Ideas of post-death like Rainbow Bridge are NOT comforting to me. Just let it go, let it die. lol.

I don't think we go anywhere when we die. "I" die. Bury up my flesh, believe what you like, ....

If I can be a ghost, I'll come back and haunt those who ask where we go. I'll be a ghost who plays tricks. Yeah, that'd be fun.

The dead are meant to be in the land of the dead. The living to pay attention to the living.


' Why, if the Soul can fling the Dust aside,
And naked on the Air of Heaven ride,
Were't not a Shame--were't not a Shame for him
In this clay carcass crippled to abide?'

Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam

We've only one dog when our children were young. It was a golden retriever. Ever since then, I've wanted to get a dog, and promised myself one soon after I retired, but with my frequent travels, it would be unfair, so I'm waiting till I settle down.

Yeah, whatever. So anyway, what is Satan to you? Depends on where you stand? A construct of fiction? A state of mind? A great spiritual guide? Can you even dumb it down so a mere mortal can understand your definition?

That is quite the question. To answer would be to completely hi-jack the thread, though I am flattered that you would be willing to divert the entire theme of a thread to learn about li'l 'ol me.
Gosh.
Perhaps in a different thread.
Suffice it to say my answer would have absolutely nothing to do with death or any putative life to follow.

Suffice it to say that I fully expected a dodge. But a hearty congratulations on upholding your civic responsibility in defending the continuity of the thread. What a public servant.

A dodge. lol that's cute.
If I were to ask you about football, it would have as much relevance to this thread as what you asked me.
It's not a dodge (a word I'm sure you must be quite familiar with by now) to not allow ones-self to be lured off topic by someone with an obvious agenda.
Start a new thread if you care so much, I'll answer you there.

So Satan has as much to do with an afterlife as does football? LOL that's cute. Hey man I gotta give you this - you're twisted, but you ain't stupid...

Passage being the semantical equivalent of 'die' ... metamorphosis would also apply.
Judgement is ongoing

I'm sorry, ask 'em what? I know Jim Thorpe played football, but this was sort of an obscure reference, don't you think?

Your question stipulates a belief in an afterlife. Assuming the properties of an afterlife would, to some degree, be influenced by the passions of this and prior lives. Ergo, to attain the most accurate answer, ask a deceased football hall of famer.

Then your question was mere sophistry and your response to my answer ad hominem in nature based on intelectual bigotry ... or just intelectually deficent?

That is high praise indeed considering the source Smile

But yes, you've got it. If you seriously wish to delve into that other subject, I would be more than happy to indulge in the apropriate venue.

Don't worry about it, "Doc". I'm not sure I'm comfortable with your understanding of who's humoring who, here.
