>>11295895ultimately you're an actor in a play and you're asking your co-stars to feed you a line that will change the parameters of the production. Nothing your character does or says or understands will change the fact that the play you're in ends at 9 PM.
I guess this metaphor falls apart when you consider that you don't get to just go home when this "play" is over, and you don't really have any context for the idea of "you" prior to when it started.
Yeah idk, listen to the afterlife-anons. It's probably not true that there's more to death than meets the eye, but it really won't hurt you to put your faith in something that makes you feel better.
