Profound brilliance stimulating engaging We certainly as hell would have to rethink and contemplate every single decision or choice we make. Based on the fate and consequences we have to face ever after. As it also means we also then know who and what God is 8 out of 7

You totally get this one Christopher, to know for sure any outcome about afterlife, would totally nullify my existence as I know it, but then again I'm agnostic, cheers David

It's pretty much all we can be sure of Jan, and to be honest IMO life would be pointless if we knew any more, cheers David

Better to be sure of heaven than die not knowing for sure, David...

I understand Jo and I respect your Christian belief, I'm agnostic myself so I'm really not sure of anything, so it makes me think about Islamic suicide bombers they are sure they are going to heaven, hope you understand my point of view, as I do yours, I find it all so confusing, cheers David

I think your right Darlene, knowing would pretty much render our lives pointless, some believe they do know what's in store, others believe there is nothing, which in turn is the same thing, because nobody knows for sure, I keep an open mind and try enjoy the here and now, thank you so much for stopping by, cheers David
