so if you could, and you might possibly would....
If the chance came up for you to leave behind this world to be transported into some either virtual or second true reality where your true animalistic, anthropomiorphic form was released and that was your new body, would you take that chance and do it, knowing you would be unable to talk with your friends from this world again, and live with the pain of missing them, as you would still have your mind in the state that it currently is.
well?
I would, because i know that even though it would hurt, there would still be people coming and maybe one of them i would know, maybe one of them i would end up loving, possibly even far deeper than any one i knew in this life.

i don't think i'd take it i'd give up every thing materialistic to be my fursona, but not my family, i could never stand to leave them behind to greve for me, if i had to die then i'd be ok with that as long as i didn't have any old family to leav behind, i couldn't stand to make my family to go through that because i felt like doing something like that, i'd give up college to help my family.
-
hmm.... i guess i should add that it would probably be a personality/soul split. as there would be conciously moving you here, knowing that there is a you out there somewhere, and the you there, not realy knowing what is happening, but enjoying your life in this paradise, growing to know more people, starting as a newborn and growing up through the stages of development.

I'm totally torn, I would love that, but i love scyler too much, so if he couldn't go too, i'd stay.
-
theres no one here i truly love but God, and hes not on this world anyway.
Id do eet. ^uu^
-
Oh jeez...
I'm far to obsessed over my own plans and potential in THIS world. If I wasn't so adamant upon my own success, and that my rightful place on earth is to serve God, then I'd do it. Not to say I don't love my family, but life's tough everywhere. A new start with the knowledge I have now would put me off very well. I'm horribly afraid of hurting people, either myself or others, but leaving it all behind (though a weak decision) is a decision I could make.
-
^ you are so correct. lol and probably what you said is the correct choice.
but the thought of being your fursona still rocks out loud >.<

In your last qualification all of that is a 'maybe'. Another maybe is that maybe you never find anyone and you end up regreting that descision for the rest of your life. It all boils down to stick with what you know or brave the unknown. I am unadventurous and would stick with normal life.
-
As of now... Yea. I mean, I would cry my eyes out if I had to leave my friends, but I would KNOW that I would make friends there, and I'm living in a constant state of bordom... I would totally go if I had a chance to say goodbye to everyone. Wait...
??? Can you have computers and video games there?
-
I"d probably do it..knowing my best friend in RL would be right behind me xD ((he's a fur too)) same with a few others from Highschool..i would so totally go..plus i'd have the chance to meet other furs I might've known form before
-
i would give all my money away to do that, and burn my house down... and my neighbors house.... and all the houses on my block, but never give up my friends
i wonder if there would be any kind of connection like if the internet when through both worlds
-
That would make it a whole lot easier! ^_^

Don't talk about Religion on the Forums. It could offend people... like me.
That goes for you, too, LAE.
Would I throw away my current life in exchange to be a Japanese arctic wolf or Australian red fox?
Probably.
Sure, I'd miss her, but I could always meet someone new.
And, y'know, my red fox doesn't have M.D.D. :D
I have, what, five friends? Heh...
I'd always meet someone new. Always.

it seeems every one is pretty much split down the middle on this, but.. remember what i said?
there would be conciously moving you here, knowing that there is a you out there somewhere, and the you there, not realy knowing what is happening, but enjoying your life in this paradise, growing to know more people, starting as a newborn and growing up through the stages of development.
there would be two you's, so you actually wouldn't have to leave any one behind, just fallasleep on one side and wake up in another, one the others dream, both reality.
-
can people not read or do they just not read everything!?!?!?!?
Benoit and every one else, i've said this several times now and i guess i have to reinforce the fact that you'd be leaving nothing behind. you as you are now would fall sleep and wake up there, being born. and ehwn you fall asleep there, you wake here, for however long it is you wake, it doesn't matter. you'd be more or less in a constant dream state. all your memories here, would be there. the ones you make there would shift as it is your mind, your soul that is in both bodies. please remember this please people.
-
afraid of big brother taking ypu out for thought crime then? because it's just as simple as thinking why i why not in the ninth edition of the newspeak dictionary when it was in the eighyj... and why is the eight version thicker, and why does the ninth have fewer words? and why des issue ten have even leess words that are real and ten times as many that are reay justtwelve that are entirely incompehensible and un pronouncable?
the question was and still is, if you could live your dreams, would you, as long as you could wake up and be you?
-
Yeah, but I'd rather kick humanity out the window.
If you haven;t noticed yet, I'm not the most popular guy at my school.
I'd rather not be, because all the "popular" guys are backstabbers and *modtackled*

