Before your first taste of ice cream you had none. Now that ice cream is permabanned and you’ll never have it again why you so upset?

[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 11 points 5 days ago

But you won't be aware of the ice cream stopping. Only that it's going to stop. But you won't experience that stoppage. You'll never lack for ice cream. You'll only ever experience ice cream.

Completely different situation. You'd still remember that ice cream existed and therefore miss it. When you die your ability to remember will be gone.

And that is what is scary. The oblivion

[–] Azrael@reddthat.com 3 points 5 days ago

But you won't be conscious to experience it. You won’t be aware of it when it happens, so why are you afraid?

[–] WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today 1 points 5 days ago (1 children)

I don't see why we are so special, that we actually permadie. If nothing is permanent, neither is death.

I believe we just get recycled into whatever creature comes next, so does the universe.

Except I'm not a buddist, so I think it is forever. And that we have been around and experienced forever already, and that most of our lives will be grueling, as you need many creatures to suffer and die to maintain a happy few.

Interesting. I personally don't believe in reincarnation, but I really like the concept. It would be super cool if it was proven to be true.

[–] WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today 2 points 5 days ago (1 children)

What is cool about having no memories carried over, and living most often as an almost mindless, low-tier creature that starves and is eaten?

[–] Azrael@reddthat.com 2 points 5 days ago (1 children)

It's cool because reincarnation turning out to be true would mean that humans are more than just bags of meat being controlled by electrical signals via the central nervous system. If you die and part of you reappears as another being, clearly something about a person can exist beyond the physical brain. That would be a HUGE paradigm shift.

Also a lot of people who believe in reincarnation believe that good karma vs bad karma affects what you come back as. That would give life meaning and give people an incentive to be good.

Or the person is just a specific collection of specific particles.

[–] chunes@lemmy.world 1 points 5 days ago

that actually happened to me irl and i'm not upset
