"I am facing a disease which almost certainly will kill me within the next 8 years"

I'm betting the over. Especially if you can make it for the next few years. And if I'm right, you can lay about 20-1 it won't be because of anything a devout religious person thought of.

Meanwhile there are life after death scenarios that you can talk to your daughter about that don't require the moronic specifics of organized religion.

And thank you for putting a face on the arguments against people like BluffTHIS or RJT who say that its no big deal if excellent minds are spending there time on deciding whether Mary was a virgin rather than studying molecular biology.
