As a counterargument I'd like to point out that when there's enough pain present you might just want to tap out.
Especially now since one of the lovely American corporations decided to fuck up pain medication for those that truly needs it for decades at the minimum, because they just had to get that fucking profit.
I'm not even American and I'm on about a third of what I theoretically should be. My doctors admit this, but anything more and there's a risk of malpractice bullshit.
Hence, pain. Fuck that. I'll tap out when enough is enough.
The major flaw in your reasoning is that you're assuming that there's less pain on the other side. It could be better, but it could be much much worse, especially if you're carrying the regret of unfinished business left behind.
The simplest explanation is that it's the same as before you were born. Can you see how a religious view might lead to unnecessary suffering in this life?
It's not a religious view - you folks need to take a step back and look at the argument, not your own inferences.
It's an unscientific view. Maybe in the afterlife you get to finally meet the Invisible Pink Unicorn, so what are you waiting for? When you weigh up all the imaginary possibilities, they add to just about zero.
If it's invisible it can't be pink.
Invisible just means you can't see it, not that it can't be pink. And remember, we're talking about a unicorn here.
If you can't see it, it can't be pink, unicorn or Pegasus.
You're both wrong. I've seen the unicorn and it's purple. There is only way. Follow me to the true purple Unicorn or face his wrath.
Spoken like a true cult member.
