Opinionated!

Religion, in my opinion, is a simple concept. It is something man must believe in as his mind can't cope with the idea of his conscious mind just ceasing to exist. This brings to mind the concept of Cthulhu. The concept that there is a creature that if you ever saw it you would go mad as your mind can not grasp the concept of said creature. Well I recently watched a video, of which I cannot recall the name, where they explained the concept of reality in the mind. They said that, for example only, a man could think of something ridiculous such as a chicken (for lack of something better) and get an erection. As my friend and I discussed this could mean that after you die, your conscious mind does not actually die, but in fact lives on putting you into a sort of everlasting dream. In this dream you may be in heaven, or reincarnated, or in hell. Where ever you believed you would go or what would happen to you when you died.

In one religion they believe that we are actually in a dream our whole lives, and that when you die you wake up. Isn’t that a possibility, considering the facts that we have gone over? Maybe this life is just a dream and when we die we wake up and live through a day then go back to another life. Haven’t you noticed that just as you die in your dream, you wake up?

This all ties together. I thought you would all like to know how my head works, and what goes on in it most of the time. Though most of probably actually didn’t care at all. Well anyway, if you read this I hope you can actually leave your mind open to new ideas and do not believe in that that can only be proved.

Okay If you don't agree with this, don't say "OH YOU"RE GOING TO HELL!!" Or "I HATE YOU". Basically, be mature in your comments, not stupid. If you do agree, That's great! Lemme know. If not, lemme know...Just say. I don't agree. And I will be happy. So again, DONT-BE-STUPID! Thank you for spending time to read this. Now read above if you havent, post below if you have.

(Rated it mature for the word "erection" just to be cautious.)

I'm a religous person and yet you brought up some good points in this. Good arguement!

The first one(dream of what you believe), I thought up on my own a long time ago. Curious about how religion worked and how people came to believe. The second one (dream, wake up) I thought up after listening to Nine Inch Nails - Right Where It Belongs. It got me into some deep thought about everything, and, boom, there it was. You should take a listen sometime, it's a really good song.

So I guess, in the end, we have pretty similar minds. It's good to know someone who thinks like I do. I hope you don't mind a watch, do you?
