The point is that philosophers/rhetors are known for their amazing wit and their prowess in the area of language. At a time when no one else had any opportunity to an education they composed timeless works that have formed the foundation for knowledge. Philosophers were the ones who paved the way for every other discipline there is today. Their sweet words, used as an art, are arranged in such a way that convinces readers especially in matters that humans, for the most part, thought fascinating such as life after death, as most people want to believe that they will live forever. Therefore, how can we tell what to believe and what not to believe?

This assertion is highly debatable as you know:
"Philosophers were the ones who paved the way for every other discipline there is today."
what about 'a la ca-rte'?

Until/unless mortals can prove 'life before life', all talk about life after death is mere idle philosophizing, fiddlesticks!
Things don't just happen and processes do not just begin (1st & 2nd law of thermodynamics). There's method even to chance.
that force that made life happen before life is the sole custodian of knowledge about life after death. Our belief & faith, or disbelief & skepticism, have no effect on the process.
Hence, better live a life, play your role and enjoy the little niceities life has to offer at this very moment.


cheers!

Bottom line...it's a "personal" choice on what to believe.
Why does one believe in life after death?
People don't want to believe that the ONLY reason we're here is to make it better for the next generation. Life, to many people, is just a lot of hard work and they don't like to know that it all means nothing "afterwards".

Some days I don't even believe in life before death.

It all boils down to faith. You believe what you choose to believe based on your faith. But does it even matter what you believe so long as you live a good life and never do unnecessary harm?
