Some people suggest that after we die, most choose to come back. If it really works like that, I dont think Im coming back. I want this to be my final life.

What, we get a choice? I think in Taoist or bhuddist doctrine, you get reincarnated until you learn all the lessons you’re supposed to and become enlightened. Then you can ascend to heaven. If you don’t learn the proper lessons you get reincarnated indefinately.
Maybe if we get reincarnated though, we won’t get born into this brain sickness and have better lives. Maybe. I’d still opt out though, for overpopulation reasons
I don’t believe in such things anyway. But if it’s true, I will resist to the full extent of my ability. I hate my life. I wish I never existed.
My wife and I just had a conversation about this. She told me she’s afraid of there not being anything after she dies, that it’s the end…. where as I’m the reverse, I’d prefer to blink out and cease to be. Isn’t it weird? I’ll deal with it if I don’t blink out, it’d just be better that way.
Then earlier this week I found out that most humans that have ever lived didn’t live past the age of 10. That definitely changed my outlook, because it would make sense most of us not remembering that short of a former life. Anyway the VAST majority died before age 5, so if one of them came back it would definitely be an incoherent memory.
Maybe that’s how they endured greater cruelty in those days, not having to live with it for so long. I also found out that the life expectancy specifically for teenagers is dropping like a rock because of drugs and suicide, deaths of despair.
IDK, how do you feel about that stuff? I’m like they made their escape, good for them, where ever they are is probably better, especially if it’s nowhere.
I think there’s some jedeo-christian stuff behind the fear of not existing. I don’t understand it either, but religion really centres humanity and puts us above everythign else, and hence instills this fear of not existing amongst its disciples.
I actually think its pretty sad when teenagers kill themselves because they haven’t really had a chance. If they were abused, they might still blame themselves. They haven’t had time to process. If they are queer or gender binary, they might not have figured it out yet. Add to the mix all those raging hormones. It’s not a fair shake. I’m all for the right to suicide, but I think it should be an informed decision by consenting adults. Its also just awful for the parents. It’s always hard to lose a kid, but worse when they’re so young and under parental care…
the whole concept of reincarnation with tabula rasa is ridiculous. how are people supposed to “learn from their mistakes” if, according to reincarnation, people do not retain their memories? if you wipe people’s memories, they will NEVER learn from their ‘mistakes’ and will continue to make the same mistakes over and over again. so then what purpose does “reincarnation” serve? sounds like sysiphus- doomed to repeat for all eternity. that’s the part of reincarnation that makes no sense.
Not so sure about reincarnation, but I do believe that our Spirit lives after physical death. Didn’t always believe that. Just some things have happened that made me believe. It’s the only thing that keeps me going because I don’t want to be a restless soul stuck here, otherwise I am over this life. Everyday is a struggle and I am tired. I really want it to end somehow ‘naturally’ . I am ready. A few months ago I bought my suicide kit and made a plan, sadly it still sitting there. Seems I can’t do it, but I don’t know I just want the end. Don’t want to stay here and don’t want to come back. There is true evil in this world, even in the everyday…
