it's hard to think of there not being an afterlife...it seems like the only plausible answer considering the possibility of humans having a "soul". then again, our bodies are simply made up of trillions of cells, and when we die they die. so the fact of death is merely the process and function of the body ceasing to work. the thought of a soul or a higher power is something that just can't be argued and pretty much induces the existence of an afterlife or not.

all in all, my beliefs are just in the middle. you can't be certain about anything in this subject, and because of that i won't be certain about either side. hopefully, when i die after leading a good life, i'll be either repaid or simply cease to function and no longer be

hey dude thanks for replying. my whole thing is is that i'm pretty much not going to go my whole life wondering if Jesus was the son of God or if Christianity is all correct or if Jesus even existed for that matter, i simply want to lead a good life. when i grow up i want to live on sunset strip in san francisco where every night i see a beautiful sunset and live in a 1500 square foot house in a great area, i'd hardly call that "lavish" even though the houses are expensive because of the real estate. everyone screws up as people in their lives but i don't dwell on it. bottom line is i try to lead a good life and i think i do a pretty good job of it. when i die i want to die knowing that made the world at least somewhat better. if, when i die, i get judged by st. peter or whoever and i go to hell i'd be pissed of course but i'm sure i'd be in the company of many other virtuous non-believers (aristotle...etc.). i'd like to believe that virtuous people--no matter on their beliefs--go to heaven if it exists.

PRS is Paul Reid Smith. They make kick ass guitars

Thanks for the comment on my cover. The intro thing is what my friend told me. I've been working on the volume swells the past couple of days (the video was recorded a couple of weeks ago).

Now that you say it, it does sound a bit rushed. That's the power of having someone else look over it.

Thanks

The overall sound is of better quality.

Do you have any amp recommendations for a <$200 budget? I was thinking of getting a roland cube 20x. It comes with effects built in and a tunah!

ya the 20x is a decent amp for that price. I would personally save up a little more and get a Roland Cube 30.

I just got my backup 7 string, Ibanez 7321, pretty sweet for the price
