the meaning of death

quote:
Once upon a time, a disillusioned man set out in search of the meaning of death. But just as he reached the edge of his village, he met a comely woman from a neighboring town traveling in the opposite direction who was seeking the same thing. They began to talk and soon realized that they were totally hot for each other. One thing led to another, and you know how these things go. So death was defeated by sex, and they both lived happily ever after. Until they died.

I think there's a lesson there for all of us. Somewhere.

death is a divine curse set upon us and the rest of the world for disobeying God. God representing everlasting life and perfection. when one rebels against this, they then become the opposite of everlasting life and perfection, and therefore become unperfect and mortal. so they say in christianity.

i'd have to disagree here. I understand you're using it in a loose context, but death isn't a curse on us, it's a curse on those left, who have to pick up the pieces, the person who died isn't the one who's sinned/done wrong or whatever, but the person closest to them probably is, (or very close to them anyway) As an aethist tho, im still waiting for proof god exists

are u saying dead people never sinned? according to christianity or atheism? youll have to research proof of god yourself starting from an unbiased position to find that answer. like a good journalist.

I know people who died who'd done nothing wrong, were devoted to their families, friends, never lied, yet still died, while we're living in a society with no morals, rapists, murderers, religious fanatics, if everyone who'd sinned was wiped out and those who hadn't were left/brought back, there'd not be many people left. the fact that good ppl die & bad don't (young ie.) just goes into my 'there is no god' thinking

Death is life and life is death. It's that simple.

God is dead. He died 612 years ago in a skying accident. Tis the risk of extreme sportspeople unfortunately.

You blew holes in it like Swiss Cheese. BTW, when soldiers get blowed up with IEDs, then that's about f*cked as well.

Whatever starts must end someday in order to start all over. That simple.
