What happens after you die?

Wrong forum, go to General for this, this will get MOVED as soon as a Mod. notices it.

you will be put insidea coffin and buried into the ground or burned

Prior to the burial or burning, you may be cut open and prodded to find out why you snuffed it in the first place. Coroners also may laugh at unusual * as in size or shape* genetalia.

I think you see God and go to a second life

People, people. We must all realize that after you die, your body just shuts off and cannot be revived. Thx.

SPIRIT (not soul). ENERGY. TRAVEL IN THE COSMOS. I think there are plenty of possiblities. NO ANSWER GIVEN HERE IS THE TRUE ONE (Yes. I speak to the atheists, pure religious, and agnostics.)

There are enough threads about this pointless subject in General, don't let them overflow everywhere else too!

Your organs will be removed and given to other people, then you will be put in a wodden box and buried, or burned and put in a vase to sit on someone's mantle. Or possibly, people just lose track of where your body is until some average runner takes a brisk jog early in the morning through the woods and spots your hand sticking out from underneath a bush.

No seriously I Think you go to Heaven or... you know and you live their for awhile

And what, pray tell has lead you to this conclusion?

you get thrown in the ground and make a nice home for the Worm family.

well if your killed by some maniac you might just end up in a pie :D (I would personally like this way opposed to the other thing maniacs will do to a dead body)

personally I think after death there is nothing but if there is I will deal with it when I come to it

who cares? I'm not dead yet!

meh, you decompose slowly over a number of years, or you get cremated and scattered somwhere.

Heck, I don't know, and I'm not going to pertend I do.

Although it has made me wondered how two good people who hated eachother could exist together in heaven. Oh well, if anyone could dop it, it would be God.

Whats the point of this, we don't get anywhere we just end up flaming each other and insulting the religious types because we don't agree with their beliefs.

Occidio gets to play with you.

Well, if you're into cremation... then your body gets stuffed into a fire, Crackle, Crackle, Crackle... which can be a bit of a shock if you're not quite dead... but quick... then your relatives get a box of ashes that they can pretend are yours.

or, if you're into burial, they dig a large hole in the ground and put you in that where you're body is eaten by maggots and weavles... nibble, nibble, nibble, which as before, can be bit of a shock if you're not quite dead.

You right, you are worm food nothing more nothing less. I'm not sure what weavles(sic) are, but I suppose those would eat you also.

Don't forget there is a market for cadavers to be used in laboratories around the world, so depending on where you live you may get dug up and sent to one of those. There is a black market for such things.

As far as souls and such go...eh? form your own opinion. I hope mine haunts the hell out of all my enemies.

After you die everything that you were eventually becomes part of something else - part of a tree, soylent green, a rabits foot. All the matter that was you is recycled eventually, whether or not this process will ever give you another shot a conciousness I don't know...

You play the saxaphone in a all girl band in New Orleans.

Standard Operating Procedure is to lie down very still, and not move until someone comes to collect you.

What I like to think of death is:
"Gandalf: The grey rain-curtain of this world rolls back, and all change to silver glass...
[a light comes into Pippin's face, as a small smile comes into his eyes, as Gandalf looks out into the distance]
Gandalf: ...And then you see it.
Pippin: What? Gandalf?... See what?
Gandalf: White shores... and beyond. The far green country under a swift sunrise. " (Return of the King, movie not book)
But I am afraid that death is just an end. You cease to exsist, and everything goes black, and then you are gone. Kind of like when you pass out, no dreams or thought, just black.

You lie in the ground, your soul is "sleeping", until the next coming of Christ.

Then we can procede to the next planet laid out for us.

The question is: "What doesn't?"

who cares? I'm not dead yet!
That's basically my perspective on it.

I rather not think about death when I still have so much to live.

That's hot

Well, if ya in a good family, they'll throw a HUGE wake in your honor, everyone'll get REALLY drunk and talk about you, and then if I'm lucky, they'll then throw my corpse into the woods like my Will will tell them too, and if I'm SUPER lucky, then some random jogger will find it and I'll become part of a major national media investigation. And, if im REALLy REALLY AMAZINGLY LUCKY, then I'll be hanging around as a ghost to watch it all happen so I can laugh at all the idiots who thought I couldn't exist. Coursethat involves a lot of luck. you'll probably just get thrown into a 6 foot deep hole in a wooden box while some guy says some words over you and thats that.

You get made into Big Macs.

Assuming that all goes as planned, after I die, the photographers show up and take stunning yet amusing photos of my remains. :)

Yakaria dont Spam, in my Thread

everytime I die I start the same life over - but it goes differently everytime because I make different decisions. Frankly, I'm sick of it.

Hey dude, Ground hog day is in February...

So, Saint Peter is at his reception desk when an old man walks up.

St. Peter: May I help you?

Old Man: I'm looking for my son.

St. Peter: Can you describe him?

Old Man: He had nails in his hands and feet. He was dead and came to life.

St. Peter: Oh, my. Please wait here, sir.

So, St. Peter rushes upstairs to Jesus's office, and says "Boss, Boss, I'm not sure but I think your earthly father is downstairs!" Jesus hurries down and slowly approaches the old man...

Jesus: .....its been so long...Joseph?

Old Man: ...Pinnochio?

The question is: "What doesn't?"
Everything that happened before you died.

What happens after you die?

Are you worried? Of course, on a long enough time scale, everyone's odds of survival drop to zero.

Hey dude, Ground hog day is in February...

something like that except when i die i start back at birth

Ever seen Flatliners? I've had a similar experience but it was an accident.

