By which I meant that if one deals with people one needs to understand that the religious establishment offers a product for which there is a demand. That product is peace_of_mind when a "death" occurs. That is what Mr.Platt fails to understand. It is one thing to hope that the scientific community will accept the science of cryonics but another thing to offer a product that has appeal.
