The Afterlife.

Mazer and Sam were having a discussion about the after life, with Sam saying it was a form of reincarnation, in which mind and matter are one and so never stop existing. However, Mazer doubted this because he thought that we went to an afterlife in which we burn or nothing at all. Pharath joined into the conversation saying he disagreed with both and thought we went to heaven if we were good.

The conversation is as follows:

"We reincarnate due to the process of death, in which our being which is eternal remains ever in the earth we are buried in and follows natural processes of recycling towards firstly the grass that consumed us, then the animals and finally a return to manhood." said Sam.

Mazer answered:

"No, when we die , God takes us to a fiery place where we suffer and burn for eternity. Or perhaps nothing at all, because their is no evidence for this. Since logically, if we have no evidence for something , we should take the logical position and say it is nothing, because nothing is a natural product."

But Pharath said:

"While I agree that some people burn in the afterlife for their crimes, we are taken to a better place beyond this world, because God is good and we are good. This is possibly done through the soul, which is eternal and goes out of the body at death"

Now the boys didn't agree with each other and each had a separate view on how death functioned. However Luck also had something to say, saying:

"It depends on something vastly important to who you are, in that each of you is correct. While Sam reincarnates, Mazer goes to hell and Pharath goes to heaven. However, it can also depend on where you are and the part you're in. Since different worlds dictate different rules of function. Meaning while it is true that Mazer goes to hell, if he did the wrong things he may pay justly for his crimes. Which in his case would not be hell, because he wants to go there."

"Yeah sure, but how does it work?" Asked Sam.

"Its rather simple, while a portion exists for each person, that portion allows for separate parts. Meaning your location in life and the effects you have on the surrounding area and people effects what happens to you here and so the afterlife. Essentially, it depends on the context of both what you believe and what you did here in a location of the cosmos. If you break laws of a part, their are consequences by the spirits of that part."

" Could you explain further?" Asked Pharath "Because it's different from what I believe."

"Four specific things are in consequence to a part, the stage your in dictates the rules, the people who live there often like the world the way it is. However their is a degree of randomness and wildness to this, in that it is based off the people and place, not in perfection, but context. Finally it depends on the god of the world as well, who has certain authority over the part."

"So your saying that it depends on the part your in and that if you commit wrong acts in the part , you can find yourself at the mercy of the god of the part?" asked Sam.

"Somewhat , within the context of the action, for example if Pharath went to Mazer's part and demanded he be good, then Pharath risks going to hell. Same goes for Mazer in a part where one is supposed to be good." said Luck

"However, I see a problem with this." Said Mazer.

"If I am something I don't want be because I'm stuck in a part that forces me to be a different way and I didn't want to be that way, then it isn't really fair." He continued.

"This is why it depends on context, in a situation in which you are forced to be something you don't want to be, or that you can't even be that expected person because you aren't that kind of person, even if its wrong in the eyes of its people, things would be dealt with accordingly, but in a fashion that's just for all. Since, even though you want to be mean and have the right to, it shouldn't be with the people who don't want that and so you'd be moved to a place where you can be happy, just as you'd move to a part that welcomes you if it was available." said Luck

"But that doesn't bring justice to those Mazer was mean to." said Pharath.

"It does because theirs no place for Mazer to go." Said Luck.

"Since this world contains no place for Mazer to be mean, he will simply be put back into this world where he isn't permitted to be mean. Further its just to you too, because he deserves a part to be mean in because you don't want him to be mean."

" Okay, so we see that it depends on context, but that still doesn't make us all right. This sounds more like a unified theory" Said Sam.

"It does not only because of the context, if theirs no place for Mazer or even Pharath to go, then one does not have justice. If their is a place for Mazer to be mean and he goes to a place he isn't supposed to be mean in, then he can pay the price for his actions dependent on the area , within reason. Since he had a place to be and went elsewhere. In this way, Pharaths place truly does have justice, because Mazer shouldn't be mean there and so if he went there and was mean, he'd pay the price of the afterlife's justice in that place. However this only really works if theirs another place where he can be mean, because if not it isn't fair."

"Wait a minute, I want everyone to go to hell with me!" Said Mazer.

"In a part." said Luck.

"But that's not everyone." Said Mazer with a devilish smile.

"You misunderstand." Said Luck."While you go to hell and they go to heaven, in hell you'll find everyone. Sam goes for pharath who sometimes expects justice for the people that do bad things, those people will be in hell when he's in heaven."

" But how can both occur at once? " Said Sam " I could unify it and say that some peoples hell is another's heaven, but Luck your being absurd, both literally occurring at once is weird."

"I don't see how its wrong though, because of phental parts each fitted to the needs of the people within, further out of body experiences seem to suggest this , especially near death experiences, in that their unique to the individual. However, it should be tested." Said Luck

"Pffft , how the heck are you going to test the afterlife." Said Mazer.

"Well, you'd simply have to die and come back from the dead." Said Luck.

" Uhm , I don't think anyone except Jesus has done this." Said Pharath.

Interesting note from the author, once when I was a kid I witnessed a bug come back to life after I had killed it and buried because I felt bad.

"Actually, they've already done it with dogs." Said Luck.

"What?"Said Sam.

"In the 1940's they killed a dog and brought it back to life for a short time, then later other scientists did it again. Now while in the first case the dog died again, the point is that an improved version of this already exists. If humans by their own free will experiment with this, they can perhaps unlock the mysteries of what happens after death."

"Hmm, this sounds like I'm right." Said Sam.

"Your right, it does suggest that in essence the mind remains in an oblivious state after death and so comes back through time." Said Luck.

"But what about the actual after life?" Said Pharath.

"Either, it isn't accessed directly from death, but through life. Or the divine take the souls and move them themselves, to an afterlife after death." Said Luck.

"Could you explain that more"said Mazer.

"In the first case, we move the corpse to a new location which is their heaven, or keep it in their pre-existing heaven so that they remain there so they exist in their heaven, with their permission of course. In the second case, it would be similar except an entity outside our knowledge does it for us."

" I still don't know if that makes sense, because matter can disappear" said Mazer.

"Entropy , while possibly out of topic, is likely the transfer of matter to another location. A part doesn't just vanish as even nothing becomes something again, at least in my current theory. This would mean that in essence, the disappeared person goes to another dimension or spiritual plane."Said Luck.

" Well , we're getting off topic now, so lets move on to other things, but as a final peice, are we even alive?"

"Depends on what you believe" Said Luck. " Since while we exist, its debatable due to the above thing whether we could consider ourselves alive or actually already dead. We can even say its both, but honestly its up to the person to decide if their a zombie or not. You could even consider some ghostly." Said Luck.

"Why?" asked Pharath.

"Because all living things are alive because they are energy and contain a life force, but energy does not contain energy, so is not alive." Said Luck.

"That's a unified concept." said Sam.

" Not really, it shows that it can be any of the above or more. Because, we have energy and life. We don't have energy and are dead or its both and it depends on how you look at it. Its the same either way, without being the same." Said Luck.

This concludes the conversation.
