After we die, consciousness must go somewhere, right?
After we die, consciousness must go somewhere, right?
This. At death, the body is simply the vessel the consciousness was housed in. It's very possible our real selves are hundreds or thousands of light years away from Earth or in another dimension.
There is literally no evidence life ends after death. None.
Yes, to that little place called "oblivion."
We’ll find out. Lol
Perhaps. But there's no evidence that it doesn't either.
But maybe the body itself is what was responsible for creating and maintaining the consciousness. When the body dies maybe the consciousness dies too
On the contrary, there's literally no evidence our minds go on after death. Everything points towards death being the end, nothing towards life going on after death.
We do not have enough information.
Saying we do and that we just "die" is lazy science.
This, also, how do people just keep dying and being reborn? It's a cycle. Where do the souls come from when a new baby is born?
What about newborns?
Do you remember anything from the time before you were born?
That's where you will go.
there's absolutely no way for us to know and any time spent dwelling upon is is time taken away from the present moment. We come from nothing and as far as we know we fade into nothing.
Consciousness isn't a separate existent thing. It's an emergent property of your meat brain.
Where does your consciousness go when you sleep without dreams?
Nothing could be everything though. Look at the universe. It is both.
anons, are you ready to lay down your Vehicles?
It's maintenance like defragging your hard drives.
I remember that bit being funnier when Bill Burr told it.
Not necessarily, but I hope so
Most certainly and science proves it
I'm always amazed at people who somehow think humans are 'special' and will continue on after death. We're as common as dirt.
This is probably the best answer - whether the reality is "nothing" or something else (consciousness exists on some other plane, whatever), it is probably the same as/similar to whatever your state was before birth.
Over the years your body decomposes and the atoms go all over the place And a new consciousness may be created out of your shit but it ain’t you. It’s like scrapping a broken car for parts and building a motorcycle and a helicopter out of those parts. Still those have nothing to do with the original car
no we aren't frogposter
we are unique beings
no other being on this planet has our gifts
you frogposters are self hating
and want to watch the world burn
we don't
I think we can all agree it's pretty complicated and we're all gonna find out in person before we can figure it out on this taiwanese knitting board
We're stuck on the cash sphere penitentiary. this is all that matters.
actually it doesn't. there's no "soul". body warmth may go somewhere, "the energy of the body". and that's that.
death is a painful topic, but to not face it and say "i'm going to end" is cowardice.
you could re-use elements of the same brain to power the new vehicle though
Conciousnesss isn't real never was you've been listening to the mass utilize undefinable nebulous conjecture. When you die your organs of perception shut down and your body returns to raw ingredients for the soil and that's it.
wee
Video games reinforce the concept that there could be other levels above this one.
see my posts in
lucid consciousness definitely continues on. it isn't "stored" in our brains; the brain is merely the receiver of it.
mounting evidence supports this and that long term memory is also not stored locally but rather accessed from somewhere else. I forget where the article is that I was reading that had a lot of supportive literature regarding this, I'll to find it but some good google terms are
memory not stored locally
consciousness not in the brain
After-life is what the ruling class tell the poor classes to prevent them from realizing that they are getting the shit-end of the stick in life.
That is depressing
nope. brain dies, it dies.
switch turns off, and there's no turning it back on.
Actually yes it does, "energy is neither created of destroyed". Your life energy, bound by the laws of science has to go somewhere and cannot just disappear, it's likely that either reincarnation may be a thing or you're going somewhere else but nobody knows since no conscious unbound by a physical body can tell you about it.
Thank you God!
Amen
that's how null hypotheses work jack. Nothing lazy about it
Why? Consciousness is a meme. Lower animals act purely on instinct. Yell at a cat, it'll cower or run away or fight, depending on its "personality," or characteristics, but whatever it does, it'll be a 100% honest, natural reaction. Humans can suppress their reactions. We can think, but not act. This is a great development, lets us plan, lets us develop complex relationships, doing shit like pretending to pay attention and listen to your wife. It lets us imagine. It lets us hold onto memories and enjoy them. It lets us see life as a narrative, infused with purpose and meaning. All this, because we can think instead of just doing.
