[extropy-chat] Death

[Eliezer S. Yudkowsky]

Samantha,

When I lost my brother Yehuda, I did not seek comfort.  I have my task to do, 
and my anger helps.  That is my path and I do not know if it will benefit 
others - I doubt it will bring happiness in the short term.  It may help bring 
about happiness and healing in the long term, maybe, after Death is destroyed.

The comfort I can offer you is this:  That we will storm the gates of Heaven, 
burn down God and anyone else responsible, tear down the foundations of the 
world, to stop this obscenity.

In the name of Michael who is dead but not forgotten.

- Eliezer.
