[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here.  Shakespeare expressed so many truths of human existence in his magnificent plays.  I played Lady Macbeth in 8th grade, and one of Macbeth's speeches at the end of the play perfectly captures the materialist's last stand:

MACBETH
Wherefore was that cry?
SEYTON
The queen, my lord, is dead.
MACBETH
She should have died hereafter;
There would have been a time for such a word.
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day
To the last syllable of recorded time,
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage
And then is heard no more: it is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.[/quote]

This may surprise you, but many so-called materialists live and die happy.  Death does not take that away.[/quote]

Precisely.  Existential despair is an equal-opportunity affliction.  :)[/quote]
