What is the "substantial difference"?

• taeric 8y ago
  Again, why would I have to be explicit/exact on it? Two stars in the sky have an obvious substantial difference between their existences. Even if I couldn't readily express what those differences are. I mean, I get that these are fun discussions to have. Likely even meaningful. But the odd friction this is adding to enter the conversation seems overblown.

    >Again, why would I have to be explicit/exact on it Did I ask you to be "explicit/exact"? I'm just curious for you to describe, at all, the supposed "substantial difference" that you apparently know of between being "not yet born" and being "dead". >Two stars in the sky have an obvious substantial difference between their existences. In what way are two stars analogous at all to being not yet born and being dead?
