If yes why?
If no why not?

It is not up to me ! It is up the Creator of life.
This is an interesting topic I believe Billy tried to contact me after he died. I think he found God somehow that's why after I learned the meaning of life and became enlightened I think he hinted to me that he was ok!i

No..Not yet. Life is goin well for me and I live in interesting times. Besides, I dread reincarnation. My luck is I'd be reincarnated as some sheik's child sex slave.
I feel ready for when ever the time comes... an it seems due to a feelin of contentment.!!!
Both . . . . . If yes, why . . . . . . I believe I've figured-out what happens when we 'die'. If no, why not . . . . . I still have a few other things want to figure-out
A related question.Is our knowledge* of our own death a different kind of knowledge to other types of knowledge?
Or does it just seem different (more internalized)?
Is it a type of knowledge that is both subjective and objective? Is that what makes it different (if it is)?
*if "knowledge" is an accurate description....

Well then I believe that you are not worth listening to. Ignore.
I intend to live forever....so far I'm doing OK.
You don't really want to Paddo are else you will...
You're actually not that bad a guy!i
But without the full affect of le place's point of view
realised "now" cannot be located this is both statistically improbable but not impossible, and technically unsound...
Well, it was. But it has since gone. To be replaced by another. And another. Until all the nows have run their infinitesimally short course and there are no more to be had. At that point, and only at that point, will I be no more.Not La Place, but the Buddha, rather.
"Now" is purely subjective, it is completely within your perceptual space.
Can we really understand "now" in that way? Is there an analogy to the way particles are no longer considered individual separate objects.
Even if we consider the "nows" as a succession of separate experiences , there can surely be no demarcation between each "now"
They "bleed into" each other.
As Janis Joplin said "It's all the same fucking day"
That is for fun ,not seriously
Ditto. I have felt that way nearly all my life. I would never kill myself as long as I can talk or write & move about in some manner but I would not want to live again as long as I have unless it gets much better & even if it did I cannot imagine wanting to live several hundred years. Tho if I am slated to go to heaven, I would prefer to put that off for at least 333 trillion googolplex millennia. If there is reincarnation, I hope I do not come back to this lousy frigging planet.
