Of Death : An Absurd Perspective

              "Everyone jabbers about human rights. What a joke! Your existence isn't founded on any right. They don't allow you to end your life by your own choice, these defenders of human rights."  - Milan Kundera

Right to Die :

In machines, we give inputs and receive outputs. In the same way, for life the input is the basics we require to live and outputs are the amount of happiness, pain or satisfaction we get in return. And if the inputs are too hard to feed and the outputs are not worth the effort you have put in, isn't it your right to end the system?

The problem with this wonderful, wonderful idea is that ever since the origin of humanity, death has always been associated with evil, with pain, with hell. We are so obsessed with life that somewhere death has always been cornered, even considered as taboo in many of our cultures. On the contrary, death is a part of life itself.
Death is simply like you're asked to choose one of the 3 doors and you don't know what's behind each door. No one can tell what's after death but if you don't believe in a fairy tales and you don't believe in the Buddhist philosophy of re-incarnation, you may simply say it's the end, peace!

3 After-death Possibilities :

1. Heaven: This is simply not possible. A space for tens of billions of people that provides them with everything they need. And who are the fairies then who do all the work? And why is the heaven for some hell for them? Even if we assume that all the work happens on its own, this violates a lot of scientific principles. Newton and Einstein up there can't take it. It would make them unhappy and in the heaven you can't be unhappy. So, it's impossible to find a place which would make everyone happy.

2. Hell: If there were people who burnt the bad people, the third law of Newton would make them equally bad. And if that person who burns people all the time ever sat contemplating on what he is doing and what his life is about, he might as well burn himself.

3. Re-incarnation: The population of world has more than doubled in past fifty years. If re-incarnation were a truth, where are the new souls coming from? The world started with Adam and Eve, right? Two souls to start with. How did we become 6 billion?
