Waited a bit to post this...but....is it possible that these things being "unfaceable" is actually -part- of the indoctrination so many received?
The "first invent the disease" part of "then sell the cure"?
My first reaction to the OP was, "I don't face the unfaceable, nothings unfaceable". I don't have to find a second solution to a problem because I never bought the first solution -or- the problem to begin with. Alot of the implication here seems to surround death.....and this is only anecdotal, but I've seen people face death.......and it looks alot like the way they face life, identical, really...and I've never noticed anyone who stood out in this regard, nor have I ever seen an occasion where I could determine their underlying belief structure by the way they reacted.
