    if you die and you dont believe in an "afterlife" then, you're just dead, but you wont know you're dead, so it's grand

    How can a future state of existence be dependent on what the subject "believes"? It's either true or it's not! Read some Hume ffs :mad:

    no, i dont mean "believe" really, what i mean, is more like "what someone would be expecting" i suppose...

    but i would think that you dont know anything, cos, you're dead, so how would you know?

    Hume might be a bit much for me - i tend to go off on tangents on topics like this one, and i'd get carried away with it all! lol

    "When you die"

    Old sage wisdom always brings the asker back to the idea of self...What self is...

    Essentially everything is smoke...Some things are more tightly bound smoke, and give the impression of something 'solid' and permanent. We're just waves brah...
