That's a very big assumption, and one to be very careful about when making decisions about what choices to encourage others to make in their final days. In fact, it's a belief itself, yet you're treating it as if it's a fact and one we can safely live by and encourage others to live by. That's very serious.
- em-bee 7y agoit's not an assumption but an interpretation based on how life after death is described. and of course yes, it's a belief. sorry for not making that clear. without any belief, death is nothing, just end of life. whether this belief is reasonable or not, you'll need to decide for yourself by researching relevant sources. i did not intend to encourage anyone to live by it, rather my intention is to console those who are grieved by the loss of a loved one.
