Think about it: How would you know you were alive if you haven't been dead before? You see, death is not nothingness. Death is simply the name that we have given to that which is unconscious. Sound is not really pure sound, it's sound/silence. Light, also, is light/darkness. They are waves that have crests and troughs. In the same way death is just the 'off' part of the wave of consciousness. So you see, death IMPLYS life! They go together. Death doesn't just win forever. Because if you say: "Well I'm going to be nothing after I die. It's just going to be a dark nothingness for eternity..." Then what about the nothingness before you were born?

You haven't really explained why you dislike my comments. Your last post is condesending. I have no problem with people expressing criticism and thus I am not being hypocritical. You and I have a disagreement. I don't think that you are necessarily intolerant of criticism but there are people who don't take criticism well. I have no problem with constructive criticism btw. I have not stated that I think that you should spend special effort to answer my questions. Again you are likely confusing me with someone else. Have a nice day. $ Dale
