What is death?

Well you were something before you were born, just more likely you were a different form of energy thus why you have no conscious thought of ever being such.
 
Of course your a form of energy. Energy cannot be destroyed. Therefore it is transferred from the womb into the fetus.

So the fetus is just a host for this energy? Nonsense, let's keep souls out of the discussion.
 
Were not talking about souls, were talking about energy in its purest state. Energy is infinitely changing, as is the matter that it flows. So what were saying is that you were something before life just not anything you will be able to know, remember, or even comprehend.
A soul could be called this, like many other descriptions for it. But, if we stick mainly to the religion form of a soul then no were not talking about one.

I see your banned, but I disagree. How can this energy travel? The energy we are today is from the placenta in the womb, which helps develop us as fetuses. But that's really not what this thread is about, we're straying off topic.

Our energy cannot evaporate once we die, and there was an actual experiment done to see if when you died, something left and you weighed less. The experiment was a success, and when the subject 'died' (yes, it was a human being), the body lost weight. Could that be actual death? And could this be the mythical 'soul'?

This guy?

Doesn't sound very scientific to me.
 
Death to me is the end of life, it occurs when the organs, and functions of your body season to occur.

Do you believe you can come back from death? IE, all body processes stop, yet you are 'reborn' persay, as in you become alive again?
 
THIS I am incredibly interested in,please send me a link so I can watch it.I am a huge Nat-Geo freak and would love to post my thoughts after watching.I also and incredibly intrigued by death.
 
well ive had an experience with family my grandfather has 3 stage 4 cancers
Prostate cancer, brain cancer, Lung, cancer.
and he died for 30 Minutes and they revived him and hes still alive to this day (2 years later) and the nurse that saved him told us all at the hospital that everything in his body that functioned shut off 100% and he still survived for 30 minutes without oxegen to the brain or anything so i think death is just when your body has no oxegen left cause even after you die im sure you still have oxegen left in your body but it slowly escapes you thats my 2 cents.
 
Well, our buddies over at ChaCha said:

The longest time someone has been dead is Grigorievich Rodonai* a Russian, who was killed by the KGB. He was in the morgue for 3 days in cold storage. During the autopsy, he regained consciousness. Thanks for using ChaCha! Have a great day!

So I guess that ^ could be true, although a source would be appreciated.

Anyways, I think "death" basically means that the heart as stopped beating.
 
Death is the defeat of body by heart(the heart is an involuntary muscle), one's existence is superfluous.
 
Reviving somebody after 6 hours of being "Dead" isn't rebirth, it just means the revivee wasn't "Dead" after all... ^^
 
my opinion on death is dying or your life being takin away , no longer living , but i believe in reincarnation so yah or however u spell it

Finally unbanned =P
And what I merely meant was that energy is the basic form of everything since is can only be transferred and does not disappear. Same as with matter which is also apart of this, since i had previously mentioned that these two primal elements compose us yet they are ever changing throughout time.
But yes i agree that in a theoretical sense this could be the soul, since the soul is a piece of us that is only alive by itself and cannot be traced or tracked its merely a tool of faith. But if we give it some sort of basis, such as the energy we lose from death or the matter that we lose as we decay and it changes to something else. Yes these could be considered a soul and when these are lost then there is the possibility that this is true death.
