It's tricky. As Socrates noted in the Apology, it's much easier to convince someone in a one-on-one conversation than to have a general argument to convince anyone in general.

Yeah, it is. I would like a good link to use as a conversation starter, at least.

I wanted to evangelize on other message boards/blogs/etc., and having a single, ready-made "No, you really can cheat death!" link I can post would be a big help.
