@ Ace and FNM I'm not afraid of death not because it comes to all, because I'm only going to lose my physical body for a while and my spirit will be with God until the day my spirit and my new body are united. As far as salvation goes FNM there are no works that can get you there, only one's faith in Christ as savior, that's why christians can actually look forward to death when there lives are drawing to an end. Christians do not live in a state of delusion they live in a state of hope, the state that is a positive, knowing that God will take care of them.
Ace how do you know you will have another day let lone get old, that getting old thing is just a way of distracting yourself from the fear of dying to soon. When you get older,that is if you do, how do you know you will feel the same as you do now, by what you state you believe death is a long ways off for you and this makes you comfortable with the idea of death, but when you get older and death is truely close how do you know you want feel that death is coming to soon. You are right when you say that death will put you beyond space and time, your body like mine and everyone elses will be worm food, and when those billions of years pass if your unbelief in God is wrong will seem like only a few minutes of an everlasting eternity.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
