Approach this question from whichever field you believe can best answer it:

What happens to you after you die?

You being your consciousness, memory, personality, likes and dislikes etc. Your mind, your ego, your spirit - whatever.

My personal view is that there is grossly insufficient data to make any conclusion, but we can tentatively speculate as the brain goes, so do 'you.'

>there is grossly insufficient data to make any conclusion

But that is just plain wrong. People have been dying since FUCKING FOREVER! Since ALWAYS! We have more than enough data. We know exactly what happens when you die. We have know for fucking ever. People like you just refuse to accept reality.

It is because you are scared. You live a sad insignifigant life, choosing to be happily ignorant. You grasp to magic and complete bullshit.

The real problem is that you end up wasting away YOUR PRECIOUS LIFE! Instead of making the most out of the limited time you have, you fuck yourself over with deldsions of some bullshit afterlife fantasty! You live a miserable half-life. Never reaching your full potential! The only thing that really matter is the here and now! Make the most out of life NOW!

There is no afterlife, you do not "carry on"! Grow up!

How can any certainty be applied in any direction here?

How does any approach in this field of thinking better the only actual moment that exists; the present?

Above all, how can you fellows apply such universalism to such a question? Name-calling and ranking each on merits that can neither be spoken nor measured.

Live, question, don't answer, and die.

Goodnight, sentients.

I was hoping you were a one time troll a fool without determination, but do you fail to realize the inherent problem with your statement? People have been dying of alzheimer's since the dawn of man and we still don't know how it works.

Why would something happening mean we suddenly understand it? The dead cannot report back, clearly there is an impenetrable (or near impenetrable, as is the case with NDE's) wall between life and death.

Also, your logic considering death a rule-all proof that nothingness ensues postmortem is uncomfortably absolute. "The absence of evidence is not the evidence of absence."

Why make assumptions about the post-ee's personal life? I believe your temperamental attitude needs a dose of its own advice: "grow up".

How is this at all compatible with your claims in >>5767266? Why should we have "personal views" on a phenomenon without any evidence? It's as pointless as discussing non-interacting demons in your closet. Please go back to kindergarden and learn what the scientific method is.

My view in
>>5767330
We do not know definitively of the origin of neurodegenerative disorders (thus one shouldn't make a definitive statement like X causes neurodegenerative disorders) as there is insufficient data.

Having a personal view is fine, I fail to see how my posts are contradictory. But I'm sure you already know they aren't ;)
