I would like to know?

Question

for the people who say that when we die we Just dont excist anymore, we are gone etc, just in the ground. How do you know this? you say it like you know its a fact, how do you know? one person got very upset at one question and said she is tired of people telling her she doesnt know what happens when we die, because she does know, we are just gone. How do you know?

Answer 1

You're not going to get any real answers hon, they have no proof.

Answer 2

HOnestly, I wish I knew for sure. But as Albus Dumbledore once said, "death is just the next great adventure" so it cant just be nohingness. it has to be something if it is an adventure. Those people who say OH! I know!! are mostlikely lying if they say it is nothingness. I say this because if you ask amyone who has had an out of body experience (where you are dead and DR.'s bring you back to life) they say it was peaceful they saw dead family and or friends and a bright light.

one guy even says that he saw God and God said " so what did you do with your life."


Edit: people who say we are gone, if our brain stoping is the only thing that divides life and death, then what makes us concience now? can your science tell us why we can understand things and write and creat coomputers but a dog cant? Science can tell us what stumulates tears. but can it tell us why we cry those tears when we are called a bad name? NO IT CANT!! science cant prove anything and what happens after death is one of them so stop acting so smart!!!!

Answer 3

Let's check with Yahweh and see what he says

Ecc 9:4 For to him that is joined to all the living there is hope: for a living dog is better than a dead lion.


Ecc 9:5 For the living know that they shall die: but the dead know nothing, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten.

Answer 4

We know that when people die, we (traditionally) bury their corpses in the ground. We don't know anything else.

Surely even the most religious among us have to admit that what they "know" through "faith" is not the same as what they know through practical experience.

I wouldn't go so far as to make absolute pronouncements as to what "happens" when we die. For all I know, we all go to Disneyland. Do I believe that? No, nor do I believe in the Christian Heaven and Hell. Based on everything I DO know, I tend to believe that it's simply religious mythology designed to assuage man's fear of death, but not a real "answer."

Answer 5

Logically when our bodies stop working, our minds are gone. Permanently and irrevocably.

Certainly this is not a provable fact, but there is no evidence for any alternative explanation. This lack of evidence would tend to support the assertion that there is nothing after death.

Answer 6

I'd certainly like to know that, myself. For me, there have been too many people who have come back from dead and said their spirit was still alive. I know people who were clinically dead (no heartbeat, pulse, breathing, or brain activity), went to either Heaven or Hell, and were allowed to come back. No, they weren't hallucinating or dreaming; that requires brain activity and they had none! One guy I know personally was diagnosed as brain dead and about to be taken off the ventillators when he came back. He had been in Hell for three days, then angels took him on a quick fly-over tour of Heaven before bringing him back. That's proof enough for me that we don't cease to exist when we die.

Answer 7

Atheists are content to believe that when you die, your body stays in the grave but that's just not true...

John 5:28-29.
"The dead in the graves will hear the voice of God's Son, and they will rise again. Those who have done good will rise to eternal life, and those who have continued in evil will rise to judgment."

Answer 8

No one knows. It's the biggest mystery in the world. It kinda sucks because I really am curious and want to know where my family is and where I will go. That is the first thing I will ask God when (and if) I see Him. Why did you make death such a mystery?

Answer 9

Some people remember us and we live in their memories.

There is no death, only change. Science says so and can prove it. That is not a theory. We may become inaminate and inorganic, but we still live on.

If anything, Lucy proves that. I may not be a fan, evolution wise, of Lucy, but her bones prove we live on.

Some day, someone will dig up our bone and tell others WE EXISTED.

That that will be true.

It may not prove a bag of theoretical beans, but it will be true.

Answer 10

Unless she experienced death then how can she know?
Mans logic.When we pass,we don't grow old and rotton in the ground although our flesh does.I believe when we pass,our spirit is released to heaven awaiting judgement day.I know this because the bible is my text to truth.I would rather live by christian faith than logic all together.

Answer 11

Read Ecclesiastes 9:5&6 it says that the dead knows nothing.No one has ever come back to tell us anything diffrent.
