Answer

Hey! I read all answers and see that all are staying at the most primitive and dense level and that is the materialistic field. Personality for me belongs also to this. As this is posted in philosophy, there should be something more than just this.brWhere are all those spiritual and religious people? As far as I remember from school in classes about religion, there was a man Jesus who told people that there is not such a thing like death and he also demonstrated this by showing up alive after he was killed. Well this might be just a nice story to satisfy his followers, as it also belongs to the primitive aspects. But what about the philosophical part of eternal life? In this of course the body is seen only as a changeable form that will be renewed, not really important, because there is a permanent entity and for this there is no death. Sounds good, maybe too good? Or why it is not mentioned when something about it is ask? brWell, this just shows that we live in the first place with a materialistic worldview and philosophy serves to confirm our position. Right? Religion is just the way to manipulate people and to keep them calm. Wasnt it Marx who mentioned this? brAnyway, I was just surprised and was wondering where are all those religious people who usually show up in all occasions.brInkyPinkie
