I am for the most part a “believer” but I don’t fear nonexistence after this short life is over. In fact ... I'm getting sick of hearing that fear of oblivion argument against "believers." My fear is, if the reductionist materialism theory is true, then it would truly mean that all of life is meaningless.
Yes … I know atheists and/or materialists will find the same joy and meaning with their lives perhaps through the love of their friends and family (even though this love that they experience is just chemicals in the brain that make them feel good.) Right?
But I’m not referring to the meaning of our short physical life. We can all experience meaning in our impossible short lives, no matter what worldview one has.
I’m talking about the information that includes memories, culture, art, relationships, etc. etc. etc. That this information of human existence (past, present and future depending on when the end comes) can and will be absolutely obliterated. It is only a matter of time that all of human life (and all of life for that matter) will be erased. Forever! If a giant asteroid collides with our planet tomorrow, all of human information will be completely erased. All the human emotions ... plus all of human experiences, history and civilization will be gone.
And it is worse than that. It is if all of this information of human life (and … again ALL LIFE) will be if it NEVER existed at all! Because no god, no spirits, no angels, no demons, no multidimensional beings, no extraterrestrials, no other life forms at all will be here to even document the human existence and experience. Human information was never here. We were NEVER here.
So yeah! I hope the materialists are wrong. It scares the shit of me of the thought that they could be right, because that will mean nothing will matter and all of our information will ultimately be nonexistent. So … I will hold on to my "fairy tale" belief that there is much more to all of us at the risk of being ridiculed by atheists. Thankfully the evidence is mounting against this ridiculous and bleak worldview we call materialism.
Ouch! That was loud. I forgot to turn off the mic before I dropped it.
