Very sensible.

I (on my part) like Kuruharan's point about the uncertainty factor. Their belief in both reincarnation and thier right to go to the Halls of Mandos are shadowy and strange, and I think that the idea of various (and contradictory) myths is an important one... which is to say, I don't believe I have to decide what happens [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img] .

What does everyone think about the Elves' contention that Dwarves have no afterlife at all? Isn't that equally up in the air?
