You think there is no rememberance of your life? You think there is no record? You think you will peacefully melt away into the dust of the earth in annhilation.
The problem is, Jaywill, is that there is no way of knowing with the least bit of certainty either way until we cross that threshold for ourselves. At the end of the day when all things are said and done, the bottom line is that it comes down to two opposing sets of "beliefs." Onifre believes he will melt away in to oblivion and you believe there will be an accounting of ourselves on the day of our judgment. There is only one immutable fact in that, and that is that you both believe in something based on some superficial evidence. And that's only because we just don't know. We are no more equipped to answer that question than when the first human pondered it.

Maybe it is and maybe it isn't. Again, no way of truly knowing. I'm sure you'll tell us all about your relationship with Jesus and how you know he's real, but we don't know what is wishful thinking on your part and what is actual. So, again, we are at an impasse.
