“the Organizing Principle” that God has “embedded” within the operations of His Creation, e.g., Through “X-ray crystallography,” biologists Creek and Watson were able to put together the “discovery” that our DNA has a double-helix structure.

      In the same vein, as we socially relate to one another, God entreats us to “judge righteously” and not “according to appearance.” (1 Samuel 16:6–7; John 7:14–24).

      We have “inner-self internal consciousness” (we know that we exist; we know that we are); as well as “outer-other-self-consciousness” (we know that we are aware, that others are, or that others also exist.)

      And we also possess “outer-external other-consciousness” (we know that others are aware that they also exist).

      In short, (1) We know that we exist; (2) We know that we know that we exist; (3) We know that others exist; (4) And we know that we know that others do exist; (5) And we know that we know that others also know that we do exist and that they also exist!

      That means, whether or not there is indeed “an after-life,” its existence is independent of “our belief systems.” God does not seek His own interest; for He is self-sufficient! But we are not! We are “created beings:” We have a beginning, a life-span, and an end! We exist “from the diaper,” until comes, our time “for the coffin.”

      And given that we can know, and do know, that we can neither verify its existence, nor confirm its non-existence: Then, we have to take God’s Word seriously concerning this matter! No one can die and return to life to tell us whether “the after-life” exists or not!

      Our “belief systems,” e.g., “Existentialism;” or “thought systems,” e.g., “Marxian Dialectics,” “Epiphenomenalism,” etc. . .., are irrelevant to the true authentic existence of that “after-life Reality.” We will be “long gone” before the discussion ends. (Matthew 18:7 Luke 11:28; John 9:39–41).

      The group of believers called “Existentialists,” will answer those questions by saying that: No mortal Human Being can prove that there is no “after-life!” That’s called “a double negative” or that “we cannot disprove there is no after-life.”

      But, before we were conceived and born, we did not exist; and after we die, we will no longer exist. We’re conceived to be born, to live, and then to die! “Point final!” And that’s that! Period! Though these supposed assurances will be uttered by “Scientists,” — or people who believe that only the material-physical Universe which we can “handle with our biological senses” is real, — but such pretenses of certainty without valid reproducible proof are, “not scientific.” For, a principle of the Scientific Method is that experimental results must be reproducible for verification by independent, disinterested, and unbiased researchers.

      Jesus Christ rose from the dead and ascended unto Heaven, after which He empowered us with the knowledge of His Holy Spirit, to ensure and seal the Reality of our “spiritual existence” in the “world to come” (the “New heaven and new earth”); or in the “after-life” (going to Heaven or ending-up in Hell!) (Isaiah 65:17; 66:1; 22; Matthew 25:40–46; Mark 13:1–2; Luke 17:37; 1 Corinthians 15:42–58).

      However, the same “Existentialist” who rejects God’s existence; who denies the existence of our spirit and soul; who dismisses the Reality of our “inner-self” as being independent of our biology; and who objects to “the Realness” of the abstract Mind we possess that allows us to think and form ideas: He or she, that so-called “Existentialist,” will still cling to “the abstract rules, regulations, laws, or statutes” that govern, instruct, or inform our knowledge of the sanctity of his or her inalienable right “to possess or own property;” he or she will demand respect for his or her Human dignity, —abstract non-physical spiritual concepts — when confronted with every or any attempt at violating his or her “Human rights” or “civil rights;” he or she will expect, desire, or demand “justice be done” in cases before a court of law, so that the decision is either in his or her favor, or against his or her disadvantage.

      How do we “reconcile” such baffling contradictions! These contradictions are, to say the least, “mind-boggling.” Hence, this perplexing, vexatious, and confounding paradox: “Human nature” engaged in “navigating” through, or “negotiating,” our “Human condition!”

      Existentialists will use an abstraction that he or she does not believe in, e.g., a mental spiritual construct called “a Law,” so as to justify or rationalize his or her “right” to possessing or owning property, which is a concrete physical thing.

      But did not God say, “Let there be light and then there was light!” Then, is it not the Spirit who brings things into existence? (Isaiah 48:12–13; Romans 4:16–18; 1 Corinthians 1:28–31; Hebrews 11:1–3).
