I kind of like the idea of reincarnation.

Nothing. There is no soul. Free will doesn't exist. Brains are biological machines which act in nuanced and complex ways which might seem "free" at first but which nevertheless behave in total subordination to the laws of physics, rather than in a self-driven manner. Even if the laws of physics are random rather than deterministic, the brain is still in total subordination to those laws of physics. The brain behaves differently upon receiving damage, for instance. Those with severe brain damage act differently than they otherwise would, and if your brain damage is severe enough you live as a vegetable without even the illusion of "autonomous decision making" (i.e. "free will") that brains normally display. There is no immortal soul to hold accountable for earthly actions. Humans brains are held accountable for their actions by other human brains in flawed ad-hoc social systems while they are still "alive." When the brain is totally dead the person is gone forever. No essence remains, just the matter which once was the brain.
This truth has been obvious to people since ancient times when one could observe the consequences of brain damage, and has only been vindicated as our understanding of biology, chemistry, and physics further developed; However, people are very hesitant to accept it because the implications are unpleasant. To better "control" the masses religious systems have been erected by the ruling classes which propose not only free will, but souls, and eternal punishment/reward systems based on compliance to doctrines.
Can I live an amoral life and still get into heaven?
>>750283Yes. God takes bribes but so does the devil. You might have a good time in either place. It really depends.
>>750283Heaven isn't real.
does she has breasts or water balloons? jfc
>>750252>I kind of like the idea of reincarnation.This is probably the hardest concept of Buddhism to accept, and some predominantly western Buddhists even reject this concept while accepting pretty much every other principle.
>>750281True and materialist.
>>750315>>750319Not an argument
>>750320>samefagging this obviouslyBTFO never to recover
>>750252Nobody really knows, tbh.
I can't even say with re-assurance that it is nothing.
For all I know, Heaven itself and union with God could be nothing: nothing is infinite, boundless, undefined–these words could be euphemisms for nothing.
Of course Christians say that it is either eternal hellfire, or esoterics that the fires of hell is just allegory for reincarnation and going back to this world, or second death is what atheists say–nothing.
We get the faint idea of nothing from being unconscious or asleep, but I cannot say for sure that is what death is like. We don't experience nothing.
I think reincarnation would be appealing to transhumanists.
They were born into the wrong body, but reincarnation also gives them the hope they could be reborn as a woman.
>>750329I was born in the wrong body. I should've been born in Chad's body and had a harem of 7\10 women.
>>750319Shouldn't you be busy lobbying the government to force women to give birth to fetuses with Anencephaly
there’s been cases of it happening iirc
>>750254ragebait
Attend your own funeral. Pretend you are already dead seeing your family members go about their day and you are simply an omniscient presence. Experience Death by LARPing as being already dead.

>>750349They go to Heaven after death, everyone does
>>750315hes not even saying anything controversial. most religious people dont actually believe in god, they just hope hes real
The people that loved you become sad
>>750309Yeah, Buddhists say they don't believe in reincarnation but what they're really saying is that your sense of individuality, 'that I am this', doesn't persist.
>>750445oh yeah well i had a psychedelic trip too and god told me she was fake and gay
>>750442I don't know why they would.
It is more likely everyone is going to Hell than getting to Heaven, if their God is real.
