Welcome aboard, I'm not sure that the two things have anything to do with each other, myself.  

Quote:You would say your parents came before you, and their parents before them. But, going back like that you can see there is no 1 beginning. This is crazy.
Why is it crazy?  That is what happened, right?  

Quote:This gives me great confidence that the power of one body prevails to make its own permanent heaven in the afterlife.  
What power of the body, and what does this power prevail over?  

Quote:Taoism just scares me into thinking you have to live and die twice to sufficiently justify a permanent life doing whatever you want.
Not three times, or four? 

Quote:I guess I can say that a proper definition of infinity gives my theory extra strength. Space is so big, you win your little infinite dream, here and here. Haha. 

Have a great day.
I'm not sure how the notion of infinity, or the realization that space is big (like..really..really..really...Wink ) lends any strength whatsoever to the idea that there is an afterlife..or, if there were, that people go there.  Maybe it's reserved for chinchillas?  I mean, space is big, infinity infinity something or other, therefore chinchilla heaven, but no people heaven.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
