The safest bet is that the "spark" - our minds, our awareness, even our "souls" - is a function of our physical bodies. When we die and our bodies stop working, the spark dies too.

In what way is that "safe"? Do you mean it's an absolute certainty? Or do you mean, their could be some degree of uncertainty, but given the choice, that's the best option. If so, why?

Maybe that's not true, but what's the value in believing otherwise?

Well, maybe - and this isn't meant to imply it actually is so - but maybe our lives on this Earth are meant for some purpose. That consideration might affect how we live, not for some future reward or punishment, but simply because what we do here could be important, rather than pointless.

Peter
