what do you all think happens when you die?

Personally i believe that it’s just like not being born again.

Our souls are eternal, whereas our physical body is trapped within a space of time called "a life on earth". What this means is, our soul does not die nor can it die but our body eventually ceases to function. When that happens, our soul leaves our body and continues it's existence in eternity until called upon to experience another life in another time on earth.

Excellent description! I have always believed what you are describing here and I also somehow know that Jesus himself knew this when he walked this world, as did Buddha reveal in his ancient teachings which he described when he walked this world.

@hollyyoung
Why would you hope that what I said isn't true?

@swirlie i hope it’s not true because i take comfort in the belief that when you die, it’s just like not being born again. your soul going on forever sounds like meaningless torture.

@hollyyoung
But why would you assume that a soul going on forever is meaningless torture?
Why would you think that?

@swirlie it sounds like torture because what if u didn’t want ur soul to go on forever? so you’d just be going on and on without being able to stop it, that sounds horrible. forever is literally forever.

But what you're describing is what happens to us anyway!

As our soul hangs out in eternity, every once in a while it does stop. And every time it stops, that is called a 'lifetime'.

This means we hang out on earth in a body for it's lifetime, then we return and hang out in eternity until we decide we need to stop again. You can stop as often as you want to, or you can hang out in eternity for as long as you want to, it's always up to you.
