Death is supposed to be more certain in a sense than any empirical
certainty simply because no-one (the they?) doubts it. Sounds reasonable to
me. Heidegger also seems to use this existential certainty of death as
methodological access to a disclosure of the temporal being of Dasein in
'resolute anticipation'.

What of Heidegger, Hegel on death, Geist and the absolute, and the
devolution of German Idealism? What of the absolute as temporalizing
(ontological) difference?
Any Hegelians around?
