Re: Scared of death
[ QUOTE ]
So I hold hope that existence/consciousness isn't over at death, and if it is... well damn.

Yeah, I hold the same hope. Obviously our knowledge of the very thing of existence and the universe is probably laughable compared to what the Truth of it is. So I have some small glimmer of hope that death is not the end of me.
But the very nature of who I am, must be dramatically changed if this persistence does indeed exist. My self and my identity and all my thoughts and beliefs and what makes me me, is so tied up by the measure of time, that to lose the concept of time, would so drastically alter me that even if I do persist im still changed so much im not me, so im not actually persisting (not sure that makes sense). Because it is absolutely impossible for our human mind to comprehend infinity, and thats exactly how long I want to go on for. So something has to give.
