Oh, my dear George, we are told constantly that there is life after death. We just have a hard time believing it because the evidence of the physical body after death also has much to teach us.

I am grateful for all that the 'evidence' of death does to illuminate our hearts. When a tiny bird, who has never flown, leaps from the branch, how wonderful is that?

If we were told, and we believed, immediately, how would we learn? What challenge would this life pose for us?

We would give up when times get tough. We would not be willing to accept change.

Life is change, movement, learning, expression, and the sorrows and joys make a life which is richer and fuller than one which seems always 'safe' and 'secure' -- do you agree?

At the same time as we realize that there IS NO DEATH, we become incredibly grateful for what we have received. That is how I see it now, and that is how I see what is coming for each of us.

love, blink

Bingo!

Same as there won't be a Science based on materialistic dogmas. Both religion and science will merge into one form of... well.. let's call it Knowledge.
This process is not easy and very lengthy. Most likely we won't see the merge in our lifetime, unless something will boost it up in the near future.
