If God is real, he didn't put you through anything. He set up the universe and is letting it run its course. If you believe he is specifically targeting you, then you would have to believe that he is directly blessing everyone who has good things, although those people are just as likely to be non-believers as not. I don't believe in heaven or hell or any God who would create them. I am torn between death being the end and reincarnation. But it doesn't really matter, since I'll find out if it's reincarnation and won't know it if it's not. As far as Tylenol being your friend, it's a really poor way to commit suicide! The only way you could kill yourself with that is to take so many you shut your liver down, which could take a week or two to kill you. If you want a real friend, see your doctor and get some antidepressant medication. Then when your brain is working right again, get some counseling, please.

I know there is a Heaven. So many people before me have talked of such a place. I am a born-again Christian and I believe God created Heaven. If we all just died and that was it, there would be no real reason to be good. There'd be nothing to live for. We are here for a purpose. That is to serve God. And that is a joy!!!!!!! Then after, if we ask Jesus into our heart, we go to Heaven and live there forever with Jesus! It is sooo great to think about, knowing that it is true. Life would be worthless without an 'after life'.

This is a question that many people ask. What is after death? Is there another life? Is there nothing? Its been haunting people for many thousands of years.
But reading the bible is one way to help you learn more, its not to be taken literally, but it shows of a type of afterlife. As for what will it be like, only anyone can guess. Death is scary to a lot of people, if not for you yourself dying, but possibly leaving behind those you love, knowing that you are no longer there for them.
All you can do it try to live this life as good as you can, enjoy it, be with them, love them, and be loved by them and pray that if something happens to you, that the ones you love are taken care of and kept from harms way, because if there is an afterlife, this life is just temporary and you will be together in the next one.

Reincarnation of the continuous form, keeps us in this reality contained in this universe. It does not allow for escape to an alternate type reality. This world was meant to be a struggle. A strong person can often overcome great odds, endure great pain and hardship, and come out of it with great achievement. This reality can bring out the most in the human spirit. Any spiritual strength gained from one life, would serve one well in the next lives. We need a belief system, that focuses on this reality, since this world has many serious problems that need addressing. We could have a lot better world if people would take on the neccessary hardship and struggle to overcome these problems. I believe our spirit often leaves our body in our dreams, enters the spiritual realm, and returns before we wake, and a similar thing happens at death. I believe the reason dreams often seem real, is because they often are.

The condition of the dead is made clear at Ecclesiastes 9:5, 10, where we read: “The dead know nothing . . . There is no pursuit, no plan, no knowledge or intelligence, within the grave.” (Moffatt) Death, therefore, is a state of nonexistence. The psalmist wrote that when a person dies, “he goes back to his ground; in that day his thoughts do perish.”—Psalm 146:4.
So the dead are unconscious, inactive. When pronouncing sentence upon Adam, God stated: “Dust you are and to dust you will return.” (Genesis 3:19) Before God formed him from the dust of the ground and gave him life, Adam did not exist. When he died, Adam returned to that state. His punishment was death—not a transfer to another realm.

If there is no afterlife, this life would be a complete waste. We are just walking, talking puppets. Thats why the most and only important thing in life is love. Nothing else matters.
Its hard for me to believe there is anything after this life, but its even harder to believe there is nothing.
Everything in life is a test.

This is one of the greatest crimes some religions have done to humanity.
Religions alway have been exploiting this kind of human weakness for centuries.
"How do u know that it just doesn't turn black when u die, nothing , no love, cold, warmth, nothing, nothing but nothingness. "
Method of scientific inquiry tells us that when we are dead, we are dead.
We all can imagine how after death may be, but is it really reasonable to think that there is anything after?
You certainly seem to hope that there is afterlife, but what you wish for doesn't make that it exists in reality, so your special pleading has no truth values.

Heres the deal, as I see it. We don't KNOW anything for sure and we're not going to KNOW for sure. If we knew for sure it would ruin the value of our lives here. The life we lead on this earthplane is a learning exercise for the soul. We live lives here and progress as souls. When we die we go through a life reveiw and rest up for our next incarnation. There comes a time when we are finally developed enough as souls to rejoin with God and we reach Nirvana. At least that is what I believe. Can't prove it though.

Please take the time to read the Bible. Get yourself a King James Bible and read it. Start from the book of John.
If you would read the Bible, you will see that God has a purpose for you. He loves you and He wants you to know about Him. You were not born for the sole purpose of only eating, drinking, working, then you died.
"Because He Lives, I can face tomorrow. Because He Lives, I have a future...."

I believe in heaven and in hell. I believe that although I am very undeserving that I will be in heaven with my Father. I know I will be happy because my heart longs to be with Him now!!!!
