If you have no perception of time, does infinity pass within the blinking of an eye?

Ever talked to the dead?
I have.

Getting them to talk back however, is an entirely different matter. Maybe it’s a Star-trek non-intervention thing, free will an all that, or maybe its our own inability to tune in. Either way I think people should be mature enough to discuss the possibility without being labeled ‘Bible Basher’, ‘Nutter’ or ‘Weirdo’.

I think anybody who says they can’t accept the possibility of the existence of a soul or even contemplated it has to be lying. I suspect even the most hardened atheists would prefer that there is an afterlife, I think atheists are so tremendously pissed at the dogma’s that saturate all religions as am I myself, that the only logical remainder having based their lives on ethics is to become an atheist. Though I’m not an atheist myself, I would rather be labeled a theist, with a belief system based on the information I have gathered and researched myself and the experiences I’ve had. Better that than the alternative, a dogmatic bigot.

Having said that, looking into my childrens eyes and feeling the torrent of emotion and love, I couldn’t help wondering, why all the suffering, all the war, all the famine.

Then my brain spluttered and farted and spat this out:

Maybe time was created to slow us down, so that we could appreciate all life has to offer, maybe without time there is no empathy, I mean if there was no time, you’d have no time to give a shit right?

So maybe in this place of eternal joy and happiness having no perception of time my life passes in the blinking of an eye. I die and turn up at the gates of Heaven to be greeted with:

God – “you back already? did you have a nice trip?”

Me – ” well no actually, I had a terrible time, there I was floating around in this nice warm cocoon, an some nugget from a place called planned parenthood shredded me with some sort of egg wisk, so I didn’t really see that much”

God – “well theres no point complaining, you had just as long as everybody else!”
