[QUOTE=ZeroMinus;27357814]we'll never know until we kick the bucket[/QUOTE] That statement is a huge contradiction. You see we really dont exist at all in a sense we are merely an aware section of the universe, who we are with our memories, thoughts, feelings, and all that human junk is merely a product of the brain. When we die the awareness of our environment and awareness of self dies with us, so the ability to learn also dies with us so there is nothing to learn when dead.

Scientist have done some research about life after death.I'm not gonna explain all the details but this woman was brain dead for a full 45 minutes.Despite being clinically dead, when the woman was resuscitated, she recounted experiences she had while dead,like interacting with deceased relatives. Even more amazing is that this woman was able to describe aspects of the surgical procedure. I believe that there is a life after death....people here don't know how to think.They just focus on trying to make funny posts.

This alone explains every single event she experienced, its all a physical anomaly and not some paranormal experience. You also seem to not understand that even when the main [B]you[/B] is unconscious the brain is still receiving data so if the brain is kept alive even minimally you will/could experience extreme hallucinations. NDEs are really easy to explain in today's understanding of the brain.

[QUOTE=superdinoman;27358184]NDEs are really easy to explain in today's understanding of the brain.[/QUOTE] That was actually an OBE.
[QUOTE=ZeroMinus;27358189]It depends, when you die your no longer part of your physical body[/QUOTE] Once again another assumption mind and body are separate. The mind is merely a out come of the way of brain functions, no brain no you. [QUOTE=NoobSauce;27358251]That was actually an OBE.[/QUOTE] If you want to be technical an OBE is merely a subset of NDEs. Some people have them others dont, either way it is still an NDE as the person is [b]near[/b] death but not dead.

[QUOTE=NoobSauce;27358308]But the person was dead!Stop confusing me.[/QUOTE] No she wasnt, the brain starts to die mere minutes after being oxygen deprived. If she had died she would of been like Terri Schiavo.
Your animated corpse will linger on Facepunch and make puns and headgear. Or so I'm told.
So in other words OP is wondering what's it like to dead, there's no answer for that question, from the dead's perspective anyway. When there's life, there's always death, which you can tell by the non-existent vital signs, so you possibly can't feel anything. So, what's after death? Just nothing? Probably But it's funny how as an individuals we only go through a very minimal part of the whole timeline of our Planet, you know? Basically, what you felt when you weren't born yet? Then you got birth, you started wondering what the fuck is going to happen when you die so you can't do anymore awesome shit, then you die and.. God damnit!
6 feet under the ground in a hole or burnt to ash. That's it.
Reincarnation would certainly suck. Think of being stripped of everything and going through all that pain over again. For example: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Mixd7ss83Y[/media]
Am i the only Person who doesn't want an afterlife? Immortality sucks, even in heaven. You think i wanna do whatever i do in paradise or heaven for infinity? No, you're gonna get tired of everythin and just become a lustless sack of shit. The end is the salvation. Its like reading an awesome book or playing an awesome game, but it never ends.
I tried it, not as cool as you think it would be. Pretty dull actually.

New age nonsense with no backing but still an interesting notion to think about. This is also a pretty nice out look on things even if it is just a movie [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B9pCW7IIRO0[/media]
Where do you go when you go to sleep dreamless? Same place. Complete peace.
Where's the "who gives a fuck" option? Stop thinking about death and think more about life
Well, I've always thought "another life," but with absolutely no recollection of any previous ones. It's just an appealing idea to me.
Why does it even MATTER what's after death? When you're alive, you're not dead, and when you're dead you're not alive. So it doesn't affect you until you can no longer care.
I will live forever or die trying
I'll tell you after I've respawned.
I would like to be able to live forever, even if it's in some robot thing, just to observe how our world ends up. See new developments, technology, etc. But realistically, I'll die. That'll be it, nothing after that.
