It certainly is difficult, in this format, to construct a sentence carefully enough to provide all the nuances and disclaimers.

I, personally, DO 'doubt' that consciousness continues after the death of the body. I cannot 'prove' such, so I do not connect my personal...ummm... 'suspicions'... to what I feel appropriate to say to those who DO believe this in the context of their religion.

*IF* asked, or if approached by those seeking to convince ME, I will give my reasoning.

Waffling? Over-analyzing? *shrug*... It's just that I have spent so much time and study on these things for 50 years, that I have quite a list of fine distinctions assembled.

(and, as I have said before, if I am right about MY guess as to what happens after death, I don't even get to say "I told you so!")
