If I don't believe in heaven or hell |
|
do I go to heaven or to hell or return to the earth?

I believe in reincarnation from insights I had from meditation but ultimately, no one knows so best not to worry about it.

3. I wouldn't worry either |
|
I too believe in reincarnation and have had a few memories. I do believe in the spiritual realm from my own experiences but I'd let the powers that be worry about it. Just live your life and have no regrets. :) That's my motto now in life. Don't worry and no regrets.

Just live your life the best you can.
I believe in Reincarnation strongly too... even if it's just that everything in this universe seems to recycle itself over and over, ad nauseum.
At one time, I was part of a really big star! We all were!

2. Speaking of heaven and hell. . . |
|
did you hear the one where both Bill Clinton and the Pope die the same day. Due to a snafu, Bill Clinton goes to Heaven and the Pope is sent to Hell.
After a few hours they correct the mix up and the two meet when Bill Clinton, on the down escalator, passes the Pope on the way up.
Bill Clinton tells the Pope he had a great time in Heaven and should love it there.
The Pope says, "I can't wait to get to Heaven. The first thing I've always wanted to do when I got to Heaven has been to meet the Virgin Mary."
Bill Clinton responds, looking a bit guilty, "Too late. What's the second thing you've wanted to do?"

I think we are born again. Just hope you don't come as a republican.

6. I rather enjoy the thought of being fertilizer |
|
seems productive and good for the earth
Don't mind being bug food either.
Cremate me and put me in somebody's mulch heap...then use me to feed the earth that way.
Or just let me be placed in the ground to decompose and feed the soil...and the bugs.

Mummified and then buried with all my posessions into a great tomb that can last for all time.
Or something lesser is still fine.

Any other belief is the brain playing tricks. It's hard-wired for survival, so it tends to err on the side of "I'm gonna live forever" (with or without the fame).
If I'm wrong, I'll send you a note after I'm dead. ;)

23. Belgium, according to Hitchhikers Guide |

On the other hand, Belgium is a pretty nice place with good food and great old buildings.
