Trust patient to decide

I hope everybody will leave Dan Treecraft and his very personal decision alone (July 18).

Whether you blindly follow the rhetoric of a pontificating man in a dress or make your own determination, the fact is that nobody REALLY knows what happens to us after we die. Do we face some sort of judge and jury? Or have we suffered enough here on Earth and go on to some sort of wonderful reward?

Will our heart/spirit/soul get to come back in some other form/body? Those are questions to which the answers can only be guessed. It is up to each of us to make the choice, without censor from others, as to how we get to the place where we might learn those answers.
