You have no proof that it's simply nothingness when you die. If this universe has countless beginning points, what makes you consider a single ending point would exist anywhere?
- golover721 7y agoAbsolutely, and no proof that there isn’t. It certainly seems that the idea of an afterlife is appealing since in some ways it is easier to comprehend than “nothing”.
- jhayward 7y ago> You have no proof that it's simply nothingness when you die Do you mean to imply that you have proof to the contrary? Why is there any reason to assume anything else?
- sova 7y agoConservation of matter and energy states that energy cannot be created nor destroyed. So what makes some annihilationist version of reality palatable to a true scientist?
- jhayward 7y agoBy this logic, a building can't be created or destroyed. I suppose you argue that consciousness is a fundamental aspect of nature, independent of all other things, rather than some emergent property of matter and energy. If so, it is an extraordinary belief requiring extraordinary evidence.
