Thanks for the post AG. It's long, but worth the read.

Epistemology and eschatology are topics one has thought about since, well, one started to think. A very close friend of mine, she's a Ph.D in clinical Psychology and Philosophy, once told me that after all of her learning, experience, practice and thought...we're mere "star fragments, who really 'know' nothing"...but, can only believe.

Or, to throw out a line from one of the old "Grand Funk Railroad" songs: "If you're good, you live forever. If you're bad, you die when you die"..

I guess when we shed these mortal coils, we'll find out.

It's great to hear from you, Mustang! I'm very glad you enjoyed the read.

Thank you so much for sharing the wisdom! IMHO, your very close friend hit a home-run with this statement:

we're mere "star fragments, who really 'know' nothing"...but, can only believe.

I pondered on that for awhile and it occurs to me that with every subject of thought - from math to philosophy - we rely on beliefs. To change one's underlying belief is to enter a whole 'nother world of realities, boundaries and possibilities.

As you say, when we “shed these mortal coils” we’ll see. Hugs!
