But I'm not defining death as the opposite of life. I'm talking about literal, physical death, which is not, in my opinion, the opposite of life. That's like saying love and hate are opposites. At first glance they might be, but upon closer inspection, you begin to realize they are more alike than you may think. Death does not go against life. Especially if you believe in an afterlife, and I know you do, so I don't understand why you are saying this. Under that belief, death is just an entrance to a new life. Don't so many 'Christian' songs talk about how they are so excited to meet God? To see him and be with him? So WHY is death such a horrible thing to you? Shouldn't it come as a joyful thing? I mean, Christians should be (and apparently are) excited for death! I mean, of course there are the people left behind, but like I said, much, much good comes from death. The good outweighs the bad, from my experience. Death is part of life. Life is about learning, about experience, about thinking and growing. Death plays a huge role in that.
I'm gonna stop there. That should be enough to get your brain rollin'. :)

i don't think love and hate are really all that much alike.. but they have similarities.. it just means opposite feelings or actions.
but our responce to those are sort of similar in a weird way.
death and life i don't really think are opposites. death and birth are.. the leaving the world and coming into the world.
but earthly death is just leaving this life.. it's a transition. death is okay. dying ain't generally fun though..
