If the brain ceases functioning at death, what's doing the dreaming?
There's the grand question from which religion and spirituality springs--along with hope and hubris.

In my view, dead is dead. If you take care of yourself, have had the good fortune to be born into a reasonably well-off family in a safe country, don't smoke, and wear your seat belt, you'll get about 80 good years, and that's it. So, I suggest we all make the best of them, and stop griping that that's all there is or pretending that's there more.
