Death in the Bible

“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.

In other words, my dear reader, if there were life after death, it will not be the life of man or the life of beasts. It will be the life of dust.

In the meantime, if God created man in his own image and likeness, and man in the end will just turn into dust for all eternity, then God must be made of Dust too. Now can you really imagine yourselves praying to a supernatural Dust for the salvation of your silly, dusty, impoverished souls? Poch Suzara
