Is death like the time before we are born?

I rather see it that after we die our consciousness drifts into a new body

when we die we're immediately reborn as something else and don't remember any of it but we still have the same consciousness

thus we don't remember who we were previously we just existed as other beings or things

it wouldn't make sense to have our existence destroyed because nothing in this universe is ever truly destroyed it is just transformed and I believe our consciousness would transform

Balls deep.

Thinking about death, a while ago I wondered what death actually is, besides the obvious biological perspective.

Could it be like before we were born? We did not exist before we were born, just like after we die. We have already experienced this (well, we didn't exist to experience it, but we have already NOT existed, if you know what I mean). Is death just the second time we don't exist?

What do you think?

we die, then theres nothing left of us other than a stiff carcass

Nowt wrong with being stiff.

They do say death = rebirth. If that is the case, and rebirth also equals birth, that would mean death is the same as birth.

Everyone else has...

We will never know because we have no recollection of before we were born. It's probably the most indescribable occurrence there is.

Apart from the popularity of George Lamb.

whoa man.

like i think you might be my brother from another mother, narg.

i had an epiphany like that a few thread's down/ a few days back.

I can't help having extremely profound thoughts. They just come to me sort of like daydreams.

It's not really an extremely profound thought. I think about the same subject quite a lot. It's not like an intense feeling or anything, it's just very frustrating.

Are you constantly questioning the existence of the things and people around you, as well?

Very funny narg. We all really believe you're so wrapped up in yourself.

Wouldn't be surprised, he's always been an arrogant prat.

Yeah but I doubt it extends to the level of "omg nervana r da best!!!!!!1" style n00bism.

To be honest, I probably prefer n00bism to complete faggotry. At least some people grow out of the n00b stage. He's always been a tosser.

And likely always will be
