The idea of eternal nothingness is so incomprehensible.I'm not sure it's any less incomprehensible than eternal consciousness. We've at least all been nothing before.
The more I think about it the more my head hurts.
Its the ultimate fomo. Think of all the infinite shit you miss out on by not existing.That.
The problem with an afterlife is that it makes life here on Earth meaningless. You're telling me there is a perfect paradise outside of this reality? Why can't I just start there from the beginning? Why put a carrot in front of me?

Why would you be granted the ultimate reward without having the trials and tribulations of earning it first?
What trials and tribulations? lol
The opposite bothers me personally. I'm fucking tired and in pain man. I haven't even lived that long and I'm just so done with all this bs. Much like some people have to believe death isn't the end just to get through their lives, I have to believe that death is the end because I'd go insane otherwise. (Note to mods, not suicidal)If my life was infinite I probably would hate life after the third life but if it wasn't I'd be devastated that I'd miss out on generations of technology gains like what if in 120 years there was some super immersive game or piece of technology like idfk vr world that makes things so good
To me death is like a well deserved nap after a long day at work fam. I don't wanna suffer anymore.

You only think you do because what you miss is possibility. But even that is limited within one human lifespan and limited further by your circumstances. There's a lot of good games presently, you're never gonna play them all. It's pointless thinking about games that come out way after your lifespan if you can't even handle the ones within it. Besides the world could get fucked after you die and then you'd be glad you weren't there for that but you're dead so you can't feel anything about it. Heck the world is fucked as we speak.

I keep thinking somewhere down the line like 15 years its possible there's could be a worldwide war or something or someone sets a nuclear bomb off or something letting out a terrible era of the world. Due to stuff like putin and what's happening with wars now. Also true I should be content with what's what now and not the future

But people are too terrified by AI even though it's clearly more horny than it's murder-y so I think it won't happen for a very long time and I don't trust people not to destroy themselves way before that point. World peace could be achieved with sex bots but nooo let's invent the super death laser instead amiright lmao eyy
What's truly scary is the fact that when you die you go back to your beginning and live it all over again.That's basically my life rn
But, you have no memories of any of it, but you may experience brief glimpses via deja vu.
Your life is just a never ending cycle where everything occurs the same way every single time.

I'm not scared by death because I do believe in an afterlife.
With no memory, how is that any different from permanent death?
I'm not sure it's any less incomprehensible than eternal consciousness. We've at least all been nothing before.But our prior experience as nothing came before we lived our life. Going from life as we know it now back to non-existence isnt really comprehensible to me tbh.

I know it will happen, but its hard for me to grasp what non-existence is.
Thats because youre thinking in contradictions by trying to think about what it is . It isnt.Yeah i understand that, but it doesnt make it easier to comprehend.
