| Jun 14, 2012 at 1:04 | comment | added | not-allowed to change my name | @ShmuelBrin i have heard similar but don't have a source. I also think that if this were the case it would apply to others besides those three i mentioned | |

I don't know where they are, but I assume it's in some cemetery of sorts.

| Jun 14, 2012 at 0:58 | comment | added | not-allowed to change my name | maybe I'm not phrasing this well. point 1 is asking what does the term death by a kiss actually mean since it cannot mean that God "kissed" someone and they died since that would be an anthropomorphic understanding. So if it doesn't mean that what does it mean? I further assume it doesn't mean simply died a painless death for if so what is the need for a specialized term? | |
