After a recent death of a dear friend, a question struck in my head... What happens when we die?
I am sure that there are ALOT of different opinions and to be honest I believe it mostly comes down to what the individual believes.
We all hear ghost stories. In fact not only do we hear them but we also watch the millions of ghost TV shows (ok 'slight' exaggeration here). We have to wonder though... How much of these shows are real? How much is set up to attract ratings and viewers. Maybe we do become ghosts? Or maybe we only become ghosts if we have 'unfinished business'?
Different religions have different beliefs as to what happens when you die. Christians believe that we go to heaven. Buddhists believe in the rebirth of a person.
Scientific experiments have also been performed. They stop a persons heart , which 'kills' them ( I'm using the word kill for convenience rather than that being the correct word to use), and then they restart their heart. Most people mentioned a tunnel and a bright light. Due to a high amount of people having the same answer, there are still speculations that this ' bright light ' could simply be the light on the operating table.
So where do we go when we die? what happens to us? I find it hard to believe that when we die nothing happens and we simply just cease to exist!
What do you think? Comment below, all opinions are welcome.
