Thread Name: BS: Why should we die?
Subject: RE: BS: Why should we die?
Well, the reason it seems so hard is because the question contains a false premise of great importance. It depends (not to sound like William Jefferson Clinton) on the meaning of "we". In the deepest way there is to know that meaning, we do not, actually, die. We just change our costumes, shucking our old bodies like dusty, worn-out smocks.

It would be kind of like posing the deep question "why don't we think", when it seems we do. Hard to answer and endlessly irritatin'. :>)
