There's people dying today that have never died before!

I was once assured that there are more people alive today than the total number of people who've died added together.

 

1) I'm not sure I believed that then, or now, and

2) I'm not sure the informant did either, and

3) I'm not sure I really grasped what he meant.

"So what are the figures?

There are currently seven billion people alive today and the Population Reference Bureau estimates that about 107 billion people have ever lived."

Or even, if we die?

Or do we move into a different state of being?

Yes, that's something I often wonder.

 

Like this is phase 1 (life and death) and then a phase 2.
