such reasoning, such discussion. Just No and No.
You guys are mentally masturbating on shared views and if someone has views not shared you won't even try do anything meaningful with them.
Life isnt miserable, you guys are.
Have fun.

8) much off old age is miserable as a visit to any old age or nursing home will show
My dad built a boat from plate steel in a field, sailed to Portugal in it with his 20 years younger second wife, eventually sold the boat and now has two properties, including one with olive trees, orange trees, a veggie garden and well, if I send him something in the mail a guy on a donkey delivers it to him, they spend their time going from BBQ party to BBQ party, live music, jolly villagers with their own vinyards..
He's 80 years old and obese.
Old age isnt miserable, not having a plan and being carted off to an old folks home is.
Old folks homes are for the people who failed at life.
yay i'm gonna be your dad soon but not obese

i am created by the totality of everything which means that the effort to oversimplify or validate cause and effect are difficult to determine. this is not mental masturbation, which would be more of just saying anything pleasing until the world is gushing.

My beliefs are sort of similar to Taoism. I believe as long as you have desire or lead a harmful life, you will keep reincarnating, but when you rid yourself of attachments to the world like desires, and lead an admirable life, then you actually pass on to the next plane of existence

you have a version of taoism that is too concerned about consequences in an afterlife.
when do you think the whole confusion about "it will come back to you later" and "it will have consequences in your next life" begin?
probably older than taoism and totally obvious

the afterlife proposal attempts to corral the behavior of committing crimes that people get away with.
apparently it is not enough for some people like Donald Trump to accept a narrative truth in which they are caught red-handed.
lying apparently can get you out of jail.
therefore, convince everyone that karma is not the truth about action in this 'honest' life, but a cosmic deal with a devil or with god, in which you destroy your future lives aka soul, after lying and getting out of jail and dying and being reborn or heaven and hell.

yes, heaven and hell are art forms, or artifice. I prefer heavenly art and actions than hellish ones.

The brain is an organ and when it ceases, so does our consciousness and bodily functions. I don't believe there's anything after that.

that is a fair beginning; it limits the scope of observation to what is observable about life, while living.
need there be a wider scope?
