Friends' Beliefs

Hello. On account of the wide divergence of viewpoint on whether Friends (of which I am one) pay attention to afterlife issues, I deleted my original entry on it, only to find that various people re-insert it and slant it oppositely. I have attended in the vicinity of 1600 First-Day meetings in about 6 states and a couple of other countries and have never heard anyone mention dead souls or the like, or pray for the dead, though the dead may be spoken of in fond remembrance. So let's just take out that section again - I should never have put it in. I considered that it showed a strong contrast to many other Christian sects, but no sense arguing over it forever.
