I've given this considerable thought and I am no closer at arriving at a satisfactorily answer than when I began years ago.
What happens after we die?
Why would life be worth living without eternity?
That's an interesting question, because I preceive eternity as I understand it, to be quite boring; you know everything, can go anywhere, will never die. In essence, in video game parlance, you are in 'GOD mode'.
Where's the fun or satisfaction in that? No risk, no reward, no defeat and the subsequent lessons.....
