humans will probs die by either an asteroid or by a rival space species

Nah, we'll do what the Krogans did long before then

Heaven is where God and the Angel's reside, it is not for us. Neither is Hell. When Jesus was on the cross the two criminals with him confessed to him and Jesus said "we will go to Paradise", my understanding of the text and the original Hebrew is that heaven and paradise are different words with different meanings.

Thus, when we die no matter what we do in life - paradise awaits

Or

Reincarnation

Or

The Void

Its your choice

anything but the void.

Reincarnation like NG+ would be cool ngl

I wonder what the Jews meant by their version of Sheol then. Doesn’t it translate to “the grave”?

I havent checked

Sounds kinda similar to the Greek version of the river Styx and the underworld

being religious, all I am certain of truly is that death is not the absolute final stop

Its something I need to look into because if I am wrong in my interpretation of the words, then my view is going to change when corrected

@Ju$T b0Rg1Ka I certainly hope it’s not

I am fairly confident this is not my first time walking Terra and it will not be my last.

I wonder where all the animals, or all previous life on earth have gone post-death

Like, yknow pets and what not

That's where Buddhism comes in

question is, what is our consciousness? Is it a soul? A unique set of neural pathways?

Unsure

@nate112332 that’s why I lean on reincarnation a little bit, because that matter has to go somewhere. It’s not destroyed

No definitive answer has been agreed upon yet

For as long as our little blue ball has been spinning around the sun, death can not be the end

@KenneticEnergy But then why don't we keep memories through death?

Life.. uh, finds a way

Lol

Existence is just too interesting

@nate112332 new neural cells, new brain wouldn’t keep any of the old memories

Physiologically that would make sense

If we did have past lives, we would have no way of knowing or discovering it

Reminds me of Yrel's line in the Abhorsen trilogy; "I like sleeping...and I like fish. I like many other things as well and that is why I, Yrel, stand against you."

Right, live 20 times and you'll simply not give a damn. What if memories are unloaded onto a server that we can access only in death, then be reincarnated when ready?

well "server" is the best word for it

tbf we could be in a matrix

@nate112332 yeah you wouldn’t keep any of the old memories, and you wouldn’t be the wiser

idk

@nate112332 you are in the matrix

Hmmmmm
