“Wake me up from my hibernation” – Bjork (Pagan Poetry)
As a parent, I am overwhelmed by a sense of responsibility for both life and death. It’s incredible for me to know so much over a new life. I feel like I am all-knowing as I watch my newborn learn about the world and discover things I used to take for granted … such as sleep. It frightens me to think one day when I die, I will be helpless to ever waking up and as a parent, I am saddened to think the life I have given will one day also slip away helplessly into the void, all alone.
When I say, “God, help me” …
I see God. God gave me life. God was my mother. God helped my mother give birth. God was her doctor. God gave my mother life. God was my grandmother. God is everyone. God is everywhere. God is everything. I am God.
“May God Be With You” …
Communicate and “God” will save you. Note, that I put God in quotes. God is not one entity. God is not the trinity. God is not any number of entities but rather in life lending its hand in progress.
“God save me! (from the deepest, darkest pit of emptiness)” …
God is the police, firemen, government, worker. God is the scientist. I’m putting my plea out there on the internet to communicate with you all that we’re capable of bringing back people from the dead. My hope is that you will one day bring me back to life. Life is programmable and so is our consciousness. Our consciousness, our self, our soul is programmable.
Sometime after writing my blog "What is God?", I watched an interesting in-depth analysis about resurrection on the TV series Through the Wormhole with Morgan Freeman. According to the show: maintaining a continuum of our memories makes us who we are so cloning is not enough. I disagree. Although I may have lost some of my memories over the years, I still have a sense of who I am. I am not you and you are not me. I have a very real sense of myself. Clones are not empty vessels. I believe consciousness is a manifestation of the physical human body. This is a question I'd like to further investigate: Is a clone a copy of the soul? I agree that memory is important for context but not necessary. Including memory as part of resurrection would be an added bonus.
Some say life does not seem much of a life worth living if it’s just spent worrying about death. The alternative is to live life blissfully and just accept death as a natural part of life. Rather than worrying about death but working towards not dying makes sense. We do it every day. By "it", I mean "not dying". The next step is to not do it ... ever.
Please note, that sometimes my blogs are edited without notice. No need to be alarmed, it's merely my making adjustments in my writings to reflect my true thoughts. I realized after re-reading my posts, I didn't elaborate enough and there was too much left up for interpretation. I'm rewriting some of my posts to make myself more clear.

Robin Ince says, “that science dictates we can live forever- not our consciousness, not ourselves, we only have one go at it” Well, I disagree. I believe ourselves and our consciousness is ingrained in our cells and that could be recreated.
