Seriously, yes, I think if there was a way to know then I would like to know, but if there is nothingness, then obviously there would be no way of knowing that, as nothingness would mean just that, so no way of a nothingness to let us know, if you know what I mean
If there is something, a moving on of the spirit to another existance of some sort then even then, could or would we want that to go on forever? And if there is something after we leave this World, then why don't we know for sure? And why has nothing otherwordly let us know for sure, is it taboo on another plain to do so?
It is much too much to contemplate at times. In a way I have to believe, because I 'want' to believe, or humans and animals short existance, the highs and lows, the pleasure, the pain, the working most of our lifes to what end, makes no sense? What's the point of history even 'if' it might be all gone from memory for all when we finally demise?
I realise that having to believe, because I 'want' to believe makes me come across as a bit of a saddo, but sometimes you need something to hold onto to give life a meaning surely?
