Life is a autocatakinetic system...and then you die

"Life" is the opposite of "die."

Of the two types of autocatakinetic systems, only one can survive the withdrawal of the "heat source" (energy input), persistently over fairly long time frames.

But I digress.

"Die" pertains to the material aspect of the living being of any description. Given that Life does not appear to be a material thing (at least science has not isolated or measured it yet), it may not be taken for granted that it is expunged with the passing of the physical body.

This is the message propagated to mankind by means of the Scriptures, that is the Holy Bible of Judeo-Christian testimony. Its basis is revelation and reason -- both divine at their source.

JMHO FWIW. Good night, woofie.
