1. Paths of Least Resistance: To what extent do human beings seek paths of least resistance
physically, emotionally, socially, intellectually and spiritually?
2. Events at Death: Our material being begins the 'slow, smokeless burning of decay' and decomposition at physical death; what happens to our immaterial being (the capacity to receive, process, learn, build banks of knowledge, utilize memory storage, develop norms and standards, recall, apply principles in deciding between alternative options) at that moment?
3. Have you ever considered the premise that imbedded hatred of another person is the equivalent of mental murder
(lacking only the convenient circumstantial opportunity, passionate rage of the moment and alibi to committed it)?
4. Why has this simple question been avoided by theists and atheists and in-betweeners alike?
5. What does the human spiritual experience mean to you and your family in terms of what you think and do each day?
6. Why has the word "reverence" gone out of fashion and all but disappeared from this spirituality forum?

7. Why is it that this spirituality forum sometimes brings a tombstone to mind?

Other than a clear yes (the immaterial goes on after physical death) or no, there was other ideas like the one where it is believed that the brain goes into a dream-like state just before physical death and the dreamer continues their life for a possibly near infinite length of time due to the time warping conditions experienced when dreaming.
3. Yes.
4.It's tough to answer in a public forum.
Prolly way easier in a one on one dialogue.
5. I dont know about my family but I myself reflect on spirituality and the type of learning ascociated with spirituality daily.
I consider that the majority of my make-up (that which I think I am), is non physical (spiritual), while the minor part is the physical.
6. Times are a Changin' (?)
7. For me the SF gets me down sometimes when I cant put simple spiritual ideas forward without being immediately ridiculed ,when the respondent knows little or nothing(experientially) of what I am saying

Does continuity of the immaterial karoly aczel in an immortal body at a new address following physical death of the temporal body make sense? Do you have a source of information for the "type of learning ascociated with spirituality daily"?

As are all the answers.
It's really how we frame our questions.
One who asks a good question is considered intelligent in my book
