What is it about life you find so depressing? and why don't you believe there is a God? What makes you think that the universe let alone earth was formed by a Big Bang? I can tell you i asked the very same questions you did and honestly i found an answer, that there is a God and that he <Created> the universe and that there is a Heaven for those who accept the free gift of salvation. I'm sorry for going all bible bashing so to speak but you're no accident nor incident that you're alive in this day and age. If you're curious about anything please feel free to ask i will be glad to help you answer your questions.

It's just something you go through, everyone has a phase when they question their meaning. Or at least I did. You'll get through it and start to enjoy life a lot more. To be honest though, the cause of your depression isn't these thoughts of yours, it's other things in your life, maybe school or family related (or maybe you just get scared of things easily). You need to get past this, by improving your environment, to get to that stage of enjoying life.
No one can prove where people go when they die. Atheist's will say that you rot in the ground. Christians (and other religious people) will say your soul goes elsewhere. Neither side can prove that the other side is wrong.
The big bang could have been created due to the collision of two membranes. Imagine the universe colliding with another universe and releasing a lot of energy in an explosion. Hence string, and membrane theory. Perhaps it goes through a cycle of expansion and crunching.
Perhaps god existed forever, and always has.
The question you're asking are called universal questions. You probably don't think that the people in your class think about these issues. They probably don't. Maybe they never will. What's important to know is that you have to choose your own answer to each question. A christian will have blind faith, where he believes everything in the bible to be true, every contradiction, every illogical hole can be fixed by faith. In much the same, although a dissimilar way, you must realize that you can not prove whether there is a heaven or not, and choose what you think to be more likely. Talk to people, teachers, family, friends, and discover your own course and purpose in life. If none of these work, talk to a doctor, or a psychiatrist. Depression is a terrible thing.
Please don't mind the other douches in this thread. Maturity is hard to find on a mainly teen board, and it hasn't gotten better since sc2, and you may have more luck going to a philosophy thread. Though those guys are kind of stuffy and have their own flaws too.
What nobody is telling you ITT is that there is no god.
BTW, you can't feel rotting. You're dead. Being worm-food isn't a big deal, really. You weren't alive billions of years before you were born and you're no worse off because of it.

yeah it does. i one stared it too.
I don't understand. Maybe this blog is shitty, but you certainly aren't contributing to it other than being a jerk.
I think everyone goes through a time in their life like this so most of us can relate. I'm sure you have something better to say than "ROFL I AUTO ONE STARED THIS SHIT". I know this is just a blog but these posts bother me so much.
Very normal thoughts to have. I had similar thoughts when I was around 14 trying to decide if I actually believed in god. Eventually I found out I didn't.
I think its more weird that some people don't ever have these thoughts and just believe whatever they grew up believing.

It's actually incredibly normal. Once you come to terms with that and stop being emo, I think you'll be fine. Instead of thinking about random hypotheticals, like what happens if you were to die... try to think about this; "what am I going to do right now"

I think you are confusing depression and curiosity to be honest.
