"Looks like God has graciously granted Solon an opportunity to contemplate his mortality "

Don't be such an ignorant little Cupcake! Life gives most people the opportunity to consider what actions are meaningful in a finite experience. Just as humans have existed for only a tiny period of historical time compared to most other life...so have individual humans existed for a metaphorical moment. I did not exist a hundred years ago (or 13 BILLION)--and neither did you. And all life exists for the briefest of times and then is gone.

I do not "contemplate" my mortality these days. That would be pointless. I contemplate my life and what is meaningful and affirming day to day. And I will never ever ever subdue Reason and Facts in the shadows of absurd fairy tales which dishonour the badge of homo sapien.

If I ever see your imaginary friend face to face, I will kick him right in the balls! Capiche?!
