    If nonexistence was temporary before birth, surely it won’t be temporary after birth

    Yeah it’ll be a hella long time before your mind molecules come together again, sure

    But you won’t feel how long it was. You’ll just be born again with a new and different existence

    Time goes to infinity, which means that there is a 100% chance of it happening again in any given amount of time

        You talking about the inevitable heat death of the universe?

        Yeah there’s a 100% chance that it won’t stay like that. Just a matter of time until whatever caused the atoms and energies to become clumpy and imperfect is going to do it again in some big or small way. There’s no beginning and end to the universe, which means that it has existed for an infinite amount of time, which also means that heat deaths have happened before

        Everything that can go wrong will go wrong. Everything has already happened and will always happen, over and over again in incomprehensible stretches of time that the human brain is not capable of quantifying

        One day you will be a green pigeon with legs made of beans, who is the president of basketball planet. Everything has happened before and will happen again, just like anything ever

          We get it. You have infinity as your denominator and that takes you literally everywhere. However I must point out that if everything must happen “everything” includes an infinite unending static state to the universe. This is not a contradiction as we know some infinites are larger than others. Right after I am a green goose with a candy whistle for a dick, a permanent heat death of the universe will be the next thing to occur.

    A common saying on Roman tombs/graves:

    Non fui, fui, non sum, non curo; often abbreviated as NFFSNNC.

    It means, ‘I was not, I was, I am not, I care not.’

    The void is fine, its actually preferable to the other stated alternatives. I fear the pain on my way there, and the pain my absence may bring to those I care for

    Facts does not need an apostrophe as it is neither possessing anything nor contracting with anything

    To quote (or more likely paraphrase, it’s been a while) Dan from the Game Grumps … I’m not afraid of being dead. I’m afraid of dying.
