That clauses?
Could someone elaborate on the underlined section please ?
What do we mean by 'proceeding as a main clause from the previous sentence' in this context.
The that-clause can be seen as a dependent clause preceding from the main clause, "They echo an in important principle...":
They echo an important principle; in that we shouldn't fear or challenge death, or the nature of death ; that we meet it half-way be valuing life and respecting and not harming others.
and so it should not be separated. Usually, a dependent clause can be the head of a sentence if it does not precede as a main clause from the previous sentence. However, as you can see if it were not separated it would be an extremely complex sentence.
