^Just a thought, a bit offtopic. I just wanted to get your thoughts going.
Well clearly because thoughts have no mass they have nothing to be conserved :3 And science tends to extend it's reach to only the physical universe ._.
Anyway I think when we die everything just goes black, our brain stops functioning and we just stop existing(mentally). We just become a clump of atoms with no chemical reactions to show we're alive that will eventually go somewhere else, maybe even form part of another human =D Or become diamond or fossil fuels =D
When orchestral performance ends and musicians disband, what happens to it's music? Does it keep playing in some intangible realm? I think not.
Abstract representations of that music will remain in the heads of those who listened, until their own orchestras disband.
The musicians eventually get regrouped into another orchestra, to play another piece.
PS: pffft, just kidding. I think we go on to live in Mushroom Kingdom.

Anyway, depends on the way you die, you assume you die peacefully. If you drown, you don't just fall asleep, you panic until you get knocked out by oxygen deprivation.
I also think that some sort of eternal life ( heaven or anything related) would be the worst thing ever. Imagine the extreme boredom. I mean, seriously, life is great, but it's good it has an end. Eternal (after)life seems a curse to me.
That being said, I do fear death, I don't want to just don't exist anymore. ( Scientific believe won't kill your instincts).
The quote:You can't assume you we're dead before you we're even alive.I was alive so now I existed,and the period after my death would be my non existance.Ofcourse you can take it in a philosophical way:
Before I was born:Non Existance.
My life:Existance.
After my death:Non existance.
Death=non Existance=Before I was born.
The Eternal life thingy:Actually I'd like having an eternal life,just if it was kinda similar to this one.The eternal life conception in the christian relegion sounds boring to me because it just seems too dam perfect for my tastes.
Also,Science may have given us some valid facts and solid information about our body,and our environment.But just like we didn't know much stuff 200 years ago,and we considered some things "magic".We cannot assume that such discoveries won't happen again.Hence,we might discover some stuff that can change all of our beliefs.But,till now.Brain stops=We seize to exist.
We dont seize to exist. As our physical matter and body is still there. Our thoughts and functions simply stop. The fact is that when we die it just means our body stops functioning in every sense of the word. no brain activity, therefor no motor control or thoughts. We will simply be lumps of matter until the universe says we decompose, at which point we decompose and become part of what we started as. As onamist said on the first page. We are just electrical impulses essentially controlling a body. No electrical impulses, no anything.
The thought of reincarnation is simply just another way of the humans wanting to seem more than just specs of insignificance on one of the trillions of planets out there. Thats my opinion, im not trying to insult anyone but i think the same for all kinds of things simply trying to explain the unknown using a 'higher power' of some kind. Back to the thought of reincarnation, i personally think that it is nonsense and nothing happens after death.

Yeah, I only don't like erthtkv2 because of the mod's name. Make it "tkv2," and the mod will instantly become more popular. This is a valid reason as the name of the mod is still an important feature that no one seems to have yet discussed.
