If The End Of Times Is Upon Us…

[naomi24]

… as we’re constantly being told here, what’s the problem? We’ll be dead, gone and, most importantly, oblivious, so why worry about it?

[weecalf]

Stopped watch listen or that ticking it to far ?

[retrocop]

I gave up worrying about death years ago.I've escaped it a few times but never worried too much. Worry is bad for your health. When I was younger I didn't want to be cremated because burning is painful!!!! :-)

We'd better get our white shifts laundered and ironed 'cos we won't get past those pearly gates without them.

[woofgang]

well I'd like to know so I can spend my savings on wild living and go murder a few people who've been on my list for a while but apart from that......

[jomifl]

Not a good idea Woofgang, your victims would get to heaven before you...

[Gromit]

You should worry if you want to get into heaven.

You have little time to repent your sins, toady up to the almighty, and generally get your boxes ticked for admittance.

That assumes you believe in heaven and want to go there. Judging by the people who claim to have a shoe in the Gates, it will be a very dull place.

otherwise, the end of the world is just something that is beyond your power to change, so you should stop worrying about it.

I'm not going to heaven. Scared of heights .

[dieseldick]

believe that if you like but i believe what is written in the bible. watch the link below. do you think this guy, and many many others like him are telling lies or suffering delusions ?

[naomi24]

dieseldick, each of those videos is almost 2 hours long. A short synopsis would be good.

[jomifl]

I think that they are suffering delusions due to trauma suffered by their brains. Brains are unreliable at the best of times but under extreme stress they are very unreliable..

@janbee

Hehee.

But who said it is up high, anyway. If all the meanies went away, it would be right here, where we are, with the people we like to be with, wouldn't it?

[dieseldick]

naomi ...theres one only a few minutes long.

https://youtu.be/S8j2g-IsBPQ

i do not believe for one minute these people are lying or deluded. a life changing expirience indeed.

[dieseldick]

jomifi then why do they all expirience the same things ?

[Hypognosis]

@dieseldick

What was wrong with all the near-death experiences of ordinary folk? Were they less believable?

Why does it always have to be a doctor or a policeman or some other category who few people would dare to question the credibilty of?


The bright light thing seems to be a common experience so, without watching the vid I know he's not lying about what he experienced yet I'm not willing to believe that this is proof of an afterlife. Since he came back to life, all we do know is that he didn't actually go all the way.

[naomi24]

I never understand why people who are convinced their God is going to exempt them from death are so afraid of ….death. Why is that?

[naomi24]

dieseldick, why do you think near death experiences involve religion, or moreover the God of the bible?

[jomifl]

Dd it is the way the brain works, that's why we all feel pain when we stick a pin in ourselves. Anyway a lot of people don't have these experiences, you are only showing 2 that are similar ( and agree with your preconceptions)

[paddywak]

I'm with retro on this back in the70's I recieved the last rites and they don't give them out unless you're knocking on the gates,after that when I eventually recovered it changed my whole life style,why worry about some thing you can't change.In regards to the light thing the only thing I can remember was the pain

[Old_Geezer]

We've evolved to be un-keen of death Naomi. Those in the past who didn't have this concern took greater risks and often went to meet their maker early. Leaving those who are wary with us today. It'll be the difference between what the conscious mind believes and what our more primaeval instincts do to us.

[wildwood]

Seeing there are about 150,000 people that die every day, it must be mayhem at the 'gates' to learn which way you are going - up or down.
