What happens after death?
The word people have applied most to one theory is "reincarnation" although traditionally in my opinion it is a word with very stupid meanings. We live again right after we die? We have lived as old kings and queens on earth before? Both rather wishful thinking.
Infinite time, infinite space... Eventually our consciousnesses will exist again?
I think so and surely it favours a high level of probability. I've often thought about how consciousness could be from genetics but that theory goes out the window because we all came from the same single strand of bacteria that started life on earth and if that could happen on earth then it could happen anywhere in the infinity of space and time just as my mind could exist again. They wouldn't be linked in any way naturally but I would be "conscious" again. Perhaps? I would again be a living, thinking being.
What if we just die and that's it, nothing happens? Well like I said above time really is INFINITE. It won't ever just "end". Ever. Even if the universe(s) all came to nothing and for an eternity nothing existed, eventually it would come to be again. Something does come of nothing. The science of nothing hasn't been explored too much but I can assure you we have never seen "nothing". Everywhere on earth is saturated with atoms. Everywhere in our visible sight in the universe is so. And there's a natural constant that seems to affect everything - gravity. I think the gravity of "nothing" is very high. I don't know what happens inside a black hole and don't know if they have anything to do with "nothing". I don't know if nothing ever has or ever will exist because something does come from nothing. A theory I consider is such insane levels of gravity (from nothing... Confusing, right?) that massive numbers of atoms are created. Perhaps like a... Big bang! Well I think scientists are very stupid to make such assumptions about the beginning of the universe when we're still relatively primitive but it's certainly a plausible theory. Back on-topic, time is infinite, there will always be something. I think since space and time are so infinite it would be arrogant to assume earth was the first (or last) planet to host life. Very stupid indeed. We've only discovered a handful of planets outside our own solar system, which just happened to support life. If ours can and we're not even a damn grain of sand then I'm pretty sure there are billions, perhaps trillions of planets with life out there. Where are they? Theoretical maximum speed of light = hundreds of thousands of years even for signals to travel between galaxies. And science has certainly detected some seemingly artificial signals. (http://socyberty.com/paranormal/alien-signal-detected-near-gliese-581g/ & http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wow!_signal & http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_source_SHGb02%2B14a and probably plenty more where those came from, that is the infinity of space. Radio source SHGb02+14a for example: "There are a number of puzzling features of this candidate, which have led to a large amount of skepticism. The source is located between the constellations Pisces and Aries, a direction in which no stars are observed within 1000 light years.") Those are just the few that happened just to be travelling in the right direction to reach earth. (Think of the infinite numbers between 0 and 1. Use that thought with 3d directions in space. You have infinite possible directions for a signal to go to. What are the chances of an alien planet with no clue we exist yet sending a signal that just happens to reach earth? Infinitessimal. Back on topic. Infinite time, (possibly) infinite life, infinite space (heck maybe even infinite universes). Probability of existing again: Pretty damn high.
I would be very interested to see comments on my theories and get into a discussion.
