Thanks Neesy, but isn’t death actually the converse of life? Now taxes on the other hand... ;)

Once you take a breath, the one and only thing you can be 100% sure WILL happen is at some point you will die. All the rest is a crap shoot. Including taxes and what rights you may or may not have. As SK said in the interview about the death/taxes statement, some people are even somehow able to avoid those (taxes). And as he said, and I say all the time, the one and only experience we all share regardless of faith, color, status and effort is death.

LOL. I was going to say "antithesis" but I didn't know how to spell it. :)
Well since all life comes from the death of something else, I'd say they are really one in the same, no? The first rule of the universe is from chaos comes order. In the Bible it's phrased "ashes to ashes, dust to dust". This concept is not a new one I don't think and seems to be somewhat central to Revival from the narrative I've thus far heard.
