars I could want to play with, no speed limits... and the best bit ... you can't die in an accident :D

frightened of death? not at all. why should anyone be? i'm not looking forward to the pain just before the death, but once i die i know i'll finally find peace. can't wait to be honest :rolleyes: until then I will just make the most of life and try not to think too much (thinking just leads to mental torment... "why?" "what if?" etc.).

the ONLY downside to death is that i'm sure my family and friends will be upset by it.

Anyway, back to my Evanescence album... :|

[Phil L]

I'm not so convinced about the born again idea.

The way I see it, is we don't actually remember/experience the previous life, only this one. Therefore if we did live previously, the current life is the last in line since we are remembering this one.

If we do get born again, then we are not the same person anyway, we will have no recollection of this current life otherwise the people alive now would be saying, 'yes I was so and so, and I was conscious of what I did before'.


I am intrigued about the human soul, our spirit if you like. We all know that broken down, the human body is made of cells, the brain too.
Yet a single brain cell doesn't make a soul, but is a collection of brain cells a soul? If we could reconstruct a brain (or indeed a whole body) from the basic cells, would it contain a soul?
What is it that gives a body a life/freedom of choice/will to live?

I'd like to know where did it come from and where will it go? Answers on a postcard to....

That is interesting... but the answer lies in 95% of the brain... the bit we dont understand

PMSL :D

Hmmm? I visit a Clairvoyant so I guess I do believe that there is an after life of sorts...the jury's still out really although I must say he has told me stuff that I simply can't explain. Very bizarre indeed.

Can't say I give much thought to dying at all...far too busy living to be honest.

Death itself doesn't worry me, but what does the chance that it will be nasty and painful. I hope I die by falling unconcious from over exertion when I'm 90 shagging a 20 year old babe:D
