  • Matter and energy cannot be destroyed, they only change form
    
    

    Yes, and the energy in your body is not ever destroyed. Your consciousness is electrical and chemical energy running a biological computer (brain). That energy is NOT lost when you die. Your brain will rot and be broken down by bacteria and worms, they will get that energy and it will continue FOREVER. The data, your consciousness, does not survive this energy transfer.

    I highly suggest you read Demon Haunted World by Carl Sagan. He really breaks down how much of this speculative stuff gets taken as fact without any proof, or even with proof to the contrary. It really is applicable today when people are rejecting reality in favor of religion, crystals, and energy healing. He uncovers the psychological processes that make this happen over and over in the course of human existence.

    TLDR; It’s all bullshit (he puts it way more respectfully)


  • The human soul cannot be measured even in a human body… So why do you think it exists? You sound like someone who completely rejects science in favor of fairy tales that make them more able to go to sleep at night.

    Reality is harsh and cruel. Your ‘soul’ is just your consciousness, it disappears the second there is no energy to keep your brain alive. The second you die you are gone forever, the only thing that remains is your memory until those people die. Nature does not care about you, you have the same worth as a cockroach.

    All of these religious fairy tales are there to exploit your fear of death. They give you a fairy tale saying that death isn’t the end so you feel better about life. All you have to do is follow their rules 😂









  • Among the first historians to argue in favour of the back-door-to-war theory were Charles Beard, author of American Foreign Policy in the Making, 1932–1940 (1946) and President Roosevelt and the Coming of the War, 1941 (1948), and Charles C. Tansill, author of Back Door to War: The Roosevelt Foreign Policy, 1933–1941 (1952). Half a century later, journalist and presidential candidate Patrick J. Buchanan gave continuing life to the theory by insisting in his book A Republic, Not an Empire (1999) that, contrary to accepted opinion, the United States need not have fought in World War II. The country was forced into a conflict with the Axis powers only by Roosevelt’s determination to aid Britain and Russia against Hitler. Without American involvement in the fighting, Buchanan argued, Nazi Germany and Soviet Russia would have destroyed each other, thereby sparing the world the post-1945 Cold War
