you have your DNA so why is a clone of you not you, they cloned a sheep it was a diffrent hseep that was biolicaly the same, but it is not the same sheep, the diffrence is its spirit. I never belived this stuff but am starting to accept it.
Your body and spirit are seperated at death and your body is no longer part of you, you will no longer be physicaly there. I belive this because of accounts of near death experinces, in some that hwere in the news people when they floated to the celling reported certain objects eg coins on a cabnit that could not have been seen from the floor but when they woke up the objects they could not have seen from where they were, where actuly there!
No one wants to punish your spirit and so you are only in a hell like place till you can accept other people. It is not a place of fire, it is a place where you experince hate untill you can experince love. I cant go on as any further then this would be only what i think and not what i have some reason to think.
It sounds hard to bleive and i do not belive it 100% but as i read on my beleif starts to swing in that direction, maybe there is a spirit why else can a body that is complety identicle biologicaly still be a diffrent person and why can a bunch of cells which are nothing, have emoticans what ever that is (although biological computers could show otherwise once more work is done on them i think they could be the make or break point)
i can not fix a percentage on to how storngly i belive this, it is just an ever strengnthening feeling, sure it could be a scape goat for me but i work on facts i belive in sceince not evolution and once there is proof i belive, like witht he coins mentioned earlyer.
Its hard to comprehend but now think of all the colours, try and think of a new colour that does not exist, that is like comprehending life after death.
there are explenations for near death experinces which is why im not completly convinced but the evidence is substantial so rather then beliving in nothing and having uncertanty maybe there is somthing, now i am the other way around i belive in it but have a doubt in my mind that maybe it does not exist.
anything we feel through are body is felt by the mind so to rest my fears (and yours tommy) about the absence of a physicla body, those same feelings can be found because the physical body is a triger of them, they could be trigered still in a purer version.
i remain hopefull yet sceptical.