Your consciousness dies every day when you go to sleep. It's like hopping in the transporter, having your atoms scattered and reconstructed thousands of miles away. You die every night, and a new you wakes up the next morning. If you think your consciousness isn't just a moderately helpfully byproduct of your brain, then get a little brain damage and see how it changes and suffers.
Hahahahaha! We're using our superior gifts to totally destroy the planet. What unique beings we truly are, eh?
Nope. Your conscience just ceases to exist, and you don't need to die to get there.
I do not believe in an after life, but I do think that something cannot merely end.
Yeah that’d be awesome if you were on a team of science and you made a Frankenstein thing like that. But it wouldn’t occur naturally. By the time the matter of your brain is part of another form of life, it would’ve already been broken down completely and it would be unlikely for it to be rearranged the same way. It wouldn’t be “you”
Occams razor
>must go somewhere
Why on earth would it have to go somewhere? If you switch off a light, does the light "go somewhere"?
>consciousness must go somewhere
How do you demonstrate this? When you went to sleep, did your consciousness go somewhere or did it simply stop?
Your carbon will return to the planet to be re-used. Thats about as close to "not ending" we will get
What was the switch though?
"life energy" isn't a thing
It's always there. There is no place to go.
Body and Mind are Anode and Cathode, Consciousness is the current.
Charge is everywhere. In your body, in the atmosphere.
When you enter your room and it's dark you switch on the light, the light does not go away or come back. It's either on or off.
It's the same in everything.
Lack of information !=something doesn't exist.
All the available information says there is more than what we know here.
I don’t think a light has anything to do with the human consciousness.
Yes it is. It exists in all living things. It can be measured.
>we are unique beings
While true in the very elementary sense that there are no other sentient, self aware creatures without mental capabilities on the planet; this is no way implies divine creation or any kind of afterlife.
Who the fuck is being "reborn"?
Niggas dies, others fuck and have kids. And with the human population always growing, where are these extra souls coming from? Souls performing mitosis or some shit when people die?
>without
with our
it goes back to source where it's analyzed for anything of value learned in your experience
Reread
This is the best answer.
Yes, light continues outward from the source forever until it hits something. We still see the light from exploded stars even tho they've gone out long ago
Cats and dogs are learning from us how to access their own consciousness user. They have been influenced by us for thousands of years.
>how do people just keep dying and being reborn
fucking excuse me?
I did. You're making the assumption that since we haven't found evidence of consciousness that it doesn't exist. Occam's Razor "explains" why god doesn't "exist," too.
It is a selfish human concept.
it transfers into a loli's body
Then what is a soul/ your consciousness? user get into deep meditation or experience ego death and you will learn that there's things in this existence that are far beyond human understanding..this realm this dimension there is much more to this and you and I. Get really good at meditation/get closer to opening your third eye and you'll learn that you can detect lifeforms and other unworldly things, although animals are much better with this than humans, same reason why babies and dogs can see "ghosts"
and then my penis slowly gets diamonds
This there is more to what that meets the eye
Retake your science classes.
No
Occam's Razor is much like an Archbishop saying Christ is the only answer.
It is lazy stupid self-fullfilling prophecy that drowns creative thinking.
this is true
Consciousness is nothing but electrical signals flowing through the brain.
The soul lives in the brain.
First, define consciousness.
My science classes tell me the Big Bang is a real thing. An event that contradicts human scientific theory.
there is no proof that it does
>there is no proof that it doesnt.
thus we have faith......because if there was proof. it would be calledlogical conclusions.
Nope, earth is a jail and you will be here forever
History has been rewritten a million times
We could go to other planets if dumbfucks in our world governments weren't so hell-bent on blowing each other up in wars and hogging all the resources for the super-rich.
>history has been rewritten
Not the real history. Not scientific history.
It's just been corrected.
And the idea of a finite universe was corrected decades ago.
When you turn off a light, the light has to go somewhere right?
