Death? Well, I am not sure what my exact beliefs are on death. I too believe in Paganism and that there are other workings at hand in somethings that happen to me and somethings that don't happen to me. I some what think that we are reincarnated to something else but I'm not sure if I believe that the reincarnation depends on how we lived our life before. Its said that if you lived an honest, fair, compassionate life than you will be reincarnated to something better than what you were. But if you lived a bad life, lieing, hurting and stealing than you will be reincarnated to something less than what you were. I do not believe that. I believe in "second" chances and no matter what you did or what you said throughout your previous life you get that "second" chance to do something different. Even if you were reincarnated to an animal like an eagle or bear or even a dog. All living creatures go through their own rough courses, hard times and good times.

I however do not believe in a God. I do not believe that there is one thing controlling EVERYTHING. Then when we die if he does not approve of how we lived or lives then our souls are banished forever to misery. I do not blieve that it was one person who told us how we should live our lives morally. I think the beginning people had just as much common sense then as the people do now. I mean did it take God to control the dinosaurs and tell them how to live their lives and if they killed then they went to hell? So does that mean that all carnivourus dinosaurs went to hell and all herbivore dinosaurs went to heaven? I look at death, murder and disease as population control, it may be wrong to kill but how would this world be if people did not die, we would be so over populated, over run with more disease and would have less and less money to take care of things.

I try not to think about things like "Why are we here?" "What is our purpose in life?" "Where are we headed?" Life is too short to think about things like that. Life can be cut short with no warning and no changing it. I believe in living your life to the fullest, however the fullest is, to each is own!

This is a very heavy conversation and people are going to get so rapped into their beliefes that they will get angry and carried away. Lets try to remeber people EriksShadow asked for OUR beliefs not which belief is right and which is wrong!! Take it easy everyone!
