Just Rambles on Death and Everything Else.

I was walking to class today and I really tried to break down death. What is it, what really happens, is there heaven? I couldn't really decide because there is no evidence either way. When I myself think about death the only thing that comes to mind is darkness. Nothingness. But what is it. Does it just end or is there somewhere our soul and mind goes? Do we just start over as a new person in a new life? I can't figure it out and then my mind branched. How does how ever many billion people in this world think completely different from one another. No two people are suppose to be exactly the same. But is this actually true. Can someone think and be exactly the same. Kind of like a combo lock...you can only have so many combinations before it repeats. But I am unsure about this theory. It's kind of weird to think about how everyone thinks, everyone makes choices, everyone believes in different things. It's actually quite amazing. My mind branched again. I read an article and heard on the news how when your pet dies you can cut a piece of them off and send them to a company and have your animal cloned. I think science is really pushing this now. I'm pretty sure they have cloned people by now if they have cloned sheep, dogs, and other animals. It's really scary to think some day parents if their child dies in a car accident at a young age or at any age and they really want them back that the technology is their to clone that person. It's really scary. But yet if they have had all these technological advances and can do this how come they haven't cured more diseases and cancers. My personal theory on this is money. Take breast cancer - It costs $800 000 to treat one breast. That's a lot of money to pass up...to me that seems a pretty good reason not to cure cancer. This is an outrage. They can put all this money into cloning but not into curing cancer or just other illnesses. So much for doing anything for the good of people. Id say it's more for the good of their pocket book. But this is long enough.
I will post again soon.

Philosopher of the mind and heart.
