Damn its hard to think of just NOT existing... Like what would it be likeJust walking around in a pitch black room with endless walls
I think it would be nearly impossible to grasp the concept of not existing considering we individually have not (at least consciously) experienced that feeling of nothingness.
I'm just going to live my life to the fullest, and make something out of it. Knowing there was an eternity of... everything, would discourage me from trying my best in this life.
I still believe there is at least some form of afterlife after death, but that won't stop me from impacting this world to my best effort due to my belief's teachings and just in case I am actually wrong and there is nothing after death.
Better to think there is none, and be happy and amazed that there is, then hoping there is one and being utterly disappointed when there is none.
But how can I be dissapointed if I cease to exist forever? Just a theoretical question.
You shouldn't need external incentive to promote good doings/common morals.
I've heard that your brain stays active for a good time after your heart stops working and blood stops flowing. 15 minutes, or something?
Some people would call me an atheist, but I call it nonchalant indifference.
