Is it wrong to think like this?

I don't believe in death, I have thought about alot, and for a long time, like most things that don't make sense to me, I think about them, and I try to see how it feels to me, and I've decided that death is something that is manmade, thats its an end, its final, there is no more, one chance, thats all folks! No second chance, no refund, no nothing, why?
You could go to heaven, why? I want to experience more, to try out something else, live another live, see what its like to be someone/ something else.
I know many people who have said when the question of death has come up, "they bury you in the ground, and thats it!"
What about your spirit, where does that go then, don't these people think they have one?
We are spirits having a human experience,
Not a human having a spiritual experience.

Well your belief is in good company here - being a spiritual forum. I think you must already surely know that it is not wrong to think like that.

I totally agree with you Mark
(Except I personally, am not particularly enamoured of reincarnating. But then, I am an old bat, and you are probably not!)

I could argue with you here but there's really no need. Once you're okay with dieing, then that's okay. But if a moment ever comes where you fear what might happen to your 'spirit', let me know and we can have the argument. hehe

My opinion: Death is not just the end of your life, but the continuation of your life, it is what constructs you and everyone around you constantly. Death is actually right with us, along with life, at the same time together, at this very moment, even when were alive.

There is a big black hole of nothingness right next to us, right now, and it's dark, but its there along with everything else you see in front of you. Both are intertwined together to create this expansive field of infinite energy that allows us to continue on forever, for eternity.

There is no death but only a continuation of life. we are all here to learn until our learning runs its course we come back again (reincarnate ) our soul lives on it dos not die

Death is irrelevant...
there is only the present...
this "present" is still with us regardless of where we go...
as you read this you are present,
if we move from one place to another we have essentially died in relation to where we used to be...
and yet we are still present...
we would have been born to this new place,
all-the-while we are still present...
when we pass from being physical we will still be present, you can check this yourself as the events are unfolding...
you will always be present no matter what the circumstances are that surround you...
death is irrelevant,
it's this present-experience-of-self that is absolutely pure and continuous.... :^)
