Death

When do you get old? That's a good question especially when you get into your fifties. I'm 51 actually and this is very interesting., I see many people just riding out their lives without an outward concern about the 'hereafter'.
Well this is just nutsy. For crying out loud. You do know (and i'll prove you wrong in a minute) that you are going to die.
"yeah and what can we do. Nothing. just pray to the right god and hope for the best"
Well i think not.
It's been one of my life's quests to know (not just 'oh i believe and don't bother with the proof because you'll just hurt my head if I'm wrong) what happens after you die. So far the stats aren't that good.
Reincarnation - 5
Heaven - 1
Other cool things - 3
Oblivion - 10^15 which is pretty high

OK you say you are going to die. Yup seems that way. But do you have PROOF that you are going to die.
Everyone else did...or maybe they did. One or two may have figured it out.
But to tell you the truth, there is no proof that you are going to die. Nope, not until you do. then the rest of us will say: "Yup she died, guess it was just bad luck. But not ME!"
So we THINK we are going to die, and we THINK there is pretty good evidence of such. But when you get down to it, what will happen to your 'soul/personality/essence/'me''?
Well bloody well no one knows. And it's really about time. Come on! THis question "what happens after you die" has been a corner stone to all our existence. It has created religious wars, territorial wars, and quite simply some very hot wars where the king says "oh bugger, she's really hot but in that other king's hands. I'm going to die anyway and no reward except some harpists which, i don't like harps anyway, so let's go get the babe, do her a good shagging then see what happens next."
No D'UH.
Well I'm in the search for LAD Life After Death.
Interested in joining me? I'm 51 and almost 1/2 way done with this life.
And that last statement was part of the clue.
Got any clues yourself?
