If we die, what's awaiting us in our next life? How do we know what's our next life? We must have some sort of next life, but how do we know if we are ourselfs? Sure, once "you" are born again (1st person view in life is the best way to explain it), is it really you? Is it some sort of chemical thing? How do we know if it's some sort of chemical thing?IS what those people say about the next life true? How do we know? How can we test this? If we don't have any access to....whatever, how can we know the answer?
When you die, your just gone. No new life, just nothing.
No, I'm not thinking about. We shouldn't care. All it does is cause conflict, and waste time on research that goes no where. We'll all find out eventually, so instead of fucking around trying to find out what is afterlife, why not try to fix the current life? Honestly....

Yes, but that's the thing,
you are dead, but when you do (or something like you) get a "1st person view of life"?

Yes, but once we find out, we cannot tell people, now can we?

So? That doesn't make a difference. Again, we shouldn't care so much. So what if we know? We wouldn't be able to do anything. All it would do is anger more people (namley those whose religions are inflicted) and cause more war, suffering and stupid shit with those angry about it, and refusing to accept it, regaurdless of what it is.

Good.

Following your logic, this will be your last life, as you still remember this.

When you die, you're dead. There's nothing to it. Once you die you are never coming back.

No. I believe that is reincarnation.

No, that's not what I mean, if you die, will you "see" darkness? Or will you see in 1st person again (a new life)? It may not be you (I'm using the 1st person thing as an example).
No, you just stop existing in any state.
Physical, mental, spiritual, emontional, and any other manner.
Once you're dead nothing happens.
Sure, you don't exist anymore once you die, but what about someone else? As far as I know, someone else may have the same 1st person view as I do when I would die.

Reincarnation is when you are reborn into something or someone else. You don't remember your past lives.

Reincarnation is when you are reborn into something or someone else. You don't remember your past lives.
There is always the possiblity that it can happen. You could be reborn in another universe, and when you recall your supposed past, you're classified as a lunatic.
Either nothing or a whole new life, I don't know exactly.
I did tell my parents that I believe the next life is a dream like state were you would dream about stuff just to make them satisfied, they didn't like me telling them I was atheist because they thought that I thought they would die and disappear forever. I thought they were crazy for thinking atheist as a bad thing just because atheists think that there is nothing after life.
I don't see why you can hate something even if it's possible just because you don't like the outcome

Wait, if you think there's something beyond death, doesn't that make you, not atheist?

Atheism is the denial of the existence of a deity. Doesn't mean an atheist can't believe in an afterlife.

o yah
Thanks for the reminder.
I used to believe in reincarnation, but that changed as I realized I just didn't want to think about simply not existing. I used to think about not existing after death as a child, and cried when alone in bed a lot. Kinda had me scared of death for a long time.
I not exactly sure what I think anymore, I just kind of stopped thinking about it at a certain age, because I was tired of scaring myself, I guess. I think by the time it's time for me to die, life will have tired me out anyway. But yeah, basically, I think we just stop existing.
I do believe I heard somewhere that scientists have discovered after you die a part of you remains as some sort of energy or something.

That does make sense, we're wasting OUR lives finding out what we'll find out soon enough.
Think about that for a while.
What if the sky turned into a giant muffin? You atheists should really think about it, it's a very solid argument against atheism.
Even though I believe in God, if I didn't I'd think we turn into animals when we die as humans.
I think it'd be cool. But, I'm weird anyways.
You go to heaven or hell and thats were your next life begins.
I believe in heaven, but if there is no heaven, I think your body just stops working. Just laying their lifeless.
