I think that this idea that YOU will rise from the dead REALLY plays on the inherent ego of man.

Don't get me wrong. I FULLY embrace the idea of eternal. I AM an eternal being. I have no question about that.

But this ancient story - I don't know - I guess it feeds off folks who fear death - when again the only thing as natural as dying is being born. They are connected.

So the idea to side-step that makes no sense to me.

Please explain why this message is being reported.
