Do you believe in afterlife?
In my opinion, afterlife is an idea we, humans, created just to make ourselves feel better after a close one of ours dies. To make ourselves feel like we never lost them and they are at peace.
@Rounaknayak true.
Just to remind us that even if we kill ourselves, we won't be able to escape the existence.
@_lunawinters and to scare the shit out of our siblings.
@ankur ahh. I remember how i used to scare my friends that I'll come to their room to visit them after i die😂
@_lunawinters
And i used to scare my friend by telling her that there is someone under her bed.
@ankur you evil 😈
@_lunawinters I believe afterlife as much as I don't believe. But that's not stopping me from committing any sins!
Maybe I should learn more before I comment on this.
@_lunawinters True

Beforelife, afterlife. It's all the same. Time is an illusion. So say the sages. So say the physicists.
Within the confines of the illusion, some might say we decided all the parameters of our incarnation before we were born. We chose our parents. We chose our DNA, etc.
Perhaps once you see enough beautiful inexplicable awe inspiring things, you'll realize that there is far more going on than you can imagine.
Then again... maybe not.
@_lunawinters Absolutely. I don't think there is empirical evidence for it, but it is mentioned in the Bible and it's the most reliable and corroborated selection of writings currently in existence (see this video from former Atheist and cold case investigator J Warner Walace: https://youtu.be/F6R29xwgENQ)
@_lunawinters And also to scare people from committing acts that the society considers to be a sin.
