Think about air we breath, food we eat, water we drink they are all given back when we go to the bathroom. The body we occupy is also given back when we die.
The big picture is that Everything that we have on Earth is not ours, right? We have to give everything back when we Die.
So shouldn't we use everything to the fullest if we borrow something, which means LIFE?

To besthitter2001: Well, the prob is that I don't really believe in we're judged by good deeds and stuff because I'm beginning to think that we're here on purpose which means that our lives have been written already. So you're doing what you're suppose to do even if it's crime.

To gjmb1960: Very good questions. I wish I have all the answers but I don't so I can give you my opinion. i believe that we're beyone physical beings here. Yes, spiritual world does exist and it's another dimension in which we don't understand. So our spirit is borrowing the physical world has to offer and that means pain and pleasure as we have it here. It's temporary so we are borrowing everything, including all the feelings we get from this world. Thanks for asking.

To Janet: You were a toss up for number one question. I believe what you're saying is very very valid. I see more evidence that there is recycling of life than just heaven and hell. So which is it? I say, it's 50/50 for me at this time. I like to believe that we have a better place to be than coming back here again and again for eternity.

I found your question through the link from "what's the point..." blah blah blah. anyway, my answer there seems to be linked to your question here.
Our body is a mere vessel to carry a soul through the transition of higher being. Our vessel, our body goes back into the earth " ashes to ashes" and the cycle continues. AS our soul is transformed into new life. There is a common belief through religions that use this 'theory'.
We are born of the earth; our soul acts as our guide. Life is recycled from dirt to spirit.

Well what you are saying or asking is the concept of most religions. We are here on this planet to live a borrowed life and whatever we plan to do with this life is on our behalf. The sins the good deeds then will be on all our responsiblity. Yes we should use everything to the fulllest as long we are responsibile with our actions. Thats why use this time on earth wisely my friend.

Absolutely correct. I was told recently that our body doesn't really belong to us, but to Nature and the Universe. We only borrow it and use it as an instrument to achieve a spiritual purpose. That's why I also believe in several lives, in respect to Nature itself, which is always in a constant cycle, like leaves fall and come back in spring and so on, we also die and come back in another body and so on.
My religion is Spiritism and I believe in reincarnation.
Peace!

God is the original recycler. Of course you give everything back. How do you think you would keep it all anyway? Yes, live life to the fullest. And make sure you are right with God.

Only the material goes back to the earth. Your life force is not going to be recycled as some other person, but instead will remain YOU into eternity, that is, if you choose eternal survival.
