I credit YOU for the lovely avatar, and Liv and Ammi for educating me on the other 'techno' stuff.

I believe one thing, you believe another and you're no more likely to dissuade me of what I believe than I am to dissuade you. Stale mate. Mate.

I've heard the 'it's the pain relief' argument in relation to those terminally ill in their final moments rallying. It happened to my father and it was unnerving but gave us time to say goodbye,the serenity that swept across his face, the essence we felt at that moment and for several hours after wasn't due to any medication he or indeed we had taken, it was truly inexplicable... I like logic as much as the next person but unless you'd experienced that situation first hand it's impossible to attempt to rationalise the events.

Thankfully i enjoy hot resorts so i had a great time down there in hell and was disappointed to leave until i was reborn and sent back up to earth. Once reborn and after lengthy chats to my alien friends i then followed my new parents beliefs. I then became a true muslim to the core. Then after i blew myself up and after raveshing 57 virgins i was then reborn as Santa Claus. Then i dropped a few presents off here and there for a while for the kids but then got caught with some randy woman by her husband on xmas eve under the tree after one too many hognogs. 43 knife wounds later i was then reborn as Mr Blobby. It was a short life but i did have a lot of fun talking gibberish on saturday night tv and falling on people just for laughs! I have recently died once again and when i do come back i am hoping that this time i come back as the Eurovision Entry for the UK and hope to win the show to restore faith in the great british public.
My old mate Johnny on the LSD again.

not really, he is supposed to have said something and it means nothing, its not evidence for anything.

if you wish to concoct a story to go with it that is great and if it helps you fantastic but its not what I am saying or arguing about

Its not either or, either.

50,000 people die every day and their last words are myriad.

Its like cold reading, you just ignore them all until one fits with the view you wish to have


But it means nothing and is evidence for nothing - its just that we allegedly heard about this as he is famous. That day 5000 people could have said "oh sh1t there is nothing but black..." or "oh no this is it there is nothing ahead but non existence" but we did not hear about that.

Good post, I agree.

Okay, I'm going to sit down and breathe into a paper bag for a minute...

Yeah, I understand all that. I'm just mystified by your crusade to take comfort from people just because you don't believe it. I mean, it's not like you're ever going to find out, you're far too wicked ever to die.

By Gad Sir you are incorrigible. But so are we on this subject.

The problem with what dead people said just as they die is the fact that they cant come back to refute it


which is some ways kind of solves the mystery in its self

What's those Meatloaf lyrics? Oh. I remember....

'You took the words right out of my mouth'.

Kizzy will be the one needing to sit down - Kirk applaudig her, and Livia commending her. Is the 'Goodwill and Peace To All Mankind' spirit already in the air?

Yet, what if they are not allowed to come back?

Wouldn't this destroy the meaning and reason for 'Faith'? It would be akin to a lonely poverty stricken guy proving that he'd just won the EuroLottery - He'd suddenly be swamped by tossers wanting to be his friend.

Faith is faith.

No! It might be LT standing on the edge of a cliff trying to lure you.

Faith is faith.
This would be bad news for all those who "have seen a ghost"


( and they dont care if you dont believe them as they know what they saw )
