"I wonder what it is like to be dead."

It won't be like anything at all. There will be no senses to gather data nor a brain to process data. This is beyond simple.

I disagree , none of us know shit when it comes to death its not comparable with the next day or the one before. You will get to experience tomorrow as you are experiencing this moment but when it comes to death all we can base our assumptions off are our outside perceptions of a carcass, we did not experience it as we do right now so how can we have any rationale sense on the matter.

Some of us actually know how to use deductive reasoning and extrapolation. All evidence points towards a non-experience while zero evidence points towards a different kind of experience.

I think after death = before birth. Plenty of people lived before I was born, plenty will come after. They will experience but they won't be "me." Then again, I'm not the me I was a few minutes ago.

I swear I'm not making a simple thing complex.

How exactly does the concept of non-experience work cant that be a type of experience in itself the non kind? Sure you will dead but does that mean the atoms that you are comprised of will be? I 'm probably wrong but i was under the impression that atoms don't die, a scientist can step in here and correct me.

I don't think the term non-experience has been coined yet as opposed to non experienced which is another thing.

Atoms don't die, but neither do atoms have color. Color is an emergent property when atoms or molecules clump together.

Atoms are not human, but get enough together in the perfect configuration and - voila! Deconstruct the configuration and the human and all of it's properties also go away.

This thread should have been a half-pager, but it will likely continue long after its natural death. :ohwell:

If the question is strictly physical perception/senses and not pertainint to anything spiritual or the after life, then my input is no. Dead is dead. Gone. Decaying, decomposing, no longer functioning, no electrical activity or neuronal activity.

So what happened before you were born and developed a brain, or what about the transition developing a brain?

Nothing will most likely happen when you die, that's right. Nothing. It's impossible for the ego or personality structure grasping this in the present, that's why humans are frightened of it. Why do you think cats and dogs are able to relax and lay down like no human? They don't know about death but are merely based on instincts or very low intelligence, humans are intelligent and thus understand death like no other animal would ponder on. Our ancestors were much more wild and careless in the nature compared to us but unfortunately evolution fucked us and we developed "higher" intelligence and awareness. This is certainly why everyone is chasing so-called "ego-death" or escape from existence to understand nothingness IMO.

What frightens me like nothing else (besides pain and insanity)?

Nothing and this breaks my ego - I am a nobody, nothing of real importance in the very big picture.

But when I think it through, it does feel kind of good not existing but what is nothing?

This is the state I was in before I was born, now do I want this state or not? I don't know; drugs, shower and music based on my ego or self-importance feels too good to let go off just like that. :shrug:

You started it bro :haha:

I am aware that the human and all its properties are dis configured upon death, but since the atom does not die and everything is construct of atoms .. Recycling seems like a possibility so although there may not be a brain or nervous system to perceive any senses , it may be possible for those atoms to comprise into something else along the line. Even though it wont be connect to 'you' per se.

I get what your saying Liquidos and i agree with both you and OC when it comes to all sense's perceived as 'you' vanishing with your body. But if everything is comprised of atoms isn't everything somewhat connected to some extent and as things don't die on the atomic level and presumably get recycled, how does death beyond biology and egoic structure apply.. i might be taking this a bit far but i cant help but wounder

Sorry but you simply can't know. For someone to talk about logic and reason and then draw an assumption that there is no experience after death is based on absolutely nothing. It might SEEM that way on the surface, but you simply can't sceintifically or logically prove it. So

It's no more ridicious to assume there is experience after death than to assume there isn't. Everything about this experience is a complete mystery.

This is beyond wrong and is the usual erroneous stance of the mystic-head. I don't know that the next baby born won't have super powers, so what? There is no reason to believe so.

Any educated person knows that science starts with the null hypothesis; that something is considered non-existent and not worth examination UNTIL SUCH TIME AS EVIDENCE IS PRESENTED.

Uh yes, there is. What happened before you were born? This is by far the most logical approach to death.

Doesn't matter.  Since there is no evidence to be had for the beyond death experience no one can definitively evaluate it. We can guess what is likely to happen  but that's it.  My guess is there is nothing beyond death but it's an unknown ultimately.

What happened before birth is hardly a guess, I assume you remember nothing. Do you merely 'guess' this is what will happen when you die?

There's no memory to be had before you were born, this is nothingness. Pre-birth and after the moment you're dead.

Is there anything to remember when your brain is soil?

I'm not willing to make any assumptions beyond that.

So what do you base death on? God?

Death is here and it will take us all down, with no care.

Memory is not an indicator of experience.

Why not? Memories are all you have, there is a present but it's certainly a mere memory the moment you think of it.

If you have a line, there's a beginning and ending, it's not infinite - this birth and death.

if its so ridiculous than why ponder it and start a thread about how ridiculous it is?

that sounds ridiculous to me.

This. The idea of an afterlife actually induces more death anxiety it seems, than the idea of no afterlife. OCs crusade against all things spiritual and 'after', seem to stem from a serious death anxiety, a desperate need for there to be no more when there is no more.

No. If there's an afterlife I don't know what it would be with any certainly.  It could be good or not.  My DA seems to center on not leaving this personality structure and body on this green earth.  But if I have to leave it I certainly hope there's some decent afterlife to continue on with.  I seem to have garden variety DA.

"... I don't know what it would be with any certainly." this seems to be where DA centers, uncertainty .

This uncertainty is what is most taken advantage of, in any situation.

Ex. Going to hell for behaving outside of religious morality. Going to heaven otherwise.

Which creates all sorts of anxiety, for myself atleast, even if I do not believe in religion. I have had some heavenly trips, and some hellish ones as well...We have been conditioned to believe that death is a scary thing.

Even now we are reading in whispers.
