I am really looking forward to your answers!
This week winners (upvoting starts today and ends on saturday):
@whitestallion- Even though I do not agree on love, we all have our own views that I respect
I consider the word passion to involve not just love for something or someone ,but a love that involves an individuals talks and agruments on support of his passi9n whether good or bad.
@definethedollar - For simple explanation of what it is and what it means to him…and surprise
For me mathematics is a passion...especially numbers, and (surprise) Primes. When an idea hits me, it consumes me and I feel filled with purpose...but she can be a cruel mistress, shy and demure, ever retreating...
If you would like me to remove you from post tags, please comment and I will do so; sorry for the inconvenience caused by this.
Why do I do this?
The reasons are simple; I would like to give something to the community. As in life, you need to give happiness to receive it. It is not something you search for or look for, that is a waste of time and resources; to be happy is something you get from others and to get it you first need to give it.
I like to learn new things, look from other perspectives, try to be as opened to new ideas and thoughts, hear other people opinions, discuss, engage in talk on a specific topic; all for the sake of self-improvement.

Death: A typical ending of any activity from, a being or even an object that was taking part in a daily activity but stopped suddenly.
so, just the lack of energy inside objects(bodies as well)?
specifically to make any progress in their states of nature or more of their environment.
Got it..interesting definition and views..
Death... Some call it a loss, I would call it a transfer. How? Well... If we define death, we should look upon what is opposite to it. Some would say life, but is it truly? If life is an energy driven by the light, and energy never dies, can the life be the opposite to the death? I would say no, and I still couldn't find the opposite to death! But, I would define death, by a physical way of looking into its definition, as a transferring energy from the body to its unknown form... But by the emotional introspection we truly feel the separation while the living creature that use to be involved in our life passes away. It hurts, but we still keep on living....
Yes, but it is hard to speak about energy and opposite. For example, if we burn an animal( it is its death) yes the energy of "life" is transformed in heat energy, but we do not call heat "life"..I hope you get my point..just because something is energy it is not necessary life by any definition. More precise would be to define it by the lack of energy in cells...
To understand something, I don't think we need to understand opposition, it is just human meaning, not the source of understanding.
Thanks for your answer, hope to hear more.
Ok, good point! But still, from my spiritual way of thinking, I would love to believe that the energy of life also do not disappear, that it is just taking the new form. Your example of burning an animal is the physical explanation that actually made me wonder is my theory correct, and can I even give the explanation as I did above - of death and life as the same, not as the opposite. I am sure that I will find another explanation, or just still stay to the spiritual way of thinking mentioned earlier. The thing that pops to my mind now about explaining death is stopping of the vital functions, that cannot be replaced.. Such as when the brain activity switches off. Or when the body dries out such as in plants... Death is for sure hard to define... Especially when a being can be reviewed even after all the life functions have been declared as dead. It is mysterious and not fully explainable still. And I am super glad that you made me wonder about it, above the just thinking how much I miss the living being when it passes away. From this point death could be a separation for the living, and the end for the decedent...
Glad I could put you in the state of re-questioning your views. Because of its hardness to explain is why I would like to hear other thoughts, and yours is on point about spiritual being.
I just read an interesting article.. I need to check out the author of the text and those sientists, but.... I will post a link so you can read it too! It is about the existence of a soul. I somehow think that we are the energy that is manipulating the matter. And when somehow the body collapse, we just evacuate :) disperse in the Universe. Hope you will not mind the link: http://runwonder.com/uncategorized/scientists-found-that-the-soul-doesnt-die-it-goes-back-to-the-universe.html
This reminds me of a child video where he is explaining what is god to him..spoiler..it is energy..
Interesting article btw

Death . According to me death means not people dead when this human body is no more , person died when he loose hope regarding something and he loose his confidence to do something which is possible by giving some affort to do it.

So you are talking here about the "spiritual death" if I got you right...
Unfortunately it can be sometimes worse than physical death as people around "dead" person get to suffer even more so.
Yes you are right. Physical death is just a human body is no more available. But what i tried say death means when person loose his confidence and his thing about this world is no more and then he become and just act like skeleton then its a kind of death for person

Death is the last days of the world and the first of the houses of the Hereafter, passing through the archway through which man passes from place to place.
Divine wisdom required that people should not be ignorant of the time and place of their death.
Perhaps the wisdom is that man is ready to complete death at any time.
Death remains the end facing the world, how it is.
Poetically put together. Agreed on all points with you.

Strictly speaking, I’d say death is the permanent separation of a soul from a body...but this is merely a change of state and no real ending.
The real “death” (as the ancients understood as well) is the “second death” when everyone who ever knew you has died and your name is no longer spoken...this I truly fear and is why I seek to purchase my immortality with the currency of ideas.
great and on point..but do plants, fungi, insects have soul? From your answer I would say that you think they do...
and I'd say taken to the next step..man, I need to try to understand the first one and you are already on the "second".
good luck with your immortality!
Just wanted to say thank you...knowing that I’ve got at least one upvote has really motivated me to try and post more. 😃
so its a win win situation...if that is motivation, I will extend for two weeks of upvotes...
You’re awesome 😎
Good effort, keep it up bro.

Oh you let me off the hook with an easy one this week!
Since I have somewhat of a medical background, death to me is when all brain activity stops and your heart has no detectable beat. By this definition, sometimes people can come “back to life,” although not in the way you might think. A defibrillator will only work if your heart is still “twitching” or “quivering” or otherwise out of rhythm. It won’t do a thing if your heart is completely stopped.
But for a funny answer, death also has a smell. It is the smell that comes out of me the day after a meal of burritos, chips, and spicy salsa washed down with copious amounts of cheap beer.
First of all, kudos for giving me a laugh..I know that smell...but on the other hand..you are right to some extent. Sushi and salad for example might be life that we ingest, and transform it into the death...
From medical point of view I can sort of agree, but viruses do not have brain, therefor, are they alive? Brain activity can stop, but hart can work...coma...them ones are alive as we are...
I think you meant that it stops(life) when cells cannot get ATP and start to die...reasons that do so will be avoided in this discussion as we both agree on why they do so..
EDIT: I know you were referring to human death in your example, but there is more to life and death than just explaining the way humans die
Well, I narrowed "passion" down to work, so I figured I would narrow "death" down to humanity. But you are absolutely correct, it's a broad term with a deceptively elusive definition. Love the question about viruses. They are creepy little buggers, that's for sure. I would argue that they are not alive, because they cannot reproduce on their own.
And to clarify, I meant death for humans is the lack of both heartbeat and brain waves, not one or the other.
If you want to pin me down on a universal definition of death, I guess I would say the ceasing of activity with no possibility of return.
I bet you knew when you were writing about viruses I will now mention bacteria as they can reproduce.
Ok, last sentence explained it..cheers
Death is like falling asleep and never waking up, as being born is awakening after never having been asleep.
A lot of wisdom in a small sentence...
Maybe the feeling is the same, but all other things are completely different...but thanks for your reply.
just this part I dont get
Did you mean in a way, to be awake after never sleeping before?
