Afterlife

18 Sep 2006 - Under General By Mandrake

I was reading FF’s post about bringing back polygamy.

It makes me wonder how this would apply to the afterlife. I know in Christinity, one is only supposed to have only one spouse, especially true when it comes to being a Catholic. Technically, you can’t even divorce the spouse to remarry.

So what happens if one of the spouses died and you decide to marry another person? This would complicate things in the afterlife, wouldn’t it?

Imagine all those had died and met up in the afterlife.

“Hi Nancy, this is Steff, the other woman I married after you pass away.”

So if its okay to do that, and it won’t cause any complications in the afterlife, why can’t we do it when we are alive?

In the afterlife, you have eternity to spend time with the other person, but what if there are more than one? What happens? You get split up between the two? Would you have similar ideal even after the split?

I wonder if you ask this question in your religion class, what kind of answers would you get? Especially in a religion which stresses on monogramy.

    in Christianity, our spirit/soul (dependent on which definition you use) survives and goes to heaven or hell (dependent on the path you choose), this “spirit/soul” is sex less.

    There are many males (by physical sexuality) in thw world, but how many are really man?