Sorry my dude but what you call consciousness is just a bunch of electric stimulation in your brain
Now I doubt you ever took them. Go to your science classes
There is literally no evidence of this.
/thread
>what is electromagnetism
Ego Death all fine and good but some people just don't get it.
As if getting rid of Ego was first of all possible and second of all beneficial in any shape or form.
Every human being acquires personality, some form of coating that is useful to the growth of essence, growth of understanding.
It is like the eggwhite and the yolk. Any seed surrounds itself with material it feeds off. And that ought to be personality in man.
But in many people personality just takes charge. And some realize this, thus talk about ego death - believing - that the ego must be killed or some shenanigans. Which is really stupid. Usually notions of acid burnouts in the making.
When you zero out a hard drive, where does the information go? In theory, when you die, you simply cease to exist.
But there's no fucking way, as far as I know, for us to be sure about whether or not something comes after.
Science doesn't agree with you, fatalist.
Souls don't exist.
We are created by environmental circumstances,(rich/poor), our physiology(genes, etc), and if you are a natural born fighter or quitter(suicidal people).
nope
There is litteraly a ton, try the website called google.com
Who says death is akin to "zeroing out a hard drive?"
How do you know what is real history and what is false? You don't even know how many fingers or toes an average human being has
deep
No it can't
>look it up
so nothing but your word
There is literally no evidence that conscienceless is the end result of chemicals and electric stimulation. Stop being a faggot and assuming everyone is dumb enough to believe your shit boomer
you sound like a trumper
Yes it can
through heartbeat
pulse
breathing
dead bodies don't have these things
I am guessing the average is somewhere between 8 and 12.
I'm afraid of dying, I wanna live forever, I don't want to just cease to exist and forget about everrything I lived.
I'm not interested in politics
Well, when we fuck with people's brains, their consciousness gets correspondingly fucked with, so that suggests a relationship.
Great thread, stay awake Yea Forums.
True but the consciousness is shaped by the vessel and without it, it falls apart.
Then you're a realistic person!
Don't forget the decimals
It's like saying gasoline is the car
you are lazy faggot
lazy
You're entire "ego" doesnt die but you certainly become more awoken in a sense if done correctly, every man to an extent has pride of some shape or form, when I personally say "ego death " I refer to the realization that a person gains once they realize that there are things bigger than themselves and that all this bullshit, that themselves arent the biggest fish
Boi
There is no evidence consciousness "falls apart" upon the death of the vessel.
I get that. It can be scary. It's so foreign and final. We can't imagine not existing, and struggling to conceive of that really alarms us, trying to think of not thinking, times 10. But when the time comes, you'll be okay. You aren't suffering, or bothered that you're not awake when you're asleep, and you won't find anything troubling about being dead.
Yea but you see how you compare the ego with self?
Saying that there is something bigger than yourself as if that ego was you?
Which it isn't, that's the whole point. And by realizing that you are already that which you are looking for, namely those "thigns that are bigger than you".
Ego at once becomes a possibility instead of a hindrance.
No it isn't.
Well that's the game buddy, be a player for as long as you can. I'm not saying immortality doesn't exist but I'm unsure of it. Are vampires real beats me..
Actually lets follow the logic of this analogy.
When you turn off a light, you are disconnecting a source of charge to a filament, the light does go somewhere after you turn it off, it's forever affected the structure of location it was briefly shined in and if your outside the waves will continue outwards for infinity. when we turn off the light, the light isn't gone, the energy isn't gone, it has simply transformed into a new form of energy.
We must then ask ourselves, did the light exist before we flipped the switch, except in a different form?
>We must then ask ourselves, did the light exist before we flipped the switch, except in a different form?
Eh yes.
>plot twist
How can light be real if our eyes aren't real?
You're right man, you're clearly awake as well, forgive me as I cannot sometimes find the correct words for what I am trying to describe but I agree with you.
Some high I.Q. shit right here
That isn't life energy and you can stimulate all of these by passing electrical current through these organs.
"life energy" doesn't exist.
