Concepts of God (The nature of a \'Creator\')
Dhw: And for those who believe in reincarnation (the "heavier state"), as you mention below, there is even the possibility of metempsychosis - living again in another form. I vaguely remember asking you what form you would like to come back in if this is an option, but I can't remember the answer! BBELLA: I don't remember you asking the question before now, but if there were such a thing as reincarnation, I think I've already went the animal route - probably not that many lives ago - lol! It took me some time to get accustomed to humans in my life, as I came with an extreme affinity for animals and an early distant feeling of disdain for humans that took years to get over. But circumstances and genes could account for that, who knows? So except for possibly a bird, I don't think I'd do the animal thing here (again?). But if there were such a thing, I would hope the possibilities were endless to choose from in many other levels of being, so I have no desire to choose before it's time.-I wonder whether your disdain for humans ever returns - e.g. when you see what atrocities they commit against their fellow creatures, or you listen to some of our politicians. But then you see acts of kindness, and you listen to great music, and disdain gives way to admiration. I seem to go through life always being aware of both sides. I expect you are the same.-“No desire to choose before it's time” also rings a bell for me in my agnosticism. If there is a God, and if there is an afterlife, the time will come… -BBELLA: Aside from solipsism or any other mental experience, given the fact that there are so many differing accounts of these experiences (though many are uncannily similar) - if you were to go out on a limb for a moment and accept these differing experiences as reality, what do you think would be a good explanation that would fit all of these folks experiences? You do not have to use any known ideas in your answer - you can make up one like I did.-This is a fascinating challenge! I am short of time today, as I shall be off soon to score for my cricket team - cricket, like chocolate, is one of those inventions that fill me with admiration for my fellow humans! But I shall mull it over and get back to you tomorrow.
