| 9. There is a better paradox then that. |
|
If there is no eternal life, there is no reason to live.
Why would you build something just so it would disapear. From there was built the concepts of multigenerational existence since if a person does not carry on, they can have the concept of their existence being carried on in their children, and the paradox of possible lack of existence is removed. Many ways to see that, but part could be passing on ideals, part passing on values, and many other thoughts and ideas, and even ideas of spirit.
If at some point you wont exist, then all you do is building something for nothing, if you think at all about the individual. So there are thousands of thoughts that it is about the entirety over many generations.
Hence why I had to find that the supernatural exists. Once you know the supernatural exist, the possibility of what you have done in life may not be lost, and might carry on. Including concepts of resurrection.
However would the need to know you wont die someday be overcoming death, or would not dying.
There are so many doctrines out there. And so many label traps.
What is it to stand? To have under standing. See how many label traps there are.
So I am due beer and travel money, and many experiences. Although I am not asking for it, it is just due.
