Most likely reincarnation. Personally I believe that Earth is the playpen that God has put us in; giving us limitations, problems to solve, fascinations to toy our minds with, and to decide between good and evil and whether or not to believe in God. He's covered up His tracks so perfectly that there will never be any proof of His existence; only through faith will you meet Him and thus a large part in our playing. Only until, if ever, judgment day comes will we ever know a different realm.

In my opinion, Humans are just another species of animals competing for survival. I dont believe people have souls or spirits or any other nonsense which lives on after you die. Your brain/mind is your life, and when you die, so does your brain and that's that. IMO, there is no afterlife, reincarnation, hot sex with supermodels (damn...).

Now to put that in perspective, everyone knows that living things die. When people kill a fly (which is a living thing essentially the same as humans), do people believe that those flys have an afterlife? that they are reincarnated? that they have hot sex after they are dead?

Of course not! So why should our beliefs on life after death for humans be any different?


As a side note, I believe the concept of life after death was created by primitive man who needed a way to put order into society. If society knew for a fact that once you die, that's the end, then people would do horrible things without regard. Now with religion and life after death, people are told to life virtuous lives and to strive to have a good afterlife which is pretty much a false sense of security and a big illusion.

I don't picture of sex with flies as an afterlife.

Nothing. Absolutely nothing. No white lights, no darkness, just nothing. Like being unconscious. Just nothing. You won't know it though, because you will be nothing.

Hold on a minute; my alternate personna is in the process of returning from a cruise along the River Styx. When he gets back...and after I have to fight the Skeleton Souless Horde...again, dammit, I'll let you know what he says.
