True or false, in the bigger picture, it took an infinite amount of time before we were born?

And we will be gone for eternity.


Will it then then seem like we never existed, in the bigger picture?


What are your thought on this?


Thanks.True or false, in the bigger picture, it took an infinite amount of time before we were born?
You are a fool to believe in reincarnation.True or false, in the bigger picture, it took an infinite amount of time before we were born?
Nagel looks at this question in his essay on death and his essay on the absurd. While life may seem absurd, it is not absurd to us. We need to see meaning in our lives no matter how meaningless they actually are. For example, It actually does not matter whether I do my philosophy paper or not, but it does matter to me because i want to get a good grade in Philosophy.


There is an eterinity before and after death, but the eternity after death is the eternity we are missing out on because our life's experience stop with death but before birth our experiences did not start yet. I would say that your statement is true that it took an infinite amount of time before we were born. But it is the eternity after our death that matter more to us because that is the eternity we are missing out on.
there is no point in wondering something like that because there is no way to alter the outcome. I would guess that there is an eternity before and after now (and that random combination of particles over the googolplexes of years will eventually cause reincarnation).
In the bigger picture your question is futile and meaningless.
True from your perspective it might seem that way. But there's really no evidence to support it.
False. Time is a man's life. It took NO TIME whatsoever.





You simply started existing. Don't you remember?
Time began on the day I was born, and it will end when I die.
True.





for the physical..








False for the Spiritual... we have always been here in one form or other..
