If you want sex in heaven, I suggest you become a Muslim. ;)

I want to start every morning saying a rosary with Mother Mary.
I want to learn different instruments from those who played them best. Imagine learning to play cornet or trumpet from Miles Davis, or drums from Neil Peart.
I want to meet my biological mother again, give her a hug and tell her I forgive her for abandoning me.
I want to meet all my friends and relatives I knew on Earth.
I want to thank my guardian angel for taking care of me.
I want to meet Adam and Eve.
And most of all, I want to meet Jesus and thank him.

I personally believe there's no afterlife. Just darkness.

The way I see it, I'll be catching up on all that sleep I so desperately craved for whilst alive.

Would be novel to finally put this permanently racing mind to rest, and be free of my tinnitus and similar comorbidities. Just preferably not in a ball of fire via a large bomb or a similarly horrific death, but beggars can't be choosers. :lol:

Darkness is still 'something' though. If it's nothing it would be something like going under for surgery and never coming out. No set, no setting, no time, no space, no subject or object.

Same here. The prospect of WW3 makes me nervous about this, on top of the objective horror of the scenario.

Reminds me of Bojack Horseman "The View From Halfway Down" As Bojack watches his old friends and deceased family members one by one enter a dark doorway. As he watches Herb get swallowed up by what looks like tar coming from the doorway, he says "See you on the other side." And Herb replies "There is no other side. This is it."

the most horrifying prospect is that of the survivors envying the dead.

The irony being that the something I believe in is nothing. Still a belief all the same. :lol:

Hope all of the hoops are worth it :wink:

However I depart, I'll be ready.

What is more depressing about it is that the safeguards we had during the Cold War are apparently no longer existent. :(

Our blue and red-flavored neoliberal party I'd imagine.
