DAVEH: I'm a little reticent to post a reply to this, considering I've made my opinion known in the past. I have previously mentioned a couple passages that lend support to my LDS biased believe in this matter.....1Pt 3:18-19 and 1Pt 4:6. The Lord's comment to the thief on the cross (to be with him in Paradise that day) would also lead one to believe in some kind of conscious spiritual existence prior to the resurrection. And of course there are many other examples of dead folks having a spiritual existence, including those today who relate their NDE (Near Death Experience) accounts.
