    Cool What happens when you die?

    What do you think?
    Is it cool? Or is it an illusion?
    Use
    writing software in C++ is like driving rivets into steel beam with a toothpick.
    writing haskell makes your life easier:
    reverse (p (6*9)) where p x|x==0=""|True=chr (48+z): p y where (y,z)=divMod x 13
    To throw away OOP for low level languages is myopia, to keep OOP is hyperopia. To throw away OOP for a high level language is insight.

    When you die, you die. You don't really care because as far as consciousness goes you're asleep

    And to make sure this doesn't turn religious: THERE IS NO AFTERLIFE. NOBODY COMES BACK AS SOMEONE WITH WEIRD MARKS ON THEIR HANDS!

    Actually, I'll have to go with Mike on this. I think that you simply cease to be.

    I used to think that when you died, you went to Dimension X, but then I realized that Ninja Turtles was just a cartoon...

    How does that make sure this doesn't turn religious?

    Guess what? I'm very religious and I agree with you. When you die you're gone, and that's it. You're no longer conscious. There's no soul that comes out and goes places..

    By the way, if you're talking about Jesus, I think you just accidently helped this thread turn religious. If you didn't mention anyone coming back (or not coming back) with marked hands, I wouldn't have mentioned Jesus. All I'm gonna say for now is that he, too, didn't have a soul that came out of his dead body and went wherever people like to claim the soul goes after death.

    No I haven't

    But he did type that into the computer himself, right? With that assumption, I conclude that he's not dead.

    Perhaps he didn't. Maybe his spirit willed the data on the server to change, therefore creating a post to this thread. John, get the Ghostbusters before you lose the forums!!

    Ok..playing off that.. He obviously wants me to know he's dead. If he's dead and these messages are still coming, I suppose we could assume he's a ghost or spirit. So if he is, maybe he should come here and show himself. Otherwise, I won't believe he's dead because I don't (and shouldn't) believe everything I see typed up on a forum.

    What do you mean? Everything on these forums is completely and totally true.

    But anyway, yes, I believe a little demostration of your deadness is in order Beacon.

    So what's your definition of dead? A dead corpse simply cannot get up and start walking around. And if you want to insist that you are dead and typing anyway, I'm forced to say I don't and shouldn't believe everything I see typed up in a forum. If I had the resources to do so, I'd head over to your house and prove you're not dead that way. Just because I don't have the resources to definitively prove you're alive doesn't mean you must be dead.

    So why should I believe you're dead just because you say so?

    No my body was cremated well thats what i thought well put it this way i havent seen it walking around anywhere.

    I'm not asking you too believe that i'm dead but i am asking you this:

    Why arent i dead? Just coz you can/could fly over here to heaven and see my typing away on my pentium100 2000000 terrhert machine doesnt mean i'm alive does it?

    I get this all the time dont worry. You not dead! You'll come around when you realise your dead as well!

    That's assuming I could fly to heaven.

    I can easily turn around and say that if I could fly over to your house and see you typing at your plain ordinary computer, that doesn't mean you're dead..

    I'm saying there is no reason for me to believe you're dead, so it's safe to assume you're alive.

    And i'm saying there's no reason for you to believe i'm alive.
    The only reason you think i'm alive is because there's no reason for you to believe i'm dead.
    Thats your perception because you think i'm alive and you also think your alive but in actual fact your dead and so am i!

    Your dead this is the afterlife pretty normal hey! Why? Because you dont remember bieng alive do you?

    All this depends on your definition of alive and dead.

    For example, in the traditional teaching of heaven and hell, they say the soul comes out and goes on living in whether heaven or hell. So if this is the afterlife, we're all living in the afterlife. That means we're still living. Afterlife or no afterlife.

    Dead means unmoving, inanimate, unconscious, not doing anything. Alive means the opposite of all that. If you're typing, you're living. If you're dead, you can't be typing, because that's what dead means.

    So.. uhh, if we join your religion, we die and go to heaven, but if we remain evil Christians, Hindus, Bhuddists, etc. we go straight to hell?


    that doesn't sound fair
