RE: What happens after death?

So I guess we become Ungulates when we die?

I don't know how we managed to transform a topic about death into a topic about maths and logic, but intrestingly we did!

Clearly, math and logic are the answer to the God question.

A topic about death is so much more than that. Death is merely a term we assign to the manifestation of an unknown number of unknown facets of existence, and math and logic are most commonly applied to attempts to understand death because they are the most mysterious to us.

I personally agree with that, but most people just don't perceive death (and similar/other topics) in the same way. They avoid maths and logic at all cost, as it gives them headache. But for me, reasoning and mathematical analysis is not merely a headache. It's a way of thinking.

Personally, I started talking about logic as a way to demonstrate to people who don't understand the concept, that logic is not the answer to anything and cannot alone be used to show that something is factual or not. It is merely a structure that we can use, if you put shit into it you get shit out. Likewise however if you put facts into it you get facts out, so long as the form is followed.

I wouldn't say so. You could construct a logical argument that shows the God must exist. It wouldn't be based on evidence because none exists, so you've got a problem using that structure to show factually if God exists or not.



I feel that outright dismissal of religious concepts such as God and Life after death is a shame. Considering Reincarnation for example, if you take away the element of your actual consciousness being transferred, it should be quite clear that our bodily form will be incorporated into new life.

Likewise with God, it is certainly true that a certain dust cloud existed before our solar system that would go on to form firstly our Sun, which in turn would churn out the complex molecules needed to create 'life' and send them out into the newly formed planets including (but not limited to) Earth. If you want to get into the question of whether or not it was intelligent well, then, you're going to have to figure out how to define intelligence (IQ tests don't count Tongue).

Presumably you mean "is not merely a headache" Tongue

It was a joke. We've already been over this exact issue so I don't think it needs reiterating.
