Try a thought experiment. Close your eyes and imagine you will die and that your consciousness will cease to exist forever, eternally-- never to return. Death then, is not sleep, because the comfort of sleep is that we are partly dreaming, and even when we aren't conscious, our unconscious mind is at rest. But death is the end of your consciousness, so you cannot logically call it sleep. Your world (you only know of this world as a subject) will cease forever. Whether humanity lives on for thousands or millions of years, or whether another species eventually evolves is irrelevant to the world you lose, because you will never be apart of it. Nothingness is not a state, and neither is it sleep or bliss. The nothingness before you were born is irrelevant here, because you had not come into being yet. But here you are. Now to the question: Does that scare you?

I used ancestory.com and the Latter day Saints site which provided some great findings. Do I need to search the actual country they came from to find dates beyond the early 1800's ??

I would like to find him or his children. His name was Joseph Flippin, one of his daughters was Yvonne Flippin, married to a soldier, of some military branch.

He was a pastor at the church, South Mountain Baptist Church, in Phoenix, AZ. They did not keep records then, since he was forced to leave in shame. It is rumored that he had fathered atleast 6 other children, during his time as pastor there.

I have two young son's and would love to be able to tell them somehting of my fraternal heritage.

thnx.

I’m interested in history of ancient Rome, especially, in learning of everyday life of the ancient Romans. My favourite ancient writer is Marcus Valerius Martial, because he narrated of everyday life mainly and not about historical events only. While reading his fine epigrams I was interested in some questions, for example: how the Roman public libraries did look like? Had the ancient Romans the words of address to a stranger, equivalent for the English modern day words “Mr.” and “Mrs.”? I understand that the Romans addressed to their friends: “My friend!” and a servant addressed to his/her master: “O, my lord!” And what about addressing to a stranger? It is most interesting, and unfortunately I could not understand it reading Martial’s writings.
