One minute you say we are always in the Creator's presence, that he doesn't go off somewhere, and the next you say He stops... goes off somewhere, and starts back up again with my thoughts. Not sure that makes any sense. So, what if I hit my head on the table I created and only I can see? Will anyone else see the bruise? Not trying to be condesending, just can't beleive you're serious. Hey, I'm no theologian, I just know that scientific proof is no proof at all. Scientists discover new things and explain things that disprove even their own previous findings all the time. God never changes. He's the same yesterday, today and tomorrow, which, back to your original comment, is what Alpha & Omega means... the beginning and the end... not that He's the only thing that exists. Let me just ask you to think about this... what if you're wrong? If I'm wrong, you and I are really just in the same boat when we die, right? But if you're wrong, and you die without ever accepting the FREE gift that Jesus gave, you'll spend eternity in torment. I hope God reveals Himself to you and all who've read this!!! Whew! I'm going to go take a nap. (Ran 5.5 mi, (2.5 uphil & into a 35 mph wind) this morning... I think I've earned it.
Why an urn? Why not scattered?

My liver will be removed for donation. I will be cremated. My ashs will be placed in an urn.

Because it secretly spells "run". I'm not sure what scattered secretly spells.

Dang...now I'm going to be playing with the arrangement of the letters in 'scattered' for the rest of the day. Cats...something...hmmm...
"Years ago my mother used to say to me, she'd say, 'In this world, Elwood, you must be' - she always called me Elwood - 'In this world, Elwood, you must be oh so smart or oh so pleasant.' Well, for years I was smart. I recommend pleasant."
I believe that when I die, I will go to a shiny, happy place where I can hang out at my favorite running site without hearing a word about politics, religion, global warming, animal rights, vegetarianism, or - to paraphrase the great Ferris Bueller - any ism at all.
Best I could come up with was "Create STD" or "Deter cats". Hmmm...still working...
Whatever this says.
Imminent Catastrophe

Proof is a mathematical concept. Science doesn't prove or disprove anything. It attempts to find an explanation for observed phenomena. If evidence later contradicts the findings, science attempts to find a better explanation, rather than adhering to dogma. That's a good thing.

I don't know what happens when we die. Mostly I suspect it's a fade to black & then you're worm chow.
