there's no requirement to stay concerned with or live inside "culture"
plus there's always drugs and neat experiences to be had
maybe you need a new friend, icelander?

Your personal comments are out of line. I have a friend that is beyond your comprehension.
Everyone lives inside and is concerned with culture. Think man.

IMO no. There is no evidence that is reasonable for the existence of a soul. The idea of soul, imo, is a direct result of death anxiety in man.

Are you tired of yourself as well?

Nothing wrong with being tired of ones life. Maybe some folk want something more. Don't be so fast to laugh, I've got a feeling you are going to find this out for yourself one day.

Nah my life is awesome. I just don't care if I die if it benifits the life force because either the other side will be awesome, or there will be nothing, or maybe i'll end up in hell. No way to know for sure.

I wasn't saying that you don't like your life. I was just saying there is nothing wrong with that position for anyone. Some people have high standards.

Oh i was replying to ploid. Yea i definitely want more from life. I've seen what I want in dreams and trips. heaven sure is beautiful... and achievable here on earth but not at this stage in human evolution. Yea Civilization is a bitch. I mean that in saying your culture is forced upon you.. YOU ARE CULTURE. Culture is not this book type set of customs and rules for you to follow like everyone sees it. That just makes you a robot. You are programmed by your culture. It shouldn't be like that. I applaud anyone who denies their culture in place of their own.

How is death more than life?

What is the "life force"?

You are correct, there is no way to know for sure.

The Life force is the biological spirit. God. Whatever deity you believe in. If your are atheist then the overall well being of all living species living and yet to be living.

And death could easily be more than life if there is something on the other side.
