I have wondered for long what the relationship is there between pain and death. How exactly does pain lead to death. You see haemorrhage would cause death by blood loss while suffocation would cut air supply. So what exactly does pain do?Sad

You seem to take it for granted that pain can lead to death. That premise is not necessarily true. In fact I think no amount of pain can kill you. It is only that pain is an outward expression of an underlying problem, such as a missing head if someone decapitates you. That missing head is what kills you, not the pain. So what exactly does pain do? It causes you to reach out to where your melon should be and say, hmm, what is happening here?

Can one really feel pain in such a case?

There's an 'all or nothing' law, that leaves a constant sensation of pain after a certain threshold is reached.

Normally great pain must affect organ function, hence may cause death.

@Elder, excuse the hyperbole.

CITAM Valley Road is asking for people who've suffered bereavement to register. They intend to have something for them, in respect to '... after burial'

Everyone will register.

But then, I thought Church is about eternal life, what is this special program again?
