when we die is that it game over or is their more what you think

i think that proper spelling and grammar will fetch you better answers.

How can we know? I do know this.. I have a few beers in my bag.

Wanna be a test candidate?

no I enjoy driving my mustang around and burning up gas for no go reason

…............................................
Not. Okay.

I know that would get you I’m just playing

Ohthankgod.

what god would that be

Game over.

You’re owed nothing more.

I think some answers have strayed from the topic ;P

I think that its game over, but i would prefer to believe it isnt. The idea and inevitability of death frightens me a lot.

Ninja no high power or hear after

@kawaii_ninja

We’d all prefer a magical afterlife. That’s why religion has been so successful. It puts an ease to our deepest fears with a glorious reward, or hellish punishment.

No one seems to step back and take a look at the absurd obviousness of the psychology at play. It’s the oldest in the book (no pun).

I know i know =[ I find the subject quite depressing is all….
And Spargett, you have a very good point there! I’ll have to make a note of that next time ;]
I guess the whole ‘wanting to believe’ is in a desperate attempt to make more of this life. Ah wells. =]

Oh and before i didnt intend to mean God etc….i was hinting more towards maybe (hard to explain but….)...i don’t know…..spirits? It is extremely stupid i know. My brain genrally works in that way =]

I don’t think you have to be religious to believe there’s something else out there… I’m not saying I do or I don’t but I like the idea of it – like the concept of regression where you are supposedly taken back to past lives, the point being that though we physically don’t exist when we die our soul does through another physical being. Like when you get the feeling of déjà vu… Who knows, could all be a pile of old poo.

Game Over. Then the really long ending video. Credits. Creator logo.

@Spargett: Why do we fear no afterlife? If it’s over then so is our fear! I think the possibility of an afterlife is far more fearful.

it depends on if you are saved by god or not

I had to type all this on my iPod

Game over man! Game Over!

There is no afterlife. It’s just dust. However, the very same dust becomes a plant or another animal so it depends how you look at it.
People who believe in heaven need to realise that they are already there so make the most of it!

If you have surrendered your life to Christ, believe by faith He died and came back to life and repented from your sins which means to turn from them then you indeed have an after life which is called eternal life. The description of what you have to look forward is found in Rev 21.
Now if you hadn’t done the above by the time you die then you are going to have an after life of eternal hell.
The Bible makes many references to Hell throughout its pages:
Hell is a place of physical agony, mental suffering, loneliness and emotional sorrow. Yeshua described it as a place where there is weeping and gnashing of teeth.(Jude 6; Matt 8:12; Matt 13:42, 50; Matt 25:30;).
Hell is a place of insecurity and fear. The Bible describes it as a bottomless pit, an abyss. (Revelation 20:1).
Hell is a place of instability. It is described as a lake of fire. Hell is a place where every moment is lived in uncertainty (Matthew 5:21–23; Revelation 20:15).
Hell is a pit of darkness; totally devoid of light. It is pitch black in hell; there’s nothing to distract people from their suffering, sorrow, fears, insecurities, and instability. (2 Peter 3–5).
Hell is a place of dissatisfaction. Yeshua described it as a fire; a fiery furnace. It may be a literal fire that creates a physical sensation of burning or just an overwhelming yearning for God, for love, for joy, for peace, for life that will never be. (Matthew 5:22; Matt 13:42 and 50; Matt 18:8–9; Matt 25:41; Mark 9:43, 47–48) .
Hell is a place of eternal separation from God. Each person who goes to hell will be separated forever from the source of life, the heart of love, the very One for Whom they were created. Hell is a place where your soul will be destroyed (Matthew 7:23 and 10:27–29). According to Scripture, Hell is eternal.

@Shorty – sure, that’s all true, according to the bible. But if the bible isn’t true, what other evidence of heaven is there? Who is to say that the bible is true in the first place (apart from the bible itself)?

I’m not saying there is definitely no afterlife, but I think if there is, the answer won’t necessarily lie in religion.

@jonno are you willing to take the chance your wrong

There’s always a chance that you’re wrong. How do you know you’ve picked the right religion?

it takes a lot of faith but if I’m wrong and there is no afterlife I have lose nothing was just a better person because of what I believed but if I’m not wrong then nonbeleivers have hell to pay

I could never believe in a religion that punishes people for being good people but just not happening to believe in the right idea of a god.

your not being punished your giving a choose think of this the creator of everyhing heaven and earth God he does not need you he wants you

@oneye36, this is the same flaw in the Pascal’s Wager argument. There are so many religions out there (there are even different types within Christianity) – how do you know yours is right? Especially as a lot of religions (including, I’m guessing, yours) punish if you don’t believe in it.

Most people follow the religion they were born into anyway, or in none at all. Do you, oneye36, think that if you were born into a Muslim family in a Muslim country you would still become a Christian (or whatever your religion is)? No, you wouldn’t – so do you think if you were in that case, that you would deserve to go to hell?

we are all sinner and the price of sin is death but god so loved the world he gave his own son to die in our place

Wow, this is getting scary. I think I can smell the fire and brimstone from here.

Yup. Maybe there is just ‘nothingness’ waiting for us.

I have some questions about the bible…

1) Why did only men write it? (not including Mary’s gospel or whatever)

2) Is there any physical evidence to support it?

3) If you compare what the act of a miracle today with what the act of a miracle was all those years ago, our opinions are quite different, so someone performing a miracle then could be – for example – making a dry spring flow with water again

(if you think, it may not be all that hard to do this, there could just be some mud or a stone blocking the hole where the water comes out >.>)

The book of Ruth (Old Testament)

Mary’s Gospel is apart of the Catholic Apocrypha

Ninja, I am not sure what you mean by “physical evidence.” There is plenty of archaeological and geographical evidence proving sections of the Bible.

@kawali ninja – 1. they were inspired by God, much in the way a prophet was inspired to speak
2. Yes. Plenty of resources to find it.
3. Is it not a miracle to poke a stick in the right place and water comes forth?
So 4. So yeah it is all that hard.

Also, it wouldn’t hurt to have a back-up plan in case something happens in the nothingness.

Ok ok ok!! x]

I get it now, i have been proven wrong, and i conceed to the almighty power of your intelligence and logical abilities ;P

I wouldn’t know a lot on religious subjects, because even though i’m a Christian, i don’t do the whole church and bible thing and i don’t know much about it, even though i did read the bible a lot when i was younger (mostly for the coloured pictures). Sorry! =]

Aal-umran: 3:158:
Every soul will taste of death, and ye will be paid on the Day of Resurrection only that which ye have fairly earned. Whoso is removed from the fire and is made to enter paradise, he indeed is triumphant. The life of this world is but comfort of illution.
