I think that we need religion here.
No, I don't mean this corrupted book-cult that religion has become. I mean real religion. The kind where we have an expert who goes and sees gods, heavens, afterlife stuff etc using special technology like mushrooms and meditation; and then tells us about it, and helps us deal with it.
We could really use that so we can handle death better.
- Broken_Hippo 10y agoI disagree. I'm perfectly ok with death being final. No afterlife. No amount of hallucinogens have hinted at such a thing, and neither has meditation. You have to have the belief first for that to happen. You might feel better with it, but I'm good. And I'd rather not force these sorts of things on others.
- swayvil 10y agoGreat, but what about the other 99.999%? And what about the mysteries of the afterlife? Aren't you even curious?
