If DivisionTheory is true, then today's most popular assumption about death and the afterlife, that "death is just a doorway, and nothing to be afraid of", is a total lie. Quite the contrary, if such a division occurs, then at death we are in danger of having our most fundamental and intimate SELF violently ripped apart. In effect, the "I" that each of us had known all through life would no longer exist at all (as per Buddhism). All that would be left would be the pieces of what we

used to be, much as all that was left of the body would be the rapidly dis-integrating elements of its substance.

Think that's bad? This is worse:

If DivisionTheory is true, then death becomes a serious matter again, and so, by extension, does the whole issue of persona integrity. For millennia, death was, in virtually every culture, a matter of the most serious concern, in which the most horrendous fate could await. But, in stark contrast to virtually the whole of human tradition, today's new age view is that "death is nothing to be afraid if, and nothing to be concerned about, and one's moral character is, to be sure, entirely

irrelevant". But if DivisionTheory is true, we suddenly understand why the earliest Christians are still renowned for the (by today's standards, seemingly absurd) extent to which they went to avoid violating their inner moral sense of right and wrong on even the smallest and most insignificant issues. They clearly saw their afterdeath fate precariously balancing on their own personal integrity during life, and this fact also testifies to the validity of DivisionTheory.

Think that's bad? This is worse:

If DivisionTheory is true, we most of us go through life after life after life, making no progress, following the following instructions:

1. Work hard as a dog.

2. Get nowhere.

3. Die.

4. Repeat.

Think that's bad? This is worse:

If DivisionTheory is true, then there really is a devil, or something very much like the traditional image of a 'devil', a real and actively functioning element inside humanity's collective unconscious, which is constantly pressing to make an impact upon our thought processes during

life. (The good news is - it wouldn't seem to have any power to effect any influence EXCEPT through the psyche and actions of another being, such as a living person, or perhaps a ghost).

Think that's bad? This is worse:

If DivisionTheory is true, then we are in real danger of becoming a part of that devil after we die, of having our personal unconscious soul become swallowed up and merged into a great "complex" in the collective unconscious which thinks it is the devil, and is composed of the

discarded personal souls of hundreds of billions of dead people from throughout humanity's past.

Think that's bad? This is worse:

If DivisionTheory is true, we are doomed to reincarnate and lose our past selves again and again, forever, unless at least one of the following two things are true:

1. The "Jesus story" is true, which will eventually but inevitably have the effect of reversing the division, and re- integrating all the separated souls and spirits of all mankind since the beginning, in a psychologically cataclysmic event ancient prophets once called "Judgment Day".

2. Every individual person, through extreme and dedicated effort, eventually reintegrates on his own, reacquiring his own past selves in the process.

Now, in that everyone who is reading this is a member of a species that has existed for at least 400,000 years (according to modern science), and most if not all of whom have successfully avoided integrating on their own during all that time, the odds are against most of us EVER

successfully integrating on our own. The odds suggest, rather, that we will reincarnate and forget, reincarnate and forget, FOREVER (meaning also that the devil would grow larger and more powerful and influential, larger and more powerful and influential, forever)...

...unless some outside force or external process forces such an integration upon us, such as the Judgment Day scenario would promise to achieve, but which could only come to pass if the "Jesus story" is true.
