Fairly certain you wont be banned. No worries there. I'm not a complete grinch btw, there may be no great mystery in death, but it would absolutely fair to say that there is a great amount of mystery in how people deal with death.
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!

So, C Rod, do these soulless animals simply stop existing when they die?

Stop existing in this world, yes. I can only know something personal if it happens to me. Thats why i was asking about death because that very action will someday happen. To others i will no longer exist and to me, my biological functions, which let me know me, will cease.

Do soulless animals go on existing in some other world?  What is all of this you can only know something personal business. Did the sun rise in Kenya today? Feeding off of our other thread, you seem to "know" alot of things that didn't happen personally, to you. Why is death different?
Your biological functions don't just let you "know you"...you are a product of them.

As I figured, he's clueless when it comes to this easy foil to play. At least he's consistent.

Personal=happens to me, ergo i know what happens to me. Other stuff happens but i don't know of it, if i do not know it, duh.
What things did i know?
And what is this product?

Explain. I answered, did you want a revelation that would make you laugh or pump up your ego?

We wanted revelation that was consistent with you argument. Too much to ask?

What was the argument?
I remember asking a stupid question and then trying to defend it with no basis.
There was no argument, just a compilation of the same ideas over and over again.

Back to the pantomime. You are either ignorant or willfully obtuse.

You want defining proof to justify your belief. Should it be that God is real i think telling him i didn't see you so all my wrong actions are your fault, is little childish.
You don't wish to answer back because your asking questions about what i believe, which will not be justified by satisfiable proof, or my obtuse questions accomplish there goal. Like the kid that ask "but why" till you just look him in the eyes and say i don't know. Yet you guys wont admit that, its just to modest for your complacent arrogance.
