Imagine the suicide rates

Maybe people would enjoy their life more knowing that they'd always have an afterlife safety net and the suicide rates would balance out

This lS the afterlife.

Why would it be better? Why does it matter? Was it bad before you were born? It's gonna feel the same after you die... or not feel to be more precise.
Your life is all you got and it's up to you what you gonna do with it. Spend it wisely.

>Your life is all you got

So tell me how the fuck would it make your life better? The fact that your life is all you've got makes it so vulnerable and precious. If you knew there is a nice afterlife why would you give a fuck?

Depends a lot on the kind of afterlife we are talking about i'd be golden with being able to float wherever i wanted through space but it could also something completely unique and unimaginable on a different plane

Imagine still being worried about the afterlife.

I always hated Timmy's boomer parents.
Jaxson Barnes
i'm not worried i'm fairly confident it doesn't exist which is why this thread exists
Adam Powell
What if i told you you can die and actually do all that stuff?
Memes aside, i'd really suggest you to look up DMT my firend. Do some research beforehand and try it if you will.
Logan Flores
It's nothing. You are just the chemicals in your brain. Everything ends for you when biological death happens.

>The time in between will pass instantly
I read this back and realise how dumb it looks. Specifically I meant the time in between will be like an instant because nonexistent don't perceive time

this is the feel i wish for

>>Is nonexistence anything to be afraid of?
My one and only salvia trip was a quintessential perception of nonexistence. I mean i smoked it and then virtually ceased to exist. Blackness, emptiness, zero thoughts, not even a sensation or perception of my lack of sight, thought, or any other sensory input, the passage of time ceased to exist or have relevance to me. No idea how long that bit lasted, but suddenly my friend is shouting my name and I begin to hear it, my mind slowly beginning to create vague, cartoonish contexts for what I hear, faint at first until it crescendos to
>"user! user!!! WHAT THE FUCK DID YOU DO!?!?"
meanwhile objects in the room begin to gradually spill out of my head and onto the walls, cartoon cuckoo clocks with hands spinning backwards and upside-down whirl around until it lands on the wall where the actual clock was. My friends head, detached from body, spinning round as he spews verbal gibberish, backwards sentences, random numbers etc., that finally morphs into the above quoted whilst his head lands back on his body and its spinning slows and stops until all is as it actually was before I smoked that shit.
Point being I was hardcore into existentialism and the concept of infinite consciousness extending to a spiritual plane after physical death. Nonexistence was probably my literal biggest fear and I didn't know it because I had never even entertained its potential as a truth.
Salvia showed me my greatest fear, and it was to no longer exist.
Descarte's "I think, therefore I am" was inverted and its inverse was demonstrated to my mind. Fucking horrifying to be quite honest.

I don't know if desiring an afterlife is the answer. I used to have thoughts even as a child that living forever was just as scary or maybe undesirable as dying. I'm not explaining that in too much detail I know. To each their own though, I would really just want people to be happy and be able to go peacefully at the end of their lives.
Christian Scott
Things would be fucking atrocious. We would waste our mortal lives in full knowledge that we get eternal life afterwards. Nothing would mean anything, unless it was to "qualify" for this afterlife in some sense, which would drive competition and strife to unimaginable heights as the "righteous" protect their hereafter and the "damned" sin their hearts out seeing as they've already missed their chance at Heaven. Nobody would give a single goddamn shit about preservation or conservation of the planet because we get to go party forever after we die.
I mean shit, most people would just kill themselves to get there quicker, because why go through all the pain and labour of survival when you can live forever after you stick your head in a noose? What would the benefit of "living forever" after dying anyway? What would you do with eternity? Can you imagine how boring it would be to remain in one state for ten years with nothing ever changing, never mind ETERNITY? What is bliss without sorrow, anyway? You can't have such a state without its opposite to compare it to, it would just be a sort of mundane endless decrepitude. I can't imagine anything worse, I would take nonexistence over it.
People who think any of this sounds good haven't really thought about it AT ALL.
