Well , we all can see tolerantly thru history many things horrible and insane , yet many things have come from many sources that does show that "God" was always there working thru many channels after all , and gave his message often thru pagans as well. ;-)

Einstein was not as concerned as the earliest Christians of keeping the body intact for delivery up unto heaven as a whole for the latter resuurection of the 'return".....his brain sits in a jar somewhere kept safe for study in Princeton . Now this would seem to put most people off and most assuredly be horrifying to the early Christians who were careful to bury themselves whole , but i can testify here that once the electric current is turned off in the nervous system at the moment of death , all sensation as you knew it called "life " is then at an end .

It may seem a maudlin thought , but no more sad than to see martyrs blowing themsleves and others to pieces in the name of a "heaven" and an afterlife or the maudlin effects surrounding even today's burying ceremonies . To me death is a big sleep & return to elelments . What is done experienced in life is all that matters...but you can bury me without casket under a tree perhaps , and my body will feed it while i drift off into eternity to fathom more !
