Don Juan (re. Carlos Castaneda) and I will argue that our Life will Not end. The choice to Live, with impeccable intent, can escape the Eagle. Another way to avoid death (without the incredible chore of impeccable intent) would be as that ole boy Jesus called enter the Kingdom, we "would not taste death". I understand "enter the Kingdom" as "change the 'direction' of Society".

That is the opposit of what I presented above, no thank you.