I remember hearing a comforting voice but I have no idea what it was saying. I'm assuming it wasn't my time. I now believe that all religions are just an example of man's corruption. There are many similarities between the religions though so I think the main lessons about life and how to treat others are important.

Your brain decides how you act, your soul is an energy that allows your brain to act.

Classic joke...

Die?? That's the last thing i'm gonna do!

(Drum roll)

I think that with the (possible) exception of Jesus Christ, there is no denying that all dead bodies decompose and...uh, deflate. Even the Pope's body. Contrary to the latest Onion article, it doesn't transform into a butterfly and transcend our mortal world.

Of course, none of this applies to me. I'm never going to die. And the smartass who raises a dagger behind me is going to really get it.

You decompose, unless something either stops this process, like freezing or drying out or you are cremated.

I'll live for ever or die trying!

But if i were to die id have my body coated in arsenic then dumped in some towns water supply so the poison runs into the water then all the poor spas die!

But in doing so my body would be perfectly safe for a while.

i dont rightly know whats going to happen when i die... according to the bible if i live right im going to heaven and if i dont im going to hell.. but right now im not sure weather to embrace that whole Religion subject or not... kinda sounds like something i should do but i dont know... any suggestions? TG me if you wouldnt mind...

Habbakah - God created you ignorant on whether he exists or not so he can't exactly blame you for not knowing if you should believe in him or not. If you understand. ;)

-Nobody is perfect, that's why I beat the crap out of him and stole his shoes.

a necropheliac will find you and have his or her way with your corpse. your spirit will stare in shock and awe of such a tender and humbling moment. then you will go to hell for having had such a sexy temptuous corpse. :fluffle:

After the physical body fails your soul will be released and travel to the earth's core, where it will achieve full enlightenment. That is of course if your soul can avoid lava.

There's only one way to find out, and I'm certainly not ready for it.
In case you have airflow from one ear to the other via the shortest distance, the one way is to die.

I pee on your grave.
Make love to your sisters and wife.
Propagate the world.



P.S. what does propagate mean?

Like I said before I think you see everyone and Dont Spam In MY Thread

After your "death", you'll wake up in a holoroom (quite similar to the holodeck on the enterprise) and there's a guy next to you who'll ask whether you want to order a new vacation or is this enough for the time being. Then you'll exit the travelling agency and go on with your boring life on some higher plane of existence.
I saw this theory in Gavin Crawford show.

Better answer than some of them

I think, initially, I will go to be with Jesus. The Bible is not specific as to the nature of this state, only that it is bodiless, conscious, and much better than my current earthly existence, however good that might be when I die. Philippians 1:21-23 and 2 Corinthians 5:6-8 suggest this to me. :)

At the end of this age, I will be resurrected, together with everyone else who belongs to Jesus Christ. I will then live forever in the recreated physical universe with God and all others who belong to Him, enjoying His presence, worshipping Him, at peace. I don't know the details more than this, but I believe that, almost by definition, it'll be better than I can imagine now. A lot of the Bible talks about this, but I'll use Revelation, chapters 21 and 22. :D

I'm not sure of the details for those who don't belong to Jesus. I don't think it ends well for them. :(

Its over, thats all.

well, then what you said wasn't right because it was in that post, which you just called here. this post isn't in there. so then it is the true one, and i'm not telling! mwuhuhahahahahaha! actually, i have a possible answer, when one dies, they're body decomposes and that's it. nothing else. it's the most logical answer considering there is nothing but your body. mind spirit or soul doesn't exist.

EDIT: of course, the body doesn't exist either, but if existance is assumed, it's the only one of them that does.

What happens after you die?


I don't know. Heaven, maybe?

You cease to exist. End of story.

after u die people cry

What happens after you die?

your body will decompose..inless you get cremated of course...by the way...its a myth that your hair carries on growing

you decompose

After you die, all the cells in your body shut down because they can no longer recieve nourishment because your brain is not firing neurotransmitters anymore sending messages to "feed" cells... because you're dead. Then your body is useless... um.

Enough said.

There has been alot of mysteries about what happens to you if you go on to a second life

I honestly feel like there's some sorta afterlife, tho prly nobody alive truly knows its nature.

What happens after you die?

My kids will fight over my stuff.

You play the saxaphone in a all girl band in New Orleans.

So you beleive in heaven?

What happens after you die?

Well if (and only if) a "you" exists, it ceases to exist.

Since a "you" separate from the universe doesn't exist, your componemnts coninue in the natural cycle as they always have and always shall, world without end, ending and renewing every instant (as does your "you").

My life power will join to other beings life power, and maybe sometime I will come back but not "I" just my life power breathing in another body. Oh yes how can you make me sad ?

My life power will join to other beings life power


Cosmic orgy .... rock on.

My kids will fight over my stuff.

If you leave it all to me, then that problem would be solved in a flash. You have cool stuff, right?


I have no idea whatsoever happens after death, but I get the feeling that this life will feel utterly insignificant once it happens. Which is why I'm making the most of this opportunity not bothering with responsibility for as long as I can evade it. That's the proper way to go about things.

The Government trys to take all of your money and stuff
Wait, they try to do that while you are alive also ;)

If anyone wants to know why this question came up in my part is because its interesting to see different peoples belefs

To be honest, I don't die...

Now serious, I believe in a sort of reincarnation or something. I would fancy returning as a stone... ;)

I wont die either I'm perfectly fine.Yo
