But I don’t know.

How completely absurd would it be to answer your child truthfully the first time he or she asks you what happens after we die? To look at them and say I have no freaking idea. Nobody does. Some people say they do but the validity of their claims is often called into question. Has any parent ever done this, or are a child’s eyes too precious to tell that particular truth to?

I mean I suppose I could explain the biological processes of what happens to the body after death, and then give them a survey course in what cultures around the world believe happens to the spirit.
