Interesting Concepts and Thought Provoking Questions

For the most part this is just an opinion-based thread, I'm just looking for interesting, vague, thought-provoking, and abstract questions.  I find it rather therapeutic to just ponder complicated questions and I have a couple of my own if anyone would like to give them some thought.  If you have any thoughts you'd like to share please post back and let me know.

First off lets get the big existance and reality thoughts out of the way because I'm sure we've all heard them a million times before:
-Are we truly a reality or do we each perceive our own universe?

-Is time linear and if so, what do you think about people who experience deja vu or seem to have premonitions?

-Religion (controversial I know, lets keep it civil) if only one religion is 'right' then which is it, and are all of the rest of the population of the world living under false beliefs?


Then some more fun and whimsical questions:
-Do we have untapped powers? e.g some people seem to have psychic capabilities, others have 'unnatural' strength or intelligence etc.

-What if the afterlife is only reserved for atheists, that would be rather ironic wouldn't it? Those that don't believe in an afterlife are doomed to be wrong, and those who do believe have no afterlife waiting for them.

-If reality is what you make of it, and you believe something with every fibre of your being, is it reality even if you are the ONLY person to believe?

-Does our species have unlimited potential or have we nearly reached our peak?

-What happens after death?  A religious afterlife?  An endless sleep?  Ghosts?  Reincarnation?  What is consciousness really?

Hopefully I have given you something interesting to think about, let me know your thoughts if you'd like and a good day to you all!
