Why is it a reward to spend eternity as a mindless husk?

No fair doing a respawn to earlier in life.

You is who you is when you die.

Funny stuff.  Do you also laugh at cripples?

You're definitively unique; most caregivers in those types of environments are believers, no?

So, being disabled gives you leave to refer to Alzheimer's patients as 'droolers'?

I have had family members die from it.

I have watched people go from vibrant, intelligent,caring people turn into mindless, drooling lumps of flesh.

If this is the work of some supreme being - then the joke is on us.

Gallows humor is all I got.

I thought this thread was going to suggest that god could use memory loss as a safeguard against the seemingly unavoidable tedium of infinity. Forgetting that you’ve been doing the same thing or anything for that matter for 50 trillion years would be a blessing indeed.

If he's going to take out all the parts of me that he doesn't like, leaving only what he approves of, I may as well have alzheimers. I am the combination of all my parts. If you strip away too much, especially without my consent, then it won't be me in heaven. It'll just be a stripped down facsimile that calls itself Chad. That's not what I call a reward.

Well, you are the 32nd Chad so...

Unfortunately, yes.

I am lucky in one respect whereby I work the overnight shift, so I rarely ever see the family who visit mainly during the daytime. Sometimes if we know a resident is about to pass we will call the family and they will come in to visit overnight, but I have yet to experience that. Also, as part of the resident bill of rights, we are to respect their religious beliefs, but honestly I have not encountered any of them speaking of their religious beliefs if they have any. Although, some of them do have religious art and memorabilia in their rooms, but the subject of religion is simply never brought up.
