I'm not sure if anyone truly understands the finality of deletion. Your soul's energy cannot die, but your attachment to that energy can be erased. When this happens, soul's are fragmented billions of times over, and utilized for growing new civilizations from the start elsewhere. As a soul goes through the maturation process on its way to becoming attached to an intelligent body, these fragments are condensed into a single structure. A process that takes billions of years...
Your soul knows this, but your conscience chooses not to accept it, generally. Remember the ownership stuff I discussed earlier? Just so you know, your opinion doesn't mean anything. The only way to garner respect in this system is a desire for transcendence.
There's the pickle... and subsequently why everyone alive on this planet currently, chose to be here, and HAD TO agree to the terms at least 3 times each. No exceptions, not even me.
Why did you make this choice? Because you were confronted with a decision; life on Earth (again) in hopes of gaining transcendence, or deletion. You and everyone else alive chose the former. What does that tell you about deletion? Deletion is the single most painful experience that a soul can go through.
