One conclusion that I came up with recently is that I actually don't exist. If you are reading this now you would think that is ridiculous, how could I write this blog entry if I don't exist?
Here is my reasoning, If I took a time scale of one thousand billion years then I could say that more than 500 billion years of that time contains no evidence I ever existed. My body and present consiousness has gone. Most the atoms that my body is made of has been destroyed through radioactive decay. All memories of me have long gone and the planet that is my home no longer exists. It is possible that the universe as we know it no longer exists at that point also. All matter has decayed away into energy and disappeared and there is no evidence that our universe was ever present.
If I draw a picture and it is burned up by fire or if I never draw the picture, the outcome would be the same; there is no picture. The picture does not exist.
Eternity is the most important thing to most human beings. We reach out for our creator and God because we need purpose and eternity to merit our existence.