What's that say?
Unless life energy is simply any energy that is used specifically by living beings.
Energy is neither created nor destroyed. Your insights aren’t deep, they’re basically science.
You faggots can't be serious.
When you die, you're dead...just like everything else that dies.
Get over yourselves...you're not gods trapped in a meat suit...you're just the meat suit.
No we can't, stop being dense. We can measure whether an object is alive or not.
Don't reply with this stupid shit again k?
Insemination? Lol.
>implying the notion of space is relevant to consciousness
> Enlightenment came to me suddenly and unexpectedly one afternoon in March [1939] when I was walking up to the school notice board to see whether my name was on the list for tomorrow’s football game. I was not on the list. And in a blinding flash of inner light I saw the answer to both my problems, the problem of war and the problem of injustice. The answer was amazingly simple. I called it Cosmic Unity. Cosmic Unity said: There is only one of us. We are all the same person. I am you and I am Winston Churchill and Hitler and Gandhi and everybody. There is no problem of injustice because your sufferings are also mine. There will be no problem of war as soon as you understand that in killing me you are only killing yourself.
– Freeman Dyson, ‘Disturbing the Universe’, 1979
You literally have no evidence that the meat suit is the be-all end-all of life user.
You're just a cynic.
Sometimes a person dies and gots ressurected by medics. Did the person really died and the conscience returned to her? Sometimes a person have brain death and will be vegetative, does that mean that person is alive or did the life conscience already abandoned the body for good?
Bitch, you can simulate lungs breathing by plugging then onto an airpump. Does the pump work as a magical Chi-generator?
Conciousness is just your brain formulating a plan to help you survive based on the input od your very physical senses.
You're the one trying to prove something, friend. That anons point doesn't need evidence, since it's about something we haven't found any proof if.
No. Your consciousness is in your brain and when the brain is dead there no more consciousness. Actually when you die a lot of DMT splash in your brain and you start to see some shit like heaven or hell like a dream for a long time like a years in your mind, maybe even hundreds of years. Because in your dreams time flows different, once I slept about 30 minutes but in my dream I spent like 3 full weeks.
But you can easily avoid that just by blowing your head off with a shotgun and no DMT and heaven for you.
My theory is that, we come from Stars right? I think when we die, our bodies dissolve and sort of recycles itself and after a ridiculously large time period, the cells that made us are recycled into another living creature with conscious.
Think about it, what are the odds that you, at this time happen to have been born with conscious? It was either planned, or if the Universe is infinite, then given enough time, it was bound to happen and will happen again, and again...
Retard
It's the best guess, KISS, nothing lazy about it
Dyson, Einstein, and Schrödinger all shared the intuition of Open Individualism. If you add Feynman and Wheeler's One Electron theory of the universe, that's 5 top physicists of the 20th century orbiting around this explanation space.
No evidence? Damn dude, you're even more retarded than I thought possible.
I'm not a cynic, you're just a beta cuck faggot who can't deal with the fact of his own mortality.
You literally have no evidence that for consciousness to exists that it must depend on a finite human machine, only that a machine powers and interacts with it.
Good shit but a little of topic
you sound like you diddle kids
All we're doing is questioning existence.
You're the one laying down standards that you can't prove.
Consciousness is just an amalgamation of neurons working together. When those neurons cease to fire, consciousness ceases to exist.
You're both terrified of death (for no good reason) and it's palpable. You're no different from religious idiots.
Does that mean we all eat cum and molest ourselves as children?
No. When you die your consciousness just desolves into nothingness.
Not even blackness, because blackness is a thing.
Nothingness.
How does something become complete nothingness ?
Not him, but that's exactly what all the evidence suggests :p
"we" are just chemistry in a brain
chemistry stops, we stop
Science is not guesswork. Don't be a faggot.
