We all die. There's no way around it. Its like a story that you want to write and you have how it begins and you know that its going to end in a final way somehow. Now what do you do put into the middle? You know the old saying,'Do the most with what you have available to you.' Life is temporary, everything is temporary. Life is an oppurtunity to improve yourself. If you dont believe in reincarnation or an afterlife, 'an oppurtunity to improve yourself' might not make any difference. We have theories about what state people are in before and after life, but none of these are absolutely proven. We have a better idea about the nature of life, so that can be something to focus on. I have this theory that 'there is no limit to how bad things can get'. This helps me because I know that the negative has unlimited options and I know that I could spend my whole life floating in uncertainty and vagueness, having no focus, should I direct my attentions to negativity.  Positives are more limited and easier to focus on. Thats just my take on it, it may just be mumbo jumbo to you. There is another way. You know that you can find enjoyment and pleasure in life. Seek them, but try not to cause others to suffer as you do so. Life might just be for fun and your body an amusement park. If life has no point, it is still a matter of character to treat others with dignity and grace. The Golden Rule and all that. \nhttp://subgenius.com\nhttp://slackoff.blogspot.com

I think that we only get one shot at life, that's why we have to try and make the best of it. Fairness doesn't come into the equation I'm afraid, life just isn't fair! Reincarnation sounds great, but is in my view unlikely.  It is possible that 'the point of it all' may be quite obscure or completely beyond our understanding, if one exists at all. I found this excerpt about Nirvana and enlightenment, which I think makes perfect sense... \n\n"Nirvana- The End of Suffering... In this lifetime and all future lifetimes.The Buddha once said, “I teach the path to immortality.” As it turns out, he didn’t mean, not having to die, even Christ had to die. The Buddha was saying... Samsara, the perpetual cycle of birth and death ended in Nirvana, I could never be reborn again... I would exist and not exist at the very same time, forever. I would abide in Nirvana. \n\nEnlightenment- The Wisdom of Emptiness... The wisdom that arises from the direct experience of all phenomena being empty of independent existence.Knowing through personal experience (for example, meditation) that all things are interconnected and interdependent. That nothing in this world exists independently. All things are connected and conditional... In other words... All things exist because of other things."

The number system is a rule. No one can write or invent all the numbers, someone invented the rule, and that is why there are never ending.

A coward worries about death (or other things) all the time. So the person who said the quote is equating worrying all the time to "little deaths". Presumably a soldier goes through life with confidence and only dies upon his (or her) actual cessation of life. The moral of the story is, quit worrying about crap you have no control over!

I suspect you know this is true, but you wish it were otherwise.  That is, you don't disagree -- but you'd like to be able to disagree.\n\nI think the statement is completely true.  Death is nothing to the dead -- since they no longer experience anything.  But also, death is nothing to the living:  Since we can only die once and there's absolutely nothing we can do to prevent it, there's nothing to be gained from wondering or worrying about death.

Even if 10 people die today, another 10 will be born tomorrow. If two things of nature cannot be adulterated, they are death and birth.

no one cheats death you only delay the inevitable. It just wasn't your time yet no matter what you think you have no control over your death when it's your time. Embrace the horror my friend.

Forever means "for the ever." So forever, is the continual span of time upon the formal plane of time. Eternity is quite different.\n\nEternity IS, when time is NOT.\n\nGod's existence is not contingient upon time, RATHER time's existence is contingient upon God. God existed as He is before time, before the first "ever," and God will continue beyond the final moment ... the last of all the "evers." God is beyond (or above) forever. And Eternity is not a measure of time.\n\nETERNITY IS LIFE AS GOD LIVES IT.\n\nSo, those with Eternal Life and those without Eternal Life will live forever. So what? Man, by default, has forever-life. \n\nThe Gospel declares that - Man, by the novel impartaion of the Seed / Spirit of God can have something beyond forever-life ... man can partake of the divine nature and have Eternal Life.\n\nWhy is this important? Well, forever life continues for all time, but time has a deadline. There is coming an end of time. There is a last day, and when that occurs, there will not be another day following it. Those with mere forever-life, have no foundation for existence. Those with Eternal Life will remain.\n\nFor it is written: There is coming a "last" day.\n\nJohn 6:39\nAnd this is the Father's will which hath sent me, that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day. \n\nJohn 6:40\nAnd this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day. \n\nJohn 6:44\nNo man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day. \n\nJohn 6:54\nWhoso eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day. \n\nJohn 11:24\nMartha saith unto him, I know that he shall rise again in the resurrection at the last day.\n\nJohn 12:48\nHe that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day. \n\nMatthew 5:18\nFor verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled. \n\nMatthew 24:35\nHeaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away. \n\n2 Peter 3:10\nBut the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up. \n\n1 John 1\n"we proclaim to you the eternal life, which was with the Father and has appeared to us."

Death is just a part of life.  you have to learn how to deal with it. i'm not afraid of dieing.\n\nI would say life is a series of events, with different emotions and experiances, try to have kids, survive, and die. everyone dies, think of all the living things that have died on this planet sents life began on it. try and hade a good happy life, or a sad evil life. choose your own religion, or not. \n\nMany things can happen to your body after death, rot, mummify, be petrified. I believe that if there is a soul that it is only energy and it is released into the surrounding elements. You make your own hell or heaven here and now. You might be brought back to life through future genetic research, but you would be totally different because of your surroundings.

In the Christian religion, animals don't have souls so they don't go to Heaven or hell.  It means no chance.
