The afterlife will be like jumping into the far future, a million years from now, when we are...pure thought. References. p.79 Prospects of Eternity, russell... and Chpt. 4, Man into Superman, Ettinger at the end of the chapter.

I made up this idea... The afterlife will be like jumping into the far future, a million years from now, when we are... BASED upon the discussions in the references I cited. It makes the afterlife something to LOOK FORWARD TO... the biggest problem now being the TRANSITION called "dying"... which is horrible. Ageing is bad enough but dying is a hundred times worse because it can be prolonged and awful.

Once through the dying passage, however, there's light at the end of that tunnel, quite literally, where long gone friends and relatives meet us.
