if there is no afterlife, then how come we exist?

Its been speculated our consciousness or essence or whatever is funneled into our mind from a collective stream. When we die, it returns to that stream until it flows again into the next life form to repeat the cycle, a little more enriched from the previous experience. Think of our bodies like a chrysalis that breaks open when we die, that essence emerging at its next stage of evolution.

Let me share a little something that may spook some of yall a little but i know im not alone.

I have memories from before i was born still in the womb. Both waking memories of being in there, and memories of dreams. Very vague flickers but i knew enough to dwell on them in my mind enough to keep them with me to this day.

Now if we have not all done this before at some point, let me just ask yall, how does one dream of something without having first witnessed it? How does one dream of a world that they have never even seen?

You mind sharing some of those memories?

Following up, a logical possibility is that our memories are stored somewhere in our genes, and as we pass down those genes those memories on some level are passed down as well. I could have been dreaming of some shyt my parents/grandparents/great grandparents etc experienced. Which would explain the natural inclination to reproduce, particular after a dangerous experience.

Reproduction could lowkey be a form of "immortality".

But they say energy can be neither created nor destroyed, only transferred, so on some microcosmic level it would seem we are never ever going to ever truly "die" completely. Not sure how i feel about that. It sounds cool cheating death and all, but on some level i really would prefer for all this shyt to truly be over some day. But i guess its natural to fear death. Its really the unknown about death that really scares us the most i think.

If we knew from rip it would all be good when it was over, i dont think folks would really be that bothered by it.

Just bits and pieces of things mostly. I remember traffic lights that definitely had not existed in that form for a long time before i was ever born.

I remembered old fashioned street lights that were lit and extinguished manually by a breh with a long pole :dame:

i remember sensations from the womb as well. I knew my mom was putting away dem vanilla milk shakes on damn near a daily basis. I remember i could "taste" them somehow, but not in the traditional sense. But i knew them the first time i ever tasted one, and scared the shyt out my mom when i told her this shyt as a baby. She played it off to my face but it was later i learned from relatives how shook she was :mjlol:

I remember places i had never been to in my life to the point i was able to tell her this restaurant used to be a gas station with complete unnerving accuracy.

One point in time you came to be. But, as far as we know, time is linear, ever moving forward. But, time supposedly has always been ticking, forever, time stretches to the past, never ending. But wait, that’s a paradox. The present (right now) is the end of something that never had a beginning. How can that be? So, how at a point in time did we come to be?

Binary states. Existence. Non existence. One cannot be without the other state existing. So, you’ve not existed forever. But now you do. But, supposedly you will be going back to not existing, forever. If you have one state existing forever, that cancels the binary aspect of things, it’s all a paradox.

What more than likely happens is things are cyclical. Time restarts.

Or this is all a simulation.

A bunch of rocks exploded trillions of years ago. Particles flying everywhere. Rocks kept colliding for a trillion more years. Eventually those rocks kept colliding to form Earth. More collisions on this planet finally produced the correct combination of molecules to come together. Those molecules formed cells, which formed into animals which formed into our ancestors which we came from.

A trillion years later: we're the Universe observing itself with human senses it's formed (which are just chemical reactions that involve atoms).
Think of it like a brain with nerves branching out. Whatever we create/do is part of the Big Bang and the expansion.

So now we're creating A.I's to think and maybe one day to merge with.
Maybe we'll get a general intelligence A.I one day - all a part of the Universe's consciousness, created by the Universe (us) and contributing more to it's expansion. The A.I would just be the next phase of the Universe observing itself. Maybe it'll give us a peak one day into how we came to be.

Possibly we'll all merge into this Super A.I who'll come up with a solution off this planet to do battles and join with other civilization A.I's who have done the same - all as the Universe :merchant:

Ok that last part went on a tangent, but so far this is how I view it and where we're heading :russ:

Afterlife to me is eternal peace, the same peace we had before we were born because all our observation and perception functionalities for this body are gone. Be vary grateful for those who you have in this life as most of us only have 60-80 years to truly enjoy it. I say this as a religious person and STEM major.

How? The second law of thermodynamics more or less observes that, in a closed system, matter/energy moves from order to disorder. We see this concept when observing the development of Life on Earth. Even if you completely discredit science and place your faith in religious cosmology, this concept of simplicity to complexity is still present.

Vanilla milk shakes? Are you talking about your mom’s titties? :dahell:
