LordShadowfire "What if there's nothing?"
Well, if we could prove that to be the case, then that at least would remove the uncertainty of what comes next after we die, which would be less frightening (in this life) of not having any idea of what to expect. If there is nothing, then it would be just like it was before I was born, and I have no recollections about that, good or bad.
Or we can hope with Job:
"But man dieth, and wasteth away: yea, man giveth up the ghost, and where is he?
As the waters fail from the sea, and the flood decayeth and drieth up:
So man lieth down, and riseth not: till the heavens be no more, they shall not awake, nor be raised out of their sleep.
O that thou wouldst hide me in the grave, that thou wouldst keep me secret, until thy wrath be past, that thou wouldst appoint me a set time, and remember me!
If a man die, shall he live again? all the days of my appointed time will I wait, till my change come.
Thou shalt call, and I will answer thee: thou wilt have a desire to the work of thine hands."