No it doesn't asshole. You are assuming the components which interact with conscienceness make up the whole. Both of you need to shut the fuck up.
you dumbass you keep changing what "life energy" is you said that it is measurable and that is a unique type of "energy" different than electricity or whatever
please give us a clear definition of what life energy is and how it is measured I'm dying to know
science is literally guess and check try again faggot
wasn't the poster you were addressing
but you're one of those "we die and that's it" idiots, aren't you? :~)
this is such a misuse of occam's razor i want to throw up
that means shut up faggot
come on it's fun watching 8th graders be contrarians
no, I believe consciousness is a singular composite sensation created by a vast collection of sensory perceptions and processes that is interpreted as one experience. when you "die" your composite consciousness dissociates; the collective is no longer "one." YOU no longer exist, but everything that made YOU is still there. so i guess instead of saying "when we die we are nothing" I would rather say "when we die we are no one thing."
TL;DR panpsychism look it up
We're all conscious from a vine that extends it's branches to every living conscious thing.
We are all part of the same conciousness but our brains make us beleive we are different from one another.
not cool calling people fag in 2020 smh
nothing gets me going quite like watching children butcher the principles of logic
>panpsychism
It would be so cool to be able to tap into a collective consciousness after death
Unfalsifiable drivel
The chemical reactions stop. Energy is dissipated as heat. Bugs eat you and absorb potential energy. Your atoms are redispersed
Eat a bunch of shrooms man and you'll get there
Shows don't stop existing when we turn off Netflix.
the same place your PC operating sistem goes when you format your harddrive.
shrooms suck, extract dmt
Electricity surges through a tungsten filament resistor which heats up and throws off energy as light. It just happens so fast you think it appears out of nothing but it's not magic. There is a process. When you kill the switch the current stops and the temp drops. There is no more energy to come off as light and it goes dark. You can see the light bleed off. Ever be there when someone dies? You can see the same thing. It's horrifyingly final when someone's lights go out and wouldn't it be comforting if the all loving god nuzzled them in the afterlife? We won't ever know because its a one time deal when you die. Near death isn't death and I wouldn't trust the stories told as they are generally based on experiences that are had by a brain failing either due to lack of blood or oxygen which we know causes all sorts of auditory and visual hallucinations.
what if death is just permanent paralysis, like when you die your still conscious but with no signs of life.
Happy nightmares.
Consciousness is a living thing and all living things die
Actually, there have been people who have suffered brain damage, have lived years as a "vegetable", after which they have awoken with the exact same consciousness as before the brain damage - exact same memories, exact same personality, with the only difference being the age of the physical body (obviously).
>I read the National Enquirer

Can someone just fucking explain ego death to me anons keep using it and i don't get it
It is the complete disassembly of your concept of "you"
Actually had to check what that is, for I am not a burger-head. Mind telling me how the cases of people declared brain-dead, that have later recovered, are not real? The only reason I can think of is of the possibility (emphasis on the word possibility) that they were pronounced brain-dead prematurely or outright falsely.
It is seeing the 'self' in everything. It is useful when an ego is detached from what might bring it 'harm'.
Don't fear
That's what happens to NPCs. I'm assuming this thread is about what happens to actual humans when they die.
What if we just had to relive our miserable lives over and over for the rest of eternity?
Currently unknown, although it was discovered fairly recently that in extremely small chambers in our neurons, quantum waves are generated every electric pulse, so that could be a clue.
If you're trying to say that there's something after life with the argument that consciousness can't be in a state of non existence, then it must also come from somewhere.
So, it goes back to where it was before you were born. For all intents and purposes, you might say it's a moot point since it becomes nothingness.
I'd hope so, the guys profession is being funny
Remember that time before you were born? What that was like?
That'll be what it'll be like. Eternal unawareness.
As far as I'm aware they declare brain-dead before the brain actually dies. If the brain dies, all organs would stop and die rapidly and be unusable.
So before your brain physically dies, they'll declare you brain dead and harvest your organs for donation. The brain will be alive throughout, then once organs have been taken, your life support machine will be turned off.
Sorry to go full boomer on you but make your life a good one faggot
Brain death is irreversible by definition. If the person recovers, they were misdiagnosed. You can recover from a coma and be totally fine, but brain death is death.
