Well you happen to be a handicapped teenager too, _Rave_, so your opinion on who's opinion matters doesn't count.

But when I do, it won't be the end of the world.
Metaphorically.

 But what if you died AT the end of the world? What if you were the last hope of the world and you died?
You should get that checked by a doctor.

Done and done, thanks.

I have just found a paradox.

If my opinion doesn't matter and I believe that your opinion doesn't matter, while simultaneously your opinion doesn't matter and you believe that my opinion doesn't matter, do either of our opinions matter?
Personally, I believe everyone suffers to some extent after you die. :o
You suffer because you lose loved ones and friends.

Not my cup of tea.

A bit, yes. But I happen to believe in a life review within the afterlife. That suffering comes from reviewing certain parts in one's life. The regrets. The grief. Suffering is, afterall, one of our greatest teachers, but only if done with the meaning of Love. Which, of course, Dio has proved time and time again He is quite good at. :P

Sort of like watching a movie about your life?

@reincarnation

so then if people get reincarnated why is the number of living creatures rising?

shouldn't 6.8 billion people and animals included exist for infinity? no beginning and no end?

Have you noticed that Buddhists don't often insult Christianity?
Christians are mean to other religions.
More so than any other.

'Cept maybe Muslims.

On top of all this, have you ever heard of the phrase "Life flashing before your eyes"? if this happens, would you not be in a paradox? Because part of your life is life flashing before your eyes, so it's like two mirrors in front of each other.



This concept may be hard to understand, but I believe that when we die, it's nothing more than what happens when a computer gets unplugged, nothing happens. Our brain is no longer computing us, therefore it's just ended.
I believe that it just doesn't happen anymore. Our brain is no longer functioning, therefore it's just abolutley nothing.
You wouldn't know you were dead. You wouldn't feel it, you wouldn't remember your life because you are just no longer there.
It's as simple as that.
Same as unplugging a computer.
I can realize how it might be difficult to understand, because we've lived so alive tat it seems that we just can't disappear, but just think about that.
