Well said -right I'm off to have some fun.....
Oh, just on the off-chance I'll be coming back as my own Great-great-grand-daughter so i'll be one step ahead when I get round to doing the family tree in 2099...

It should read "a real woman should TRY to resist" -bad translation, thanks for pointing it out -am off to change it! That's the fun part, the trying...I remember writing on a thread somewhere on here (about Karma I think) that "its not the having, it's the getting" -same sort of thing...
Just found it and am getting clever at quoting!

Don't be so sure - as Liz Taylor so wisely said:

Sorry for being way off thread...and long-winded!

Re: Corrie's Bill Roach believes in Reincarnation!
Obviously someone's not reading properly & responding with fingers first. I haven't knocked the Lads beliefs, but from what he's written he seems a little upset. (so for the offended here it is in plain speak, go round & have a chat to cheer him up, some people really are to uptight)

That's more like it- although if you still have that gun you wouldn't have to try too hard.
Anyway, as we only have one life(to get back on thread) why not put the gun down?

Why do some people have to think they are different than all other life? Why should sentient beings have souls but non-sentient don't? Look at the gene patterns, we're not that much different than a mouse so what makes us special?
Because we're sentient we have a selfish fear of death so we have to invent a second chance- eat, drink and be merry, there isn't a second chance!

Sentience - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Sentience is the ability to feel, perceive or be conscious, or to have subjective experiences"
A mouse is 'sentient' - so you could reincarnate as one , or maybe were one last time.
I am glad you do not intend to survive death, so I have no chance of meeting you again.
To understand that physical matter is vibrating energy you need read about elementary quantum physics.
I have trawled the web, found plenty of scientific docs, but I have been unable to find any which a mouse could understand.
Since you don't seem to consider the possibility that it could be true, then I assume that you do not want to know.
So I wont waste my time further

You expressed your opinion, I expressed mine. You got offensive, I haven't.
So if your right, you'll come back as a virus, I'll come back as another beautiful human being. Seems fair.

Lol! Well said Gordon -what a load of codswallop! I'll get back into Biology and will extinguish the nastiest of viruses....

Re: Corrie's Bill Roach believes in Reincarnation!
Humans, common with all other life forms, exist because there's the right amount of light, gases, and chemicals on this little planet, which therefore means life is sustainable here.
At the end of that life cycle all engery is eventually distinguished.
That's how I see it.
Though I do understand human nature, which comforts itself that there is something more, be it a religious afterlife, reincarnation, or seventy comely virgins, waiting to greet the faithful in some heavenly paradise.
Man's sought comfort that there's life after death, in every civilisation, ever since he's had time to think of things other than basic survival.
There's obviously a great need.
Rightly, or wrongly, it isn't a need I share.
Just my thoughts.

I have no time for religion.
I came to believe in 'life after death' after reading research into out of body experience.
Robert A Monroe wrote three books about the decades of research he did.
They are free on Scribd.

Re: Corrie's Bill Roach believes in Reincarnation!
Actually G, life exists here against the odds -it's a battle and from our first breathe we are destined to die because the oxygen which is necessary for all of our cells functions is the most poisonous thing for our bodies. Water is the unique thing on earth which allows life to exist.
That's why anti-oxidants are seen as such a great discovery but they only post-pone the inevitable...
So: we are born, we live and hopefully replicate to prolong the chain of life and then we die. End of story......unless you think the individual elements which our bodies return to somehow miraculously all end up in the same organism at the end of the food chain -a passing worm or such....
