If you want to know what death is like you experience it every night when you sleep. everynametaken Send a noteboard - 06/09/2010 04:37:41 AM
I was going to burn there forever before. A couple of times. But I have met very few people that actually believe that...at least ones that will admit it.


there is no hell. Death is the absence of life. Eternal torment is hogwash.


Think about it. You lose all consciousness and your brain levels drop to a point where consciousness does not operate anymore. that is in the stage called Delta anyways. REM sleep with dreaming is different, but I digress. In Delta sleep you simply are aware of nothing. That is what I envision death as, that is what I hope for anyways. I think being in a Heaven when I know people whom I loved are missing because they are in Hell would paradoxically be Hell itself.
But wine was the great assassin of both tradition and propriety...
