Would you want to know ?

[syrenn]

If you could gain certain knowledge of the date of your death or how you would die.....

Would you want to know either?

​

No to both.

 

[uscitizen]

Where?

 

[uscitizen]

Just think if you knew you could have lots of fun sinning and just repent right before you die.

 

[Immanuel]

Just think if you knew you could have lots of fun sinning and just repent right before you die.

Yeah, until God pulled a fast one on you and pulled the plug 20 seconds before you repented.

[AVG-JOE]

If I saw a slow lingering death in my future I would shoot my self. Wouldn't care either way.

Isn't a slow lingering death what we all start the moment we're born?

Cancer/Alzheimer type slow death,

Well, you didn't mention pain.

 

[AVG-JOE]

Now you're thinking like Pascal! I LIKE it!!

Immie

Yeah she is kinda untrustworthy that way.

 

[Douger]

I already know how.
When would be nice; to be able to schedule up some reloading parties.

 

[uscitizen]

Well I know my end will be one of 2 ways.

 

[Sky Dancer]

Yes. I would want to know. One Buddhist practice is to rehearse for dying.

 

[AVG-JOE]

Well I know my end will be one of 2 ways.

That's not something that everyone can say. I can barely dig it - I can't imagine relating. Are you comforted, scared - what?

 

[AVG-JOE]

Yes. I would want to know. One Buddhist practice is to rehearse for dying.

The when or the how? I still can't decide which I'd choose if given the offer.

 

[dblack]

Ah... I missed the idea of choosing one. Guess I'd go with when, just so I wasn't constantly looking over my shoulder.

 

[uscitizen]

Well I know my end will be one of 2 ways.

That's not something that everyone can say. I can barely dig it - I can't imagine relating. Are you comforted, scared - what?

Resigned I guess is the best fitting term.
Scared no. although some try to frighten me with talk of burning in hell for all eternity.
I just laugh at them and offer them a beer.

 

[uscitizen]

Rehearse for dying? Like in a play or something?

I used to do good dying scenes when I played cowboys and indians.

You rock, 'citizen!

Both. I've practiced quite a few. One was being killed by a falling tree in a wind storm.

Seems kind of a mean way to get beer, but okay. In Hell, you will have just had six beers and the line for the bathroom goes on forever. Beer me!

 

[Sky Dancer]

I wonder about it. Contemplating death and dying is a daily Buddhist practice.

Which way will we go?

I've imagined many.

You have given out too much Reputation in the last 24 hours, try again later.

Bummer!
