I suggest trying to check your words first before posting. She's not the only one that isn't a full-human here. There might be others who register here and find themselves more offended. It would lessen the chaotic starting to spread from this thread (If you know what I mean ^^').

I already apologized to those I offended. I guess I offended myself too in a way. Either case, I'm sorry.

It's an honest mistake and he apologized already. Let's go back to the topic. ^^

Okay. As far as the Spirit World goes, I realized there are many doors, many dimensions, each as vast as the next. Some creatures I recognized from video games in the Human world. It soon occured to me that in some dimensions the beings created in the video games are mirror avatars of the ones in the spirit world. One such being I met was Ryu Hayabusa, who is famously portrayed in popular Ninja Gaiden and DOA games. At first I was beyond disbelief, as I didn't think there was a connection, until recently afterwards I learned that the games apparently show what happeded sometime in the past of the Spirit World. I know, kinda outlandish, but I swear to you it is true.

Who is Ryu Hayabusa? Sorry I really don't know.

Also one must remember that beings created in the mind may gain strength when shared with others, thus new world being created that are only accessed through the gates of things such as books and games.

Like I said, outlandish. At first I too thought it absurd, but through meditation, I felt it after a while. But before I get off topic since that was just an example. Meeting the deities from other faiths, learning so many about the Realms that I've only heard through many stories from Bibles, and other ancient lore, I can't help but feel as if I'm a part of something greater. Maybe serving Amatersu Omikami is my purpose for being. I may know what I am now, but I still wonder who I truly am despite what I know.

If a man got blind because of an accident and died later on, will he regain his sight again in his second life? How about those who are born blind, deaf etc. will they become normal at their second life?
I think I'll stop lurking for a moment and take part as well for once.
Personally I guess I'm one of the few here that doesn't believe in life after death, or in fact any particular spiritual beliefs, despite how much I want to. As I see it, when I die I will simply cease to exist. I don't find this uncomfortable at all, but I would very much love to be proven wrong when the time comes, and discover that there's something more driving the dull mathematical world I know. Or earlier even. That'd be good too. I simply haven't witnessed anything to suggest such.
As for the blindness thing, in the limited opinion I can give, I'd presume unless there was some form of spiritual defect that could affect the man's sight, a new body in a second life would be a separate matter and unaffected. I don't know anything of how the world would look like to a spirit.

I'm posting about the first post from Rhaine_Patrick, if you got to your final point already, I'm sorry but I didn't have the time to read the full discussion yet (gonna try to go back and read it after).
For me, there is a soul and there is life after death, as you called it. But I'm a bit too much into mathematics, physics and quantum/metaphysics. So let me first say that we are all energy, but I believe we have some consicousness (we all may agree everyone has/had an ego at some point, at least). Anyway, to what is important.
A person, as you said, that was born normal (able to see) and lost his eyes at some point will eventually die blind. After that, I believe the person will be immediately blind, since it was one of the impressions* the person had from the world before dying. After some time, as the person loses its human impressions it will start to see again. (see note below)
On the other hand, someone naturally blind might be able to see after death or not, that can result from a person that would still believe to be blind by the time they were to be reborn or any other reason that I haven't come to know yet. For this person, after death, they can see normally, go through the same way the above case would, or just keep on not seeing for whatever reason.
*: By impressions I tried to me that we carry or human traces or karmas or paradigms, hope this makes enough sense for everyone. But yeah, as we keep on living on the spiritual/after death world, we may come to lose or human thoughts and turn into a more spiritual energetic being.
As I just said, something else that I already read about and I believe to be true is that some people may look exactly like they were right after dying, but with time, they might lose their human looks, like if I short brown haired, that will change because it was just a human physical way I used to look at myself, but that is not truly what I am, assuming we are energy based beings. But from here I cannot yet say what we might come to look like because I don't have any memory from the Other World or wherever I've been before here.
Did I make sense? Sorry if it is too big, hope I could be of some help =]

This human body of mine is but a shell, it may wither and perish. Be that as it may I myself am immortal and shall never die. I only reside in this human body temporarily and upon its death will return to my Creator, alive and well.