Brain death is the complete cessation of brain activity, all brain activity. Cardiac muscle doesn't need the brain for anything, so your heart can keep beating, and you can be hooked up to a ventilator to keep air going in and out, but brain death means exactly what it sounds like: your brain is totally and completely silent. If it's still capable of some lower level functions, then you're in a vegetative state. They can breathe, open their eyes, and so on. Wakefulness, but not awareness. A coma is a state where you have neither wakefulness nor awareness, but you can recover from a coma. Vegetative state is when your brain is fucked, severely damaged, but still alive. Brain death is when there's jack shit going on. The fire is out; the wood is cold.
Oh man spiritualists are a special kind of retarded. Souls, life energy, rebirth, its all wishful thinking. When you die your body and all its associated functions dissipate into the universe and your atoms are recycled; all associated functions of the body cease... everything goes black...you don't think or sense or continue in any way. its over. done.
The subconsciousness kicks in.
Prove that the soul exists if you want a serious answer
The laws of thermodynamics don't apply to forms of energy you've just made up

Cracked it....Yay!
evidence number one: no one has died and lived to tell the tale
what if the tunnel with light at the end you're supposedly go through when you die, is actually you being reborn through your new mother's vagina and the crying all babies do is because they're just lost all their memories of their previous life?
You can't bring the baggage of your previous life, the point is that you have a new challenge based on the Quality, or lack of it gained from your previous incarnation.
There are some slight exceptions, but these are usually just to nudge humanity in the right direction etc ( reality is much bigger than we think)
Stfu.
I think we are in the matrix..

neah, it's the surge of dmt that your brain creates as you die, nothing more.

Why do crazies look crazy?
Threads almost dead because it's helpful to be intelligent to post an interesting philosophical inquiry.
Oh well a least I posted.
I disagree. The practice of thinking about death is present throughout history all over the globe, and for a good reason. The meditation over one owns mortality and fragility is what gives this short lifer a sense of urgency and meaning
Fuck Donald Trump
It'd be pretty cool if, like, losing your memory was a process that took a couple of years, so, like, the reward after your life was getting to snuggle with a qt girl and suck on her swollen, plumpy titties.

if you shuffle a deck enough times eventually every possible permutation will repeat itself.
Underrated post.
You are the sum total of the slowly dying matter wedged into your skull. You die, thats it.
Its liberating to know I dont have to exist forever
The number of permutations in a deck of playing cards is 52 factorial. Say that there exists 10 Billion people on every planet, 1 Billion planets in every solar system, 200 Billion solar systems in every galaxy, and 500 Billion galaxies in the universe. If every single person on every planet has been shuffling decks of cards completely at random at 1 Million shuffles per second since the BEGINNING OF TIME, every possible deck combination would still yet to have been "shuffled".

No, as there's nothing that implies imperative.
Sooner it later, we'll all find out. I hope you'll be prepared for the spectacular journey, anons. Death is what it means to be alive.
any other conclusion is pure cope
Then you're an idiot.
You won't find out. You will be dead. Game over permanently.
It goes into the system. After all, consciousness is not but electricity. Electricity rules the world.
The First Law of Thermodynamics asserts that matter or its energy equivalent can neither be created nor destroyed under natural circumstances.1 One of the logical outcomes of this law is that there is no new matter or energy appearing anywhere in the universe, nor is there any matter being annihilated. All matter and energy in the universe is conserved. Consequently, this law is often referred to as the Law of Conservation of Mass and Energy. Although matter can neither be created nor destroyed, it can be converted from one state to another, i.e. from a liquid to a gas, liquid to solid, solid to gas. The overwhelming experience of experimental physics confirms this First Law to be a fact. As we shall see, this law has enormous implications regarding the origin of matter in our universe.
What a novel concept. All of known history and the drama playing out in modernity may in fact be true and God created us, loves us and died for us in Jesus Christ because of this very fact.
your soul is an idiot
Except for the existence of matter and energy..which cannot be created
fucking weaboo sword art online faggot
No one knows. But they believe many things. I know energy can't be created or destroyed.
