what you guys think.

when you die there is nothing forever

edit: religion, reincarnation, etc is just the human response to not knowing what happens after we die

ya but half the shit we think is right now, is probably completely wrong once you advance a 100 years. we used to think the world was flat and look where we've come, we have a better understanding of the way things work but somethings we percieve as "correct" could be completely and utterly wrong.

you could say the same for what you just said in your edit about the thing you believe, which is "nothingness" after you die. nobody is sure at all so they just go with the reason that seems best to them.

You say its just the human response to not knowing, well so is believing in nothingness, wouldn't you rather believe in something that could be there wether its there or not? Even if it is nothingness, you really wanna say before you die, "oh ya, good old nothingness, here we come." and have no hope whatsoever. hopes all ya got, without it your nothin.
