$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', 'I')magine a dying planet in some distant corner of the universe. Its natural resources exhausted. Its inhabitants sterile. Doomed to extinction. A situation we may one day find ourselves in, gentlemen.
? So what ?
Even atheists say "we got to the Moon" or "we will colonize space in the future". (mos6507, I don't know what you believe - here I talk in general).
Why do they say that ? What's with the above quote ? Are they not just one body, that soon will be dead forever? That's what they try to believe, but what they say betrays them. We know - deep down, who we are. We are the Universe, manifesting itself. The ocean and the waves - we are the waves, and the ocean, "waves die", that's all some see. (All they want to see - as a reaction to the religion of death , punishment and reward, forced upon them for so long. Dead forever is better than all that madness. It's a form of freedom.) Unconsciously - we know we are also the ocean. Everything is us. What else could it be ? We are not "special" and "separated".
I don't say this because "I hope" there is something after death, as atheists like to say. I hope nothing. I don't know what's after death. This is what I feel now - and this is what I say. Yes - I needed lots of books and stuff to say this - for free people this is common knowledge.

This is being a real person."