Explain why the inability to create new matter and energy means our minds go on after death.
Every movement of your body, every thought you have ever imagined was a conversion of chemical energy and still exists in the universe. Still propagating as a wave, easily converted and brought back to your judgement before your creator God. FACT!
>random mention of propagating waves
>judgement
>before your creator God
Discarded. Even before the idea that specific forms of energy (chemical) are necessary to sustain your body, but somehow your being isn't dependent on its own form.
you seriously think your dumb consciousness goes anywhere? does your dogs consciousness go somewhere to? what about a birds consciousness? does it go somewhere too? where are all these consciousnesses hanging out? consciousness land? retarded ass motherfucker
cringe
You absolutely understand the reality God played out when he revealed himself to us perfectly.
Isaiah 55:8-9; James 1:2-5 and Philippians 4:4-7 emphasize several truths we need to know and be reminded of:
God's Ways are Not Our Ways
Isaiah 55:89
1. He is infinite--we are finite.
2. He knows the end from the beginning while we see just a short part of the now.
3. He knows the whys, while we grasp for wisdom.
4. Examples through scripture and experience clearly illustrate that His ways are not our ways and His thoughts re not our thoughts.
what do you think happens user?
what if told you everything you just said is correct.
>FACT!
Not really..explain how you reverse this action please.
Though I suppose this is a troll, only a troll would put forward such an air of naivete...
is that uncle samsonite?
If we're finite, then what is the nature of the energy that makes us? You can't have it both ways. If things are form-dependent, then it doesn't make sense for there to also be a metaphysical thing, free of that physical determinism.
jump on it
The conversion of energy, kinetic or electromagnetic, to particles with rest mass is experimentally observed only when the energy comes in big enough clumps to create a massive particle, when the energy is low, this is going to be the lightest charged particle, the electron. Electrons can only be created along with a positively charged particle, to conserve charge, and this is almost always a positron (in rare weak interactions you can make an electron, a proton, an antineutron and an electron-antineutrino). The production of electron positron pairs only happens for very hard X-rays, or particles moving with a comparable kinetic energy, and you don't have this much energy in a single particle even in an atomic explosion. You need to accelerate particles specially.
Because of this gap between the energy of particles and the energy of the lightest charged particle, you don't usually see conversion of energy to mass in day-to-day life.
However, the creator will speak it to recombine just as he spoke it into existence.
sometimes i ponder killing myself to see what would happen
Hey I never said the number was small but the large number you just described is but a blip within infinity.
We are spiritual beings, not flesh and blood, not atoms and molecules randomly bumping around. We all need to take a step back from what the world tells us and understand this.
English Standard Version
The natural person does not accept the things of the Spirit of God, for they are folly to him, and he is not able to understand them because they are spiritually discerned.
>We are spiritual beings
>not atoms and molecules randomly bumping around
>Electrons can only be created along with a positively charged particle, to conserve charge
>every thought you have ever imagined was a conversion of chemical energy and still exists in the universe
>the creator will speak it to recombine just as he spoke it into existence
Go to hell.
The universe doesn't get an infinity.
There is enough energy in a zero point vacuum to boil all the oceans of the world, much less reconstitute our every thought of movement.
Conciousness is a state in which a dead person can not be.You wont feel it and you wont know it when youre dead.Something that does not exist can not experience anything.Conciousness is like a magnetic field caused by an electromagnet.Once the electricity stops flowing,it disappears.

Because you never consider the enormous ramifications of all of known history, Thermodynamics and swallow everything you learned in public school and the media, I'm stupid?
No, because you consumed the idea of some spirit in the sky wholeheartedly from your time spent mindlessly in Sunday school
Not so. Undisputed fact is, we are either 1.) an accident of the universe and a bunch of random atoms and molecules bumping around without purpose. 2.) Seeded here by aliens and evolving, which by the way is going to be the deception the world accepts in the end times. 3.) Set apart from the old gods who were fallen angels by the long history of played out to give us our Savior Jesus Christ. There is nothing else to grasp onto. We all must decide these things.
