[Niamh.]

Interesting............

[Shaun]

it's a nice idea, I suppose.

[Smithy]

As in like, the light of the medical room?

[Niall]

As in like, the light of the medical room?

Yeah :o

[MTVN]

But what about all the people that aren't born in a hospital

[CharlieO]

But what about all the people that aren't born in a hospital

Would still be a bright light as a baby would have been used to darkness so any light at all would be seen as bright.
But baby's aren't born with their eyes open?

[MTVN]

Not if the lights aren't on :nono:

[Smithy]

why would anyone give birth in the dark!! :nono:

[MTVN]

For all you know they cant afford the electricity bill, dont be so unthoughful :nono:

[Josy]

Freaky!

[Smithy]

For all you know they cant afford the electricity bill, dont be so unthoughful :nono:

Well there would surely be light from the windows :nono:

[Vicky.]

What about people who see the bright light, then come back to life and live for years and years though.

Thats one slow ass labour D:

[Z]

I once read an interview with Paul O'Grady, he died very briefly but his heart was restarted or something, and he said there was no bright light. [/thread]

[Doogle]

This is how I imagine it being.

[Jords]

Its a cool idea, but a bit :S

[MTVN]

Well there would surely be light from the windows :nono:

Not if it was pitch black outside or if the curtains were drawn :nono: (and don't ask why the curtains would be drawn)

[Tom4784]

Human eyes only absorb a certain amount of light, everything is a lot brighter then we see it.

Still birth?

[Ramsay]

i am trippin ballz

[Zippy]

utter crap

you die then there's a big fat nothing. Human arrogance to think we go on and on forever.

yeah, you're probably right but it's still an interesting idea anyway:joker:

[Jords]

:eureka:

Because its night time

Still birth?

That is a good theory :O

[Zippy]

yeah, you're probably right but it's still an interesting idea anyway:joker:

well I realise that people need to make death seem less frightening

but personally I don't find the idea of nothing scary at all. If there's nothing then there's nothing to fear. Literally.

[Niamh.]

I think it because you can't imagine nothingness cos then it becomes something:joker:

[Shaun]

I agree. I think as long as you're satisfied with the life you've lived there's nothing to fear with eternal nothingness.

[Niall]

To be honest, I think the idea of nothing is far more terrifying than the idea of hell. The idea that there's nothing but black after you die and nothing to live for scares me to the very core, so I just refuse to believe there's nothing after we pass on.

Black is something though so there will be no black:nono:

:laugh:

You know what I mean. :nono:

[MTVN]

:eureka:

Because its night time


Good point :amazed:

[MTVN]

And I actually find the thought of nothingness comforting, both heaven & hell disuturb me more than that does

[Niamh.]

:laugh:

You know what I mean. :nono:

you won't know any different though. My brother reckons that being dead would be like falling asleep in the sun because you never dream or feel like you've even been asleep.

[Niall]

Well at least in heaven/hell/purgatory you have other people there with you. With nothingness your on your own, and there is quite simply nothing. Idk it terrifies me. :'( *Shudders*

[Niamh.]

you're not going to be on your own though, you won't be, full stop

[Niall]

Its such a horrid thought to me though. sahfkjasd :bawling: I just can't even accept that I will die one day. If possible I would do everything to be immortal.

[Zippy]

Niall, you're making the mistake of thinking you'll actually be conscious when you die

Point is, you will have no thoughts at all because you will no longer have a brain to process thought or feelings.

[Smithy]

Not if it was pitch black outside or if the curtains were drawn :nono: (and don't ask why the curtains would be drawn)

why on earth would the curtains be drawn :nono:

[Z]

I'm like you Niall, the thought of death scares me, but on the other hand I'm not sure I'd want to be immortal, what if you really wanted to die but you physically couldn't? That'd be awful, much worse than death I think. Perhaps immortality with an opt out clause and you get to choose your age when you become immortal? :laugh:

Thank God I'm not the only one! :laugh:

Yeah I guess I think the same. I'd like to be able to live forever but at the same time have one way to die. Like (and I know y'all gon hate this example cause its from Twilight) in Twilight, a Vampire can only die if ripped apart and then burnt. Not the most pleasant of deaths but I would like just one way of dying but it's have to be hard to do.

[Lewis.]

I like this idea but I've always challenged it with the idea that the population has grown over time; if everyone was someone in a past life and the same souls have been here since the start but have just passed on through different life's, how can the population increase... it would mean that the world would have had to have started with the same amount of people there are today - unless your soul passes through more than just the human form, passing through the form of any living molecule, animal or even plant. There are trillions and trillions of living things in the universe. It's something I often wonder about, as is the concept of space being never ending because you just can't quite get your head around it. Strange.

Somebody posted something on here a while ago, I think it was Karl, it was a story about a guy who died and met God and he told him that he was every other person that has ever been or ever will be and he's constantly living all these lives one by one... I enjoyed that, it was an interesting idea.

I've always thought about that too. What if my higher being is powering all of these life's and I am going through every experience everyone has and ever will have but I just wont know about it. I look at people and think - what if I'm actually them. Almost a totally new dimension. It's very strange.

[Jords]

And you dont find that scary or sad?


Knowing you wont know about your family, friends, memories? Or ****, gone..

[Lewis.]

... it makes life seem completely irrelevant in the grand scheme of things. You've just gotta enjoy it as best you can.

[Fetch The Bolt Cutters]

i dont like the nothingness either :sad:

[Lewis.]

i dont like the nothingness either :sad:

I don't mind the nothingness if I'm not going to know about it - but the idea that you will know all about it and just be able to experience nothingness forever, scares me. Forever isn't really a time, it's just everything and when you can't get your mind around it, that's when it's scary. I hope that there is some sort of afterlife.

Pretty depressing if you think about it too much :[

[joeysteele]

I am keeping a very open mind on what happens after death, I used to discount anything happening after death but so many people have told me things that make me think.
No one has the blueprint as to what happens and I can accept that some energy we have may go somewhere else,no one knows for sure though or for what reason.

I have heard this tunnel thing a lot from people and even a relative who we were told had died in hospital but who then actually did come back,he always said he was sent back,it wasn't his time.

It's easy to dismiss all people say as to something of ourselves going on after death but no one can know for sure until we die,I am not afraid of death, it will come (hopefully at least 60+ years in the future though),if there is nothing then I will not know a thing about it but if there is something then that would be a whole new adventure.

As I say,no one has the blueprint for what happens and the truth is no one has any proven answer either to what may or may not happen.

Well because (and this isn't my opinion I just heard someone who believes in reincarnation say this!) Some new lives are new souls and it will be their first time on earth, some are older and will have been reincarnated before
