An incorporeal being from a realm of existence beyond human comprehension contacts you and makes you an offer. It wants to experience the physical word and can do so by taking over a human body.

It won't take control until after you die but if you accept the covenant, once you die it will possess your body and experience Earthly life through your physical shell.

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/4/7/1/AAZiH8AADRV_.jpg

In exchange you will recieve $120,000.

Would you accept?

Does possessing my body mean just like moving me around like a meat puppet? If I'm dead that means at the very least some important organs no longer work. What if I die in a way that mutilates or burns me beyond even being recognizable as human remains?

If it can't do that then sure, let it enter my broken oldass body and live in a nursing home having its ass wiped for a few years

120k ain't that much. Not where I live. I mean it can pull people out of debt, but not enough to buy a house. It ain't worth somebody desecrating my body and potentially making everyone else's (like family and friends) lives a living hell after.

$1,200 is about the going rate for donating your body to a university/science. They pay you now, stamp a tattoo somewhere on you, and collect when you die.

There's a scary theory that this could be what actually happens when people recover from certain types of brain damage/comas. That the original consciousness was lost, and the recovered brain simply produced a new one from the memories of the original person. They'd be indistinguishable from the original person, but the original person is long gone.

Anyway, money. I was already dead by then anyway so it's irrelevant to me what happens afterwards.

From what I've read the neural circuits producing your consciousness are simply in a low power state while you sleep. Hence why you can be woken up by trivial stimuli.

It's when you cannot be awoken that there's a risk your consciousness is just "off", and from there it's not clear whether the original can be turned "on" again or if it'll just be replaced.

Well when a person dies and gets revived they can still see and hear. So physically there seems to be no barrier.

Im asking the corporeal entity offering the deal if I have to watch and hear their bullshit forever or if I can get some rest?

Whatever happens after death will happen to you, same as everyone else.

Personally I believe that's oblivion.

But no one knows. This is the question which has formed pretty much every religion in history.

So even if I could offer proof about the existence of the afterlife youd still have to take the word of some extremely sketchy alien.

Man fuck that. Deal rejected!

Quite possible. Then again you could always tell your family about the deal so they would know it wasn't you. I know it sounds bad but they could also have passed before you too.
