Your statement assumes that i must be in a penniless state/circumstance, or that i will be, when i pass on when i 'go to God'. [ Grin

]

There are a lot of people in this age, that seem to confidently, and happily, make uninformed and mistaken assumptions in life.

e.g.
I know that a lot of 'modern' science [many 'modern' 'scientific' hypothesises] are based upon unprovable and unverifiable assumptions.

e.g.
'Dinosaur fossils are known to be millions of years old.'
