Reality is based upon perception. Meaning you make your own reality. Explain how real it is when you take a bad trip on acid. God's reality surrounds our realities. Reality is a fabric with many layers that sometimes interweave. Life is the ongoing reality of which the layers continue to grow. Death is the end of the growth of the fabric and becomes the dye in which to change the color of other fabrics. When the process of all life is complete and everyone has spilled their dye a new fabric will begin. There is no connection with the old and new fabric. The old fabric would be done away with. The only question in my mind would be the wait after one's dye is spilled until the transition is complete to the new fabric. I guess the glass which contained the dye would be stacked in the place in which they would spend eternity, until the next expanse of fabric would begin.

Was your perception of reality ever "made" through he ingestion of acid? This sounds like something Jerry Garcia used to say when he was designing ties while in rehab. Maybe a tie-dyed shop in Haight-Ashbury would be a good place to wait for eternity. You would make a lot of money.I would like you to clarify something that's a little muddied... If there is no connection between the old and new fabric, why should anyone care about the old fabric from 2000 years ago? So some guy carries a big ass cross to a hill and gets beat down for a couple of days...who cares? According to your statement, there is no connection. Oh yeah...that book with all those old stories isn't worth much either. Once I spill my dye, all I have to wait for the transition. Whew, what a relief.
