I don't know but I am sure that we will be conscious somehow when the body dies. Even if scientists find a way to build robots that think, look and communicate like us or take DNA, or whatever they try to do, and grow humans in labs( which I'm sure they can't) they will never be able to duplicate consciousness. For all their research they have not been able to find a link between the brain and decision making. This is very strong evidence for the soul and the ancient question still remains, " what is the ghost in the machine?".

It'll be the same as before you were born. You just don't exist.

I find it amusing how people think you would reincarnate or go to heaven or to another galaxy, because it just makes them close-minded. People have to realize their life is nothing more than a bunch of organs functioning together and when you die, those organs stop functioning which means your brain, will no longer be able to perceive any thoughts. Hence, your existence is no more, exactly the same as before you were born.

I think most religious people just simply can't accept their non-existence, or afraid of death.

When I die, my body's gonna decompose and float into the atmposhere. Eventually, plants from all corners of the world will be able to benefit from the carbon dioxide that will be given off from my corpse.

And then animals will eat the plants. And then people will eat the animals. And, who knows, maybe the person who digests that miniscule part of me might be a pregnant woman and so life begins anew.

In other words, the cycle of life will reset itself. I just won't be conscious of it until I'm reborn (or at least part of me)

I don't particularly care personally. I focus on my life here and now and how I'm going to live it, not on my death and what will happen when I die. Being obsessed with what will happen upon death is pretty damn morbid and to spend your life worrying about that is not much of a life at all.

Carpe diem, people. Life is too short to be obsessed with death.

This question cannot be answered definitively by us mere mortals. Many proclaim to have "THE" answer, and who knows maybe some person or group does. In the end I think that most people have the same beliefs that their parents have so ask your parents about this one. Basically, either there is an afterlife or there is not. If there is not, you will not be able to realize it so I prefer to hedge my bet and say there is.

No one can tell you. No one has been there and returned. Even if you believe Jesus returned, he still didn't tell anyone.

Get on with life. You know for certain about the suffering and evil in *this* life. Do everything you can to make the world you live in better for all humanity and for our descendants.

Why procrastinate by waiting for Jesus to do it for you? Start today. Do one little thing to start us on the path to peace on earth.

Shalom

Nothing. There is no 'other side' because life and death are not 'sides', they are states of being. Life is organic, chemical and biological processes functioning an a defined manner. Stop those processes, and you have stopped that life. No life = no awareness. No awareness = no afterlife.

All the warm Krispy Kremes you can eat, with no calories or cholesterol. And puppies to play with.

Either than or they pump you full of chemicals and suff you in the ground after your consciousness has lapsed into oblivion.

Nothing is on the other side, as there is no other side. Lev 9:5 etc. KJV

depends on your belief.......I believe its either heaven or the grave. The reasons I believe that is because of the bible. I think the grave is hell. Your own personal hell at that.