Ecclesiastes 1:9 New International Version (NIV)
9 What has been will be again,
what has been done will be done again;
there is nothing new under the sun.
watching brainlet godtards dig themselves further and further into a hole sure is entertaining, they do not even being to grasp the scale of their willful ignorance, its hilarious.
I'm curious which one of the Xnilo origins of life explanations you will be taking to the grave. Just curious if you wish to share.
im ok with death being nothing, you clearly are not.
While I don't understand it. Thanks for sharing, I was curious.
Pretty gay, user.
There is plenty of evidence that your consciousness is a product of your brain.
Sure, we don't know how it works, but we know if we damage the brain the consciousness changes.
Take the case of this guy whose personality completely changed after getting a railroad spike in the head.
surprise! Things that make you unhappy are still true.
we're living in consciousness land lmaaooooo
you don't know that
also who is to say this is the only universe/reality?
maybe time is cyclic and the universe will expand and contract and all of this will happen again in the blink of an eye.
That doesn't make it untrue. A 52 card deck has more permutations than can ever conceivably be repeated in the lifespan of the universe. How many permutations must a human neural network have? The chances of the information that makes "you" ever being repeated again are so insanely small that infinitesimal does not even begin to describe it.
Plagiarizing leddit it pretty gay, user.
That's nice dear. Now go smoke your weed, adults are talking.
This, literally trillions of neurons.
It would be like the universe resetting and expecting to find our Solar System exactly as it is now, with the exact same conditions, position in the galaxy and composition of matter and everything, literally impossible, the nature of n-body gravitational interaction alone eliminates such a possibility because those are truly random interactions.
Nope.
is there evidence of ghosts?
not necessarily, you wont have to worry about reincarnation. in fact you wont really have to worry about anything.
Nice answer.
No, who says? Just cuz you don't like the idea of death? Because that's exactly what it sounds like. Remember how you can't remember shit before you die, not even darkness? That's exactly how death will be. Non existent. Absolute nothingness. Not black, not silence, NOTHING.
Before you were born*
ITT: Some intelligent conversation and a lot of retards who don't know shit.
Our consciousness is just a collection of sensory memories that we've obtained throughout our lives and can reflect on. All we are is just a complex array of chemical reactions that have iteratively generated through billions of years of evolution. I really think that most people don't actually understand how complex our bodies and brains actually are. Once the body dies consciousness will cease to exist for that specific individual. But there will still be other active consciousness' in the universe. You will simply perceive reality through one of those.
I simply asked a question, it was you who lashed out at me. You seem to be upset about death eh? Just wanted to see some interesting opinions.
and the universe was born out of nothing. nice try, its obvious to anyone that isn't retarded that the mental would exist before the physical, and that the physical is nothing more than a reflection of the mental. inb4 shitzo, any sort of materialist view is just the ultimate cope as you waste your free will in this realm. good luck.
In order to answer this question, you have to know what consciousness is, and nobody does quite yet. So anyone who has replied in this thread with any kind of "certainty" is "certainly" wrong.
From everything we've researched so far, the sensation of consciousness seems to arise from the interaction of lower-level complex systems. Look up "complexity theory" if you want to go down that rabbit hole. But the idea is that you have all these individual systems -- components that are specialized to do small tasks, but they all come together and add up to something greater than the sum of their parts.
When you die and these systems shut down and no longer react to stimuli, the overall system loses entropy and the whole thing likely dissipates.

You gave me a good chuckle, thanks.
Strange that the same image was used for a similar thread a year ago.
Applewhite did nothing wrong, literally the most relaxed cult of all time.
I haven’t really looked into it too much honestly. Cults and things of that nature fascinate me though. I’m especially drawn towards Charles Manson. His music isn’t half bad. Do you have any articles I can read on Applewhite and his cult ?
Retard
How can you, a finite being bound to a tiny rock in space possibly comprehend the vast universe let alone say with certainty that it cant be infinite
