Immortality vs reincarnation...which you rather be?

[Satha]

If you was given the choice of

A) Immortal body but mortal mind

B) Mortal body but immortal soul

which do you prefer to be? Why??

[Satha]

With immortal, you stay alive forever as long as your head attached to your body.
You keep all your memories forever except if you losed your head, you stay that way forever.

With mortal, you can die but your soul reincarnates whenever you die, recylcled again and again....but you don't remember past life.

Example immortal, Highlander. If decapitated, he die.

I'll be Duncan Mcloud anyday, since he kicked Donnie Yen's (General Kie) ass in "End Game".

Immortality! Reincarnating over & over sucks cuz you can't even remember your last life, what's the point? I wanna remember & I don't wanna die. If I'm bored of life or something, I'll just take century naps. Also, benefit of being immortal is to witness & see the world/galaxy/universe change through time. That's a knowledge I dream of ever knowing.

BUT. ... I wouldn't wanna be immortal if I was ugly lololol. Yes, I'm shallow. :cool:

[LaoGuy]

Reincarnation for me. The beauty of knowing I will come back again and again and having a new life, what is more greater than that.

[sSilentxstarzZ]

Reincarnation. I don't wanna remember anything from the past life. I moved on for a reason. Clean slate for me. I'm not even gonna get into the whole paying for wrongdoings I committed in my past life. whatever. That person is dead. I'd be a new person

[Tawnchan]

reincarnation... it's hard being me. ;)

[christmasSOCKSinJuly]

Immortal. I wanna have the sense of time and be able to reflect on my past, present and what I can do for the future.

[Boross_IT]

Reincarnate because
I want the chance to start over with a clean slate.

If I'm immortal
And I messed up in this life
I would always be reminded of it

REINCARNATE HANDS DOWN.

Yes. Godlike. :D

Why is this in the love & relationship section? :confused:

In your past life if u die early, say in your early 20's like my man did. And keep on dying young. You will be reincarnated into a female. It's crazy how this world of ours work. God work in mysterious way's yo. I have a crazy ass story that will give u goosebumps n send chills up up ur neck about a person I know who was reincarnated. It was told by a monk/ furtune teller / psychic person from Cambodia a lil after my bro-law was killled. It's a tough decision and I'd still have to think it over if I get to choose. off to work now . later KL

Thats not true. You can have memories of your past life, through recurring dreams and/or flashbacks. It has happened, and it has happened to me. I'm still etchy on who I may have been, but a slight idea. The only doubt is because the past figure seems too famous and would seem far fetched to be believable. But there is still strong possibilities. I have had recurring dreams of the 18th century since a kid and in my 20's...they were frequent as I had witnessed in my dreams (which felt more like vivid memories) of historical events and some were sentimental personal memories. From the clothes, to the architecture...and my fondness and familiarity of things...anything of that era. I splurge on furniture so that I could feel almost at home, at peace.

[Matique]

I'd hate to lose the memory of the people I know now. But I'm not sure if I could live with them passing away =/

[iLLEVEN]

Awesome thread,

I'd have to go with immortality so I can watch over my next generation(s) and pass on knowledge about the family members who are long gone and just enjoy the simple things without the stress of dying lol

That's just human ego romanticizing about oneself's importance/significance. There's nothing credible to go by to accept that our dreams are flashes of our past lives. It's about as "real" as horoscopes and star signs, which you know how I feel about that lol.


Eg. If I dreamed I was a king, I should believe that I really was a king? Nonsense lol.

[Sovie]

Reincarnation. I'd rather cherish a short life and die with loved ones than to live alone while constantly watching love ones die. I think life would lose value if I were immortal.

[Mizz_Luv3r]

I choose to only be immortal, stuck at the age of 21 and with my loved ones. Otherwise, let me integrate with the stars.

You always believed in non existence after death just as how I kinda see you, a human form with a non existant soul. To each their own.

[jom]

from what i learned from the bible along time ago, we are not supposed to want either immortality, nor reincarnation.

only salvation or heaven at judgment day.

so if a Christian choses either, are they really a Christian? :hmmm:

[leftear]

Reincarnation ofcourse. It's like playing a new game everyone and if you're losing, just rage quit jk don't. it would definitely be a lot more exciting than playing the same game forever.

[Ivan]

If reincarnation were true, I'd wish to be born as me again. That'd be tight!

[Tina Pheng]

Immortal.

[DrifteR_-]

[TheChau]

[Icyfrozen]

Immortal for now.

There is a really great Tom Hanks film called The Green Mile. In the movie, Tom Hank plays a death row officer who, at the age of 44, attained mortality for sending an innocent man to his execution even though he and the prisoner were good friend.

The prisoner (Played superbly by Michael Clarke Duncan) named John Coffey was one of God's Angel. He was a man who was able to cure sickness and back life to dead creatures. He was wrongfully accused and sent to prison just because he was a black man the day they found him crying in front of two little girls that had just been murdered. The real murderer, a rapist, ended up on death row in the same prison as John Coffey.

Tom Hanks character beyond the age of 44 attained immortality. He suffered through life by watching all of his loved ones pass away.

He believes that God grant him immortality so that he can suffer for the rest of his life.

[HerMajesty]

^ loved that movie. Saw it several times. I choose reincarnation, I hate the idea of having to live to see people die.

[Mali]

None. I would never want to live in this world forever, in any form. That would be hell.
