I don't believe angels are dead people and i don't believe you can live when you're dead. If you want an "afterlife", you'll need the resurrection, which the bible calls Jesus. You can either have eternal life or cease to exist, the choice is yours.

There is definitely life after death.When we transition back to where we belong and where we came from,marks our graduation from this school called life.This means we have experienced all that we were supposed to and learned all that we needed for our souls progression.Having experienced a near death experience,I now know this to be true.Also,angels do exist and intervene in our lives here more than most realize.They are not dead relatives or friends.They are God's special entities ,created for the purpose they serve and to be our protectors.

Angels exist. God created them before he made humans.
Death is inevitable. The thief on the cross knew when his would occur, but we can not predict our own. After his death, the crucified criminal went to live in paradise with Jesus. Some of us will also live eternally in God's presence. But others will experience everlasting torment, forever separated from Him.
If we receive Jesus as our Savior, our penalty for sin is paid. We are adopted into God's family, and Heaven is our eternal home. If we reject Jesus, we remain alienated from the Lord and under condemnation for our sin. We are destined to experience eternal judgment. God won't accept any of man's excuses because there is no acceptable defense for unbelief. (Acts 4:12)
Become part of God's family today. Acknowledge your sinfulness, and express your faith in these words:
"God, I have sinned against You. (Romans 3:23) I've followed my own way and refused to give You the right to rule in my life. (Romans 3:10-12) I recognize I am separated from You and cannot rescue myself. I do believe that Jesus Christ is Your Son. I accept the truth of the Scriptures? that His death on the cross paid my sin-debt in full. (1 Corinthians 15:3-4) And I ask You to forgive me of my sins. (1 John 1:9) By faith, I receive You, Lord Jesus, as my personal Savior from this moment on."
If you just spoke those words to God, then, like the thief on the cross, you have received salvation? a gift of God's grace. The heavenly Father welcomes every person who comes to Him through His Son, regardless of background, age, or current situation. Through Jesus, the right to enter paradise is yours!

Yes, I believe in both, though I don't think that angels are dead people.
Angels are created beings. Biblically, angels were created to worship and serve God. Lucifer was the most beautiful of angels, but due to pride, decided to try to take God's throne, and convinced one third of the angels to follow him. Those are the fallen angels, aka demons. There was war, and he was cast down from heaven. Lucifer, also known as satan, then convinced Adam and Eve to sin, to disobey God and follow satan, which gave satan the legal right to really screw up humankind. Jesus came to break that curse of sin, so that we could return to pure relationship with God.
We are all created to be eternal beings. The only choice we have is where we want to spend eternity. We can either choose to follow Jesus, and spend eternity in heaven, or we can choose to follow satan, and have an eternity in hell. God doesn't send anyone to hell, He merely grants the wish of each person if they decide they don't want to surrender their lives to Jesus and go to heaven, he allows them to spend eternity in eternal death, but the choice is YOURS. Choose this day whom you will serve. As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.

Absolutely, all of the above. In fact, the only thing I really don't believe in is death at all. I don't believe that we ever die. I believe that we shed ourselves of the bonds of the physical dimension and the physical body and continue living in a different, more free form in the spiritual dimension.

No. That's the meaning of death, you die, you cease to exist.

I think both are highly unlikely.

Now that you ask, no, neither of the two.
