hi room. I’ve been talking to my friend about some issues. I originally started out saying there is nothingness at death. And she countered that there is not. She thinks nothingness does not exist on any level.
I claim there are always properties because there is never nothingness. Bear in mind the place where nothingness would be is the same exact place you die in.
We seem to address ‘place’ of death more than ‘state’ of death. Of course, the ‘place’ of death does not have properties… surely the ‘state’ of death does.
The properties of the state of death would be: agelessness, No suffering, No body/mind (and all that implies), no uncertainty, being right, end of time, end of space, No value… Unless of course, there is a god, in which case there would be more divinity to death.
How can there be no properties to something in the physical world? Death does not transform to something out of the physical world…it must conform to rules or laws in every physical system.
what are you saying? nothing cannot have laws. laws are something. Other than the law that is inherent in its own nature. it’s Nature is it’s inherent law.
The only law nothingness has is its nature. Its nature breaks down into laws, but from nowhere else.
What about non-physical worlds, i.e. your consciousness, (your consiousness is not “in the physical world” is it?), how are you gonna measure rules and laws of that? And your consciousness is the matter at question isn’t it?
