What happens when you die?
This is the question that has probably been asked by everyone that has ever lived. Is our consciousness more than just neurons firing off? I have this debate with myself frequently and usually always come to the same dead end. Richard Dawkins says the universe does not owe us meaning. That's true. Maybe we just subscribe meaning to ourselves as a coping mechanism for death. Since everything in our head is built off of preexisting patterns our mind really can't fathom what death will be like, what will happen after the blood stops and the neurons slowly fade out one by one. A million microscopic lightning bolts firing for the last time. Enter religion. Opinions?
