I never read the bible but according to Dante's Inferno it exists in the outskirts of hell. Before Jesus Christ came to earth everyone who did not commit sins was trapped in limbo, and then he freed them. People who aren't baptised but who have not committed sins also go there, such as babies who died before getting baptised and were too young to sin.
Too bad if it doesn't exist, it sounded like an awesome place.

Well i dont give a flying finger about afterlife but this feeling of death = end of story bye bye... is kinda depressing.
I think that is why ppl believe in God (any form of). They are afraid of that void.
Most people that get saved statistically at least are afraid of Hell not the void. Christains call it fire insurance. Lolz. Dante's Inferno as well as Purgatoria and Paradiso (Divine Comedy) are an awesome story. But they are extremely allegorical. This would be the same as Pilgrim's progress. Which I also suggest.
They tell a story more through a parody of the Bible than actually stating doctrinal beliefs. For instance. The Bible never mentions a limbo or circles of Hell. And surely never mentions the power to move through them freely.
You should read the bible if only for some insight on belief systems and for kicks. I know a lot of people who have read it for entertainment but dont believe any of it. It has some very interesting battles in it. And whether your a Christian or any other belief it has great advice.

I just fail to see any void in death. You won't disappear, you'll just return to the earth.
Again, just like monopoly. You have to put your token back in the box so someone else can play next time.
I would be so bored If I had to stay sentient forever. I'm sure the day will come when I'll be able to say "I've lived enough, I'm ready to go. Where's the closest active volcano?"
okay this might sound like im having huge problems or somthing. but no. i love my life !
But when i shall die i will die from suicide.
i dont want a sickness to beat me or a car or a gun, im first done with my life when i say so. that day i feel complete peacefull, when i can say honest to my self
- i tryed it all
- I am satisfied
- I have nothing more I need to achieve in my life
when that day come its my time, that day where i decidet i have lived my life.
how i will do?!? i dont know, that far into my life i aint got yet. but somthing peacefull.

If you go suicide, then that means you couldn't live your life to your fullest (Is that a word?.. o.o)

I'm not sure if I understand you. But I'm an atheist and I believe that when I die I'll cease to exist, I stop thinking and my organs stops working. Both mind and body lose their vitality, and I once again join the universe as nothing but dirt.
It's just like playing monopoly. You open the box and choose your token, you buy and sell properties, accumulate wealth or fall into poverty, and then it's game over and everything goes back in the box.
The only thing that is kept is your experience, both in monopoly and in real life, through stories, photos, videos and memories. And those too will once fade away.
Of course, if I'm wrong and hell and heaven exist I'll go to limbo. Which is much more awesome than heaven or hell.
