Maybe consider "beginning" in plural.

Don't feel alone Buddahaid, I can't listen to it either - heard it too many times.

The most beautiful voiced woman in the world wouldn't help and as for bagpipes, can't bagpipes be tuned?? ..... I doubt that would help. : )

Check out this bag pipe player. Flame shooting pipes playing AC/DC.

I have a rough time with it myself. Too many fire fighter and police officer funerals.

Thanks Steve to getting back to what we think ...

I think there is a check in desk and you get to find out where you can be used in the battle for what we think.

the bible says that for each one of us there is an appointed time to die and then comes the judgement, but what if it is an untimed event, a wreck, a drunk driver, a plane accident, stray bullets, etc?

God gave the Hebrew children a promise that in that day (meaning the days ahead promise of peace) that they would have no former memory of they were. I don't believe in reincarnation, but I do believe in Gods mercy.

Todays Israel may very well be full of people (the ones in WWII come to mind) that have no former memory of they were, but live a life waiting for the promised one, their messiah.

I like Pistachio and Rocky Road together at the same time so I can go from one taste to the other ...

Something we're forgetting about in all this: ZOMBIES... what about them?

Minty ice cream is nice, too.

I never thought about that one. That would be pretty rough.

I agree with you. I have been involved with health care settings and have seen some things that I didn't even try to explain. I simply accepted it.

As far as reincarnation, I just know I don't want to come back as one of Eichhörnchen's squirrels in his pictures.

If the Bible is correct in that, then the time is appointed anyway. Somebody forgot to tell you, is all.

If, on the other hand, there is no one doing the appointing, then everything is random and it probably doesn't matter anyway.

What happens when I die? I have no idea, and I don't think anyone else does either. But then I'm not sure of what I know, so somebody may know something I don't. Well, lots of people know stuff I don't, but we're just talking about this one thing, and I've seen no real evidence so far.

It's probably best you don't know: I've heard a little knowledge is a dangerous thing, but I don't know about that...

What happens to a candle flame when you blow it out? The flame does not "go anywhere", it just ceases to exist.

I think the same would apply to us.

Life is a continuing process, not a state of being. When that process is stopped, the entity ceases to exist. Only the physical form remains and even that goes away of we let nature take its course.

At least that's my opinion on the matter.

Let say you are unlucky in a car accident and die and are dead for about 10 minutes then relived by the paramedics

After this "even" you tell people what you saw, when dead

Here are my question

Who will believe you and who will not ?

I know it depends on what you saw
Seeing a bright light, not seeing a bright light a.s.o

How do you define human death? That question should surely be as complicated as defining human life which ranges from conception to birth depending on one's views.
