    I think that death is nothing more than the end of your existence, nothing will happen afterwards your 'spirit/soul' won't go anywhere, you will just end

    For me, religious belief, even if fervent and heartfelt, doesn't qualify as certainty. Such belief is a willing choice to behave AS IF something is certain, even though we have no way to know for sure. As I get older, I find it less and less necessary to do that, because I am less and less bothered by uncertainty. I am not at all afraid of being punished by God for not pretending that I know what happens after death. Nor am I afraid of being punished for failing to pick the right holy book to tell me what I must believe.

    No, it will be precisely the right time, I think.

    That's a topic I recently posted seeking help. I still am anser if u got one. Anyway.
    That's it man, When you die you're gone. Life is given to you simply as a Tease. You're born just to feed death. I don't see death as a state, I see it as a monster. A monster that feeds on our fears of it. And when we actually die we are free of this monster and everything els.

    I am but a colony of micro-organisms. As an entity I may die, but there is no real death, something inside will live on - even if it's the bacterial that ended me.

    I see death as just another part of the journey.
    To say that we live, then die, and that's it... it seems a little pointless to me.
    I'd like to believe there is more to it than that, but one can only wait and see I guess lol.

    Great question. I believe death is really the start of the ultimate homecoming party. One of God's children is finally coming home. It's a time to celebrate.

    Thank you all for sharing your views on the reality of death.
    Whatever each of us believe is beyond death,death itself is something all of us agree on.

    Death makes all of us equal,rich,poor,beautiful,happy,sad,status,good,ba d..

    I've always believed that when we die, its like going to sleep. The only difference is you won't wake. No pain, suffering, worrying, dreaming. Just darkness, total peace.

    Funny, the bible even describes it that way. Who whould have thought it possible, no hell, doesn't exist. Just a figment of the churches imagination.
