        I prefer New King James, KJV is solid but the language feels a little bit dated. NKJV flows better with modern vernacular without sacrificing the message.

      There are plenty of contrarians but a lot of us were raised that way.

Trying your best to emulate Christ is a good thing, even though it’s impossible.

    This may sound a little bit whacko but I sorta see things as how nothing necessarily fully goes away, in some way or part you or a part of you will be recycled and life will keep on living.
    I think coincidences too sorta convince me of a higher power, as well as the mere miraculous and glorious existence of mankind , it brings a warming tear to my eye to know there is in some way something that made us.
    Hope this helped as vague as it sounds anon, but either way, you’ll find your own way to come to terms with your mortality.

    >What makes you think yours has the right answer?
    What makes you think it matters?
    If you're an atheist, which would make two of us, you are accepting a universe in which you are invisible in scales of size, and never existed in scales of time.
    You can take this meaninglessness and become nihilistic, or you can embrace it as a freedom of belief.
    Stop caring if xyz religion is "true". You are a speck; to think it matters if your beliefs are "truthful" is vanity.

    If you are happier believing in life after death, it is only your clinging to a belief that you actually are important in the universe which keeps you from adopting some concepts of religiosity. And this idea of cosmological self-importance is just as unscientific as the religions you feel you're too good for.

    Jesus is king, go to an Orthodox church.

    >There have been thousands of religions among human history. What makes you think yours has the right answer?

    I'll give you three reasons why.

    First, the gods of those religions tremble at even the name of Jesus Christ. There are plenty of accounts of demonic manifestations even just in our modern times in which the demons have fled at the mention of His name. That kind of indicates that Jesus Christ is above all other spirits.

    Second, virtually all of the religious and mythological patterns and stories are contained within and find their fulfillment in Christian tradition. There's nothing you can find in any other religion that isn't accounted for in Christianity in one form or another.

    Third, the lives of the Saints through the witness of the Church throughout 2000 years of history attests to the Truth of Christianity through their wisdom, works of miracles and great feats of virtue. It's one thing to mentally analyze theological propositions, it's entirely another to meet a devoted, pious Christian who actually takes his faith seriously and feel that otherworldly sense of peace and holiness.

    Hi OP, I don't have all the answers but I do know some of what happens after.

    The point of all life is to evolve. All of humanity is actually just a different projection/aspect of God - meaning, we're all God. We've been turned into individuals in order to deal with certain issues and overcome them, which will allow us to evolve. It's kind of like machine learning and how neural networks operate; that's kind of how God operates.

    Your purpose in each individual life is to overcome your problems and achieve a state of happiness (which is an indication of your success). When you do that, you will evolve.

    If you don't, you will reincarnate and deal with the issues in a new life. That's what the cycle of karma is as the Buddhists and Hindus say. Don't fear because you will eventually break free of the cycle, but it's obviously better to do it now than later.

    One interesting aspect of reincarnation is there's no concept of past, present and future - they're all interconnected. It's like being on the sea of time; you look forward and see the future and look behind you and see the past, but events in the future and past create waves which affect the "present". Meaning, you can very well reincarnate in the past or future.

    One nice thing is that your loved ones are never truly gone - they're always there, forever.

    Focus on overcoming your issues in this life OP. That'll bring you peace and you'll naturally stop worrying about what comes after.

    The concepts of heaven and hell are real, but the entities which reside in them (God, Satan, angels, etc) are not real in a physical sense. Godliness being what you know in your heart of hearts to be good and just. Working in favor of Satan being the things you know are destructive to you and those around you. Angels and demons are concepts which can describe your thoughts and the people around you which push and pull you toward godliness or worshipping Satan. When you die, DMT is released in the brain and you enter a dream state which would theoretically last for eternity. If you die and are happy and satisfied with your life with no regrets, you will dream of heaven. Else, you will dream of hell. If you believe in the concept of a soul, that dream would eventually end when you are reborn in a new body.

        To a degree yes, that's what I've come to believe. To avoid this, you should live a full life and leave little regrets behind. Be satisfied in what you've done, in who you are, and when you pass to the other side you should experience your own heaven.

    I dealt with this last year. eventually I decided it's pointless to worry about it. the only thing to do is do as much as you can with the time you're given. life is cruelly short and that's all you get. maybe you get reincarnated. maybe your soul lives on. but you can't bet on it. I still get scared sometimes. but that fear serves as a reminder that I should make the most of the time I was given, whether it's 30 years or 90

    Dying fricking sucks, but there’s no real way to go around it. You will probably suffer a lot after death. Most of us will, and it’s a brutal process.

    Want some serious advice from the people who know what it’s like? Don’t believe the first counterfeit Buddha/Jesus/Allah/Vishnu/dead relative/Light Source that you see. Demons are insanely powerful, know how to frick with you, and will try to convince you that they’re God. They’ll tell you stupid shit that seems profound at the time, because you’re not used to being so transcendent, but, again, it’s all to frick with you. They’re greater demons trying to get into your head and have you worship them and believe their bullshit. Most of them are just pissed off, interdimensional fedora-gays like the lesser ones you see here on Earth (and on this thread).

    You will eventually know and see God, but you have to suffer first. It is what it is.

    Think about it
    Why would something happen?
    There's literally no reason anything would happen.
    It's also quite convenient that the dead cannot speak.
    Death is inevitable, you cannot run from it, you cannot cope with it. The only reason you fear death is because you're alive. And because you're alive, you're the exception. You cannot observe without the observer. It is simply nothing, something that we as living creatures cannot comprehend.

    OP head on over to IST, read some of the threads on consciousness, realize the folly of physicalism and the complete inability of materialists to account for consciousness, realize that consciousness is likely fundamental, then have a good laugh all the anons in this thread saying death is nothing, that it's meaningless to ponder, that your feelings on the matter are foolish and they reached the obvious truth ages ago that it is merely the cessation of biological processes... well, realize they might not even be living conscious beings themselves
