Life After Death Malarkey
When I say that there is no life after death, I am quickly told: isn’t that a little depressing? Well, isn’t it more depressing if you believe in life after death? Please read your own bible? “The dead know not anything, neither have they any more a reward for the memory of them is forgotten.” Eccl. 9:5 Can you also imagine eternal existence without a mind and the capacity to think. With what ears will you hear? With what eyes will you see? With what mouth, lips, and voice box will you speak? With what hand will you feel? What teeth? With what brain will you comprehend? AGAIN a verse from the BIBLE confirms: “For the fate of the sons of men and the fate of the beasts is the same; as one dies, so dies the other; they all have the same breath, and man has no advantage over the beasts; for all is vanity. All go to one place; all are from dust, and all turn to dust again." Ecclesiastes, 3:19-20 Never for one moment would you think of your continued life other than in your present form. You want to think that your body, your personality, will be intact. You would find it disgusting that in the after life you will a piece of dust floating in the cosmos. You want to be you. This is what is so pathetic about life after death. You are what is stored in your brain cells. When that rots after you die, all is gone. Your unique individual personality is no more. It's caput! Esta Jodido! At death the cerebral functions cease; there is no more thought process, no reward, no memory, no knowledge, and no access to this world. Death terminates an individual's interaction with this physical dimension of existence. The Bible again clearly states that there's no life after death: “As the cloud is consumed and vanishes away, so he that goeth down to the grave shall come up no more.” Job 7:9 That is why it makes more sense to value your life in the here and now. Life is for the living. Go for it; get to the exercise. In the meantime, never belittle the power of your brain – a three pound mass you can hold in your little hand that can discover the galaxies of a trillion stars. Poch Suzara

This is why, before you die you should put in your wills that you will donate your whole body to a medical university for scientific research. Or be an organ donor.
All those bodies rotting away in the cemeteries could have been used to further medical and scientific knowledge. And our future doctors need cadavers.