=s Hey, I'm not trying to offend anyone, please understand that. It is perfectly fine for me to mention the truth, as in, the truth that this is what I believe. I never said that it was true, just that I believe it is. You don't have to follow. I know the religion rules very well, as I've Administrated on my own forums. It's touchy, but if everyone's peaceful it can be a great freedom. Now, I'm posting this for not my own benefit, but all of us. If this forum is all about Furry Pride and freedom of choice, let me choose to express what I believe, especially if I'm not imposing it or calling it truth. In my travels through forums, that's one thing I know for certain, and here of all places should respect that. ^_^ Trust me that I wouldn't do anything to offend someone else. I said it in my post, I'm horribly afraid of hurting others, and worse yet, myself.
And also... #
# Do not post religious posts that are meant to bash other religions or convert people to your religion; only serious, polite religious topics are allowed.
I believe I'm well in-line with the rules. People who are too afraid of offending ideas, can end up offending more than those who believe strongly about a particular idea. Keep that in mind, please.
However, I do have something contribute that's an interesting idea to the topic. If this choice would allow us to wake up somewhere else being born with all our memories, yet share our soul here with humanity, then how can we be certain this choice isn't already made, and what we are, are the other sides of the equation? What if we're the human lives left behind, and ourselves have already gone 'furry' to so speak?
An interesting thought.
And if I misinterpreted it, and you really meant we lived in both worlds consciously at the same time, well, I doubt there's someone who wouldn't do it here. It seems like a very win-win to me.
Question already answered while I'm typing this. XD In that case, it would be a resounding yes. To not choose it would be to miss out on my opportunities. I've spent many a night wishing (And sometimes praying, if you aren't offended by me saying so. ;-) ) that I could experience what I think through my dreams. Though I have yet to.
Maybe I should catch a fever. >.>....
-
And there we go.
I never said you were bashing anyone's religion, where I stand, you, but more so Nihil, are saying that your religion is better than the others. *twitch*
I choose not to be a Christian for one reason only.
Proof.
We don't have proof that God or Noah or Adam or Eve exist.
We don't have proof he created us.
Oh, and just so you don't mistake me.
Evolution is a load of cr@p.

The religious discussion stops now, or the topic will be locked.
-
*AHEM!*
In my opinion the only way this would be worth it is if i could take my loving mate with me, if he isn't with me nothing can make up for it....
-
absolutley. but one thing,
can i chose to only stay in the furry world?
cus the life i have now is kinda boring. the only fun thing to do is being here,be with friend and playing vg.
-
Can you choose what time peroid your in? (Futristic Japan, Mideval Europe, etc)
-
The world would be made to suit every ones interests, a sort of modgepodge of places, futuristic yes, ancient yes, far more advanced than now, yes, anarchistic, yes, true republic, yes, truely comunist, yes. religous, no religion. everything in perfect balance and harmony, no war. no hate, just love and friendship. a litteral heaven.
For the best comparrison of this world, for any of you out there who are fans of the webcomic Jack, (-Link removed-) this world would be much like the heaven of that comic, each persons is different, though you can interact with people from other heavens.
Do not link to sites that contain mature content.

OH! *packs bags* See ya, real world! But you can't take anything with you...? I would still go anyway, and tell my friends that I'm going on a trip and they could join me. That'd take care of everything. I would rather it being that I died or disapeared than another me in this world, you know?
-
*doesn't take anything 'cause there's a 360 and Left 4 Dead in his house in the literal heaven with his name on it... and maybe everyone else's from the forum* :D
-
To leave a world where my family and best friends are to live in a fantasy where i know no one, have no family with me, can't even SPEAK to people i knew in the other world all, and just for my real fursona? Theres a possible chance i would but then theres the greater chance i would never EVER do it. My family, my crushes, my best friends, and just in general people i know would be to hard to give up. Now..if i had to give up materialistic things to be my fursona why not...but just flat out leaving this world for another one...nah
-
I guess it all depends on the quality of life you live here. Me? I'm ok here, but it would be better there. I don't have any crushes/loves here, but I would like to tie up some loose ends with my ex.
