But what do you have to say, Erin, on a particular comment by someone on the Is There Life After Death thread:

I believe death is the end of everything, and our "soul" is nothing more than some extraneous neuronic connections. Animals have got fewer of them, therefore they concentrate only on basic needs. However, human beings enjoy the luxury to focus on some non-essential concepts. That's it for me, nothing more. This does not say that life is not enjoyable: actually, this says that every day that passes must be fully enjoyed, because eventually my friend, there's nothing out there.

After reading your blog entry on the topic, I had to say I was really relieved and assured that on the very day I left my cocoon that is my body behind, there'll be a conscious road laid ahead of me and I could go on to explore the unknown... the infinite possibilities...
But I was really really put off by this comment and I'm suffering from severe thanatophobia right now.
HELP!
