If one day everything is just gone, then why do we experience life as it is? Most people have their first memory at around age 2-3. You have no recollection of your life as an infant, so it seems to you that one day you just pop into existence because you can't remember anything prior. So if one day all of our memories cease to exist, then how is it that we are living life now? Wouldn't it work the same way as it did as an infant? Where I would not remember all these years and just cease to exist? If that's the case then we shouldn't even experience ourselves as "alive". Thoughts?
Better?
Guess that is why it made no sense. you're asking why we experience life since we have no memories after death? That is pure nonsense, lay off the magic mushrooms.
