What do you think happens when you die?

Question

I have my own beliefs (absolutely NOTHING to do with God or religion) but I'm just curious to know what you think.

the answer I think is closest to mine gets 10 points

Answer 1

did i miss an * ?

Answer 2

Consider these:

1) ALL religions believe in heaven and hell (weird, huh? - Not only Christianity)

2) There are mediums who can communicate with dead people's spirits... (or ppl with 6th sense or some sensitive ppl who can use Oujia board etc) - indicating the existance of souls

3) Science cannot determine the existance of our feelings... For example: why some people are happy when they have nothing and why some people are sad when they have everything? (Three dimension) Science can only determine touchable / solid things (Two dimension). Stuff like souls are beyond science.

4) Our ancestors believe in God. Most people who don't believe in God are those who actually disappointed at God and decided to leave God.

5) Since the beginning of the earth people believe in the existance of spirits (so none could be called an atheist really). All countries in the world have their own religions and they all believe in the Spirit of Holiness, Goodness, and Love (God)-- Although they may call it different names.

The question "what happens when you die" really could only be explained spiritually or three-dimensionally. Ignoring the thousand of years of religion really do more harm than believing it in the end.

So yeah... I think (hopefully) I will go to heaven after I die =)

Answer 3

Your molecules return to the random nothingness from whence they came. There's not one scintella of evidence regarding an afterlife.

Regarding a 'soul", I have an interesting theory on this. As of right now, most believe there is no way to destroy energy, matter yes, but energy only changes form...We all know that virtually all life and all substances known have some form of energy (positive and negatively charged usually)....anyway, I believe that the soul is a projection of what is left after the body leaves us. It in essence is the willful form underneath our skin.

Once our body dies, electrical impulses still flow through the body for a limited amount of time after which I can only assume the charges leave the body (kind've like our own gravitational field) as there is nothing functioning (such as the synapses in the brain) that causes charge/energy. At this time our soul and all knowlege we've acquired is free to do as it pleases. Most go where they've always believed they were to go (heaven/ valhalla/ another world/ no where/ etc) as all that is left is pure impulse and knowledge.

Answer 4

The consciousness/energy/awareness that is aware of being here, of being alive, of what animates this body will continue on. The energy(energy cannot be destroyed)slips out of the body in a rush--and depending on your state of mind could feel like scary free falling or a peaceful letting go.
Then, not being hampered by the dense body, the consciousness/energy/awareness will move on to a different plane of existence and than more than likely come back in a new body or decide to explore other realms(it depends on the level of insights and how strong the unfulfilled desires are in the person---i.e Thoughts). Great question!

Answer 5

Your heart stops beating, your brain stops functioning, some one declares you dead, there may be an autopsy, there will definitely be paperwork for someone, unless you were murdered and the body disposed of, maybe even then, there may be a funeral, the may be a grave, you may end up in a hospital for years to come, it varies, but; one thing is for certain you will be missed. Even when they aren't sure you are dead, you will be missed. If only for that fact that you are no longer taking up space others may want, you will be missed. You may have monuments in your name. You may have days in your honor. You may have children in your name. You will be missed. And in the long and short of things, that is what happen when you die, people miss you.

Answer 6

After a sweet and swift passing of the soul and intelligence from the body,( what we only know here in our mortality as the "spirit world"), we then take our energy matter, (consisting of intelligence and spirit), and continue on, to learn more. That which we may not have had the oppotunity to learn about in mortality. We will contuinue to gain knowledge, as we await the opportunity and instruction on how to utilize such knowledge.

Answer 7

This is a great question. I think ToxicShadow has it down. I am not sure what happens to the memories or knowledge that our minds hold, but the energy continues. I have lost several people I love, I believe that when they are very strongly in my thoughts for no reason, that their energy is close by.

Answer 8

Relegion is the most important part of any persons life. go through relegious books thoroughly u will find the answer to your question. you cannot divert from relegion. without relegion we are an empty shell. try to read the quran for a change. you will get your answers there. according to books we perish in body but our soul, our essence goes to heaven or hell according to how we have been on earth. if good then heaven if bad then hell surely

Answer 9

When we die the cells in the body gets slowly inactive and
starts dry up as the multiple or billions of biochemical reactions
stops. The mind or the soul factor diminishes and fades away.

Answer 10

The spirit goes to the spirit world to await the Resurrection. Then it will be reunited with the body. If God does exist (which he does) then if one believes in him has nothing to worry about and if he doesn't then he will have a lot to answer for since we have the scriptures and all we have to do to believe them is to read them and pray for our hearts to be open to the truth.

Answer 11

You become a flying red muppet that can speak only to ONE retarded child. Thus making people believe they are retarded. You will recieve $14 which you will spend almost imediatly on an addiction to something we cannot imagine and little blue dots will comunicate with you via sticky notes. You will never wear pants.
