Peter said: Buddhism, like Christianity and Islam, promises life after death; realising the lie in that is one of the biggest steps to freedom you can take.
dmb says: I know for a fact that there is life after death. Or at least there has been plenty in the past. I don't mean to say that dead people come back to life. That's never happened, but life in general just keeps going. Despite all the many deaths every day, there are enough births and hatches to keep up. That should be enough re-incarnaton for anyone. Maybe life after death also means life after the ego or little self is seen as such. I mean, literal interpretations of life after death doctrines can't be taken seriously, of course, but try looking at the idea in more abstract terms and then its not so silly. It seems the literal versions are just very bad interpretations of good ideas. _________________________________________________________________ Climb to the top of the charts!
