Questions about energy?

Question

Mature answers only please.

1. Is everything (mainly discussing human) made of energy?
2. If so, what do you think of the concept of the theory that life cannot be created nor destroyed?
3. What do you think of that theory fitting into the belief of reincarnation, ey?


Just a thought.... =P

Oops, on #2, erase life and replace it with "energy".. my bad!

Answer 1

I agree that energy only changes form. When we die, there has been a scientificly proven sudden expulsion of energy that has even been photographed. I also believe in reincarnation. I like to use the analogy of a had and glove (not without it's flaws I know) But you have a glove. It has it's own mass, and it's own composition. When you add a hand to it, it now has purpose. You wear the glove until it's worn out, then you shed it. The glove is still there, still has it's own mass, but now is just an empty shell, while the hand finds a new glove to wear.

Answer 2

I believe reincarnation is completely true in this sense, when we die we break down into our constituent molecules of carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, and hydrogen. These then become available to be incorporated into other life forms and processes. There is no evidence so far for a soul or energy that would encapsulate some form of consciousness that transcends death. Energy is neither created nor destroyed when we die but the transition from one state to another so far shows no indication of a consciousness surviving. That doesn't necessarily mean it doesn't just that so far there is no scientific evidence for this. The conservation of energy law speaks nothing to the energy being conscious. It is satisfied by the breakdown of our body into individual molecules which then are transformed into something else.

Answer 3

Yes, according to e=mc2, everything is made up of energy. In fact, low vibrational energy is mass. Maybe energy is an illusion that can be manifested by our thoughts? Either, way it stil violates the law of conservation of energy. But pls do explain how you link energy with reincarnation.

Answer 4

Energy cannot be created or destroyed. reincarnation is dependent on the claim that our consciousness is energy and not just a result of the interactions between the neurons in our brains.

If reincarnation exists it is simply the same reincarnation that we see every day. You eat a dead animal and use it's parts to create your own living cells.

Answer 5

1. Yes....e=mc2

2. Not much. as energy is transfer from state to state, that which is defined as 'living' can die and vice-versa

3. Again, not much. Reincarnation is where the spiritual and physical realms intersect. One realm is not dependent on the other.
