Pastimes : Ask John Galt...

I'm impressed with how you slipped and slithered your way through
fragmented and disparate thoughts toward that ultimate question, "Is there Life after DEATH?"

If you think about it (for a second or two), your question really
is, "Is there Life after the END OF LIFE?" The question, of course,
is irrational and meaningless.

John Galt is a severe rationalist and a profound thinker. John Galt
does not see reincarnation, nor does he see the soul hopping out of
the grave, either ascending toward paradise or descending toward hell.

However, John Galt does see life (in a more omniprecient way) as regenerative. The evidence abounds all around you. What makes you
uniquely you (individual) is a mere fraction to the totality of the
life you represent. This fraction is represented in the dynamic interplay of random events. When death comes (understand that death
is only an event and not a place in space or time), perhaps, and unfortunately for the rest of us, a substantial part of what you
were will remain with us for a very, very long time.

Now, any other investment questions?
