Kirk Cameron Rejects Eternal Conscious Torment, Embraces Conditional Immortality

[TMSO]

Turns out annihilation does have a conceptual/semantic meaning: complete destruction or obliteration.

Perhaps you simply framed your statement in a way that is philosophically confused. As it stands it equivocates between conceptual meaning and experiential content.

Did you mean annihilation cannot be experienced or describe, because non-existence has no subject to experience, therefore annihilation is "meaningless"?

I was making a joke. But, that is a point of truth. Since we have no shared experience of annihilation/obliteration/non-existence, we cannot comprehend it. Is it dark? Is it painful? Is it cold? Does it taste like chicken? Does it have a flavor? It is an existential question that has no answer, because the definition of annihilation ends in non-existence.
