We are one of the select few species that are consciousness with our existence and unfortunately, the understanding that one day it will be time to say goodbye to this place we call Earth. Does that alone give us the right and/or opportunity to gain eternal life? We communicate with others in this world through a "machine" that is our body, but to communicate with God can only be done from within. It is that feeling from within that desires to carry into eternity, once our body can no longer cope within the gravities of this world. As much as I want to believe you that there is life after death, I don't see how or why we get beneficial treatment from those organisms that came before us. I suppose we will all find the answer to this puzzling question when we meet our ultimate demise. My two cents, for what it's worth.Alexhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09827935895514517860noreply@blogger.com
