Question:How would you live your life differently? Think differently?


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: How would you live your life differently? Think differently?

The only change would come from those who are raised knowing this. Our children would be different than any previous generations. It would eventually get out of hand, but a balance would find itself into this equation. Perhaps some realist religion. Or karmic realizations. Humans cannot remain, as a whole, non-believers of something. Sure you have those proud few, but the masses will need leadership eventually, and that leadership needs his/her followers to believe in a common idea. Else nothing would get accomplished.

What does that mean?

If we all know that there is nothing anymore after death, I dont think people will change.

1. People will think: " I better live a moral life anyway just in case those people are wrong "
2. I dont know how to live life any differently, and this feels fine by me.

I predict there wont be any great changes

Well, it wouldn't necessarily cause a "highway to hell" scenario. I would still try not to inconvenience another's life. However, questions about religion would at last be answered, and we wouldn't have to worry about Republicans or 'jihad' anymore.

I would probably live it the way am doing now.This is because all the same, we all dont know what will happen next. But i think i would be a little relaxed,because i would know that am living it once and for all.

I would live just like I do.

I would do nothing differently except be disappointed for a minute that my hopes were dashed about eternal life.

This is a moot point, because we KNOW that there's life after death.

Lol try to live long as a possible I guess. Probably wouldn't change much..

I would study Philosophical Taoism and Zen Buddhism more closely.

Hmm, I would start by going out and buying the largest bottle of vodka I could fine, and the same for some cheap piss tasting high proof alcohol also.

The piss booze - Molotov cocktail on a church ^_^

The vodka - to drink as I watch the church burn.

Nothing new, nothing new.

Logically impossible to prove such a proposition.

I would become more sensual and less spiritual...but I know else wise.

I would be more careful not to waste much time.

It wouldn't make any difference to me. I always live each day as if it was my last.
