even opposite perspective on both life and death. Specifically, life precludes a person from experiencing immortality and death offers the opportunity to achieve immortality.

life and death as represented in the Christian doctrine. He maintains that the soul continues to exist after the body is destructed then reunites with it during resurrection.

Though the British had more well-trained troops compared to the U.S., they faced a manpower disadvantage as American troops significantly outnumbered them (Smith). This disadvantage was, however, compensated by Britain's allies in North America, especially the… Continue Reading...
such uncertainties the military leader must make decisions. Such situations require gut and intuition as combat is often a matter of life and death.
