I am still trying to figure out for my self what happens after death, come up with my own theory. It takes a lot of time and reflexion but I do think that something happens after death. It can't just be over. When it is my time to go I will be ready to take the next big adventure and find out.

By definition, death, which is after life, is the state at which a previously once "alive" being now becomes-well DEAD.
Therefore, Life after death makes no sense to say, if you define Life in the conventional manner in which we all are currently existing.
Probably a better way to word your question is: "Is there Spirit after the body dies?". in which case I would believe the answer would be 'YES'! That being said, however, I am not so sure whether there is still consciousness after death as I am still confused whether this is a cognitive experience or a spiritual experience.

yes of course. i absolutely believe that there is life after death. I'm an Adventist person and as far as i can remember on our lessons every Saturday there is really life after death cause Jesus do promise us that in his Second Coming he will judge us according to our good deeds including those who are already dead they will be judge also and if they are proven as good followers of Jesus then they will live with him including the good ones and that's the time the so called "life after death" is true.

Death is only the death of the vessel you are in now, without the fruit of the Tree of Life to sustain you, this body will grow old and die because Adam and Eve ate the fruit of the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil.
The spirit never dies, it has been given to us from God, as it was for Adam through the "Breath of Life" and so to God it shall return.
Psalm 31:5
Into your hands I commit my spirit; redeem me, O LORD, the God of truth.
Luke 23:46
Jesus called out with a loud voice, "Father, into your hands I commit my spirit." When he had said this, he breathed his last.
Acts 7
59While they were stoning him, Stephen prayed, "Lord Jesus, receive my spirit."
Your body shall return to the earth after your spirit has left it, for this reason we shall receive a new body when God creates the new Earth.
Genesis 3:19
By the sweat of your brow you will eat your food until you return to the ground, since from it you were taken; for dust you are and to dust you will return."
Ecclesiastes 3
18 I also thought, "As for men, God tests them so that they may see that they are like the animals. 19 Man's fate is like that of the animals; the same fate awaits them both: As one dies, so dies the other. All have the same breath ; man has no advantage over the animal. Everything is meaningless. 20 All go to the same place; all come from dust, and to dust all return. 21 Who knows if the spirit of man rises upward and if the spirit of the animal goes down into the earth?"
1 Corinthians 15
42So will it be with the resurrection of the dead. The body that is sown is perishable, it is raised imperishable; 43it is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory; it is sown in weakness, it is raised in power; 44it is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body. If there is a natural body, there is also a spiritual body. 45So it is written: "The first man Adam became a living being"; the last Adam, a life-giving spirit. 46The spiritual did not come first, but the natural, and after that the spiritual. 47The first man was of the dust of the earth, the second man from heaven. 48As was the earthly man, so are those who are of the earth; and as is the man from heaven, so also are those who are of heaven. 49And just as we have borne the likeness of the earthly man, so shall we bear the likeness of the man from heaven.

No.
It's a myth. Invented by people who are afraid of death. That's pretty much the only reason for religon after all, providing comfort to those who are afraid of thier own shadows. Note, however, that it provides NO comfort after you're dead. That's when you know all that time in church was utterly wasted.
