Do you go to heaven or hell?
Heaven or pergatory (one definition of pergatory is a one year repentance and then your soul is "deleted"...for the truly evil)?
Living but in another universe/planet?
You go up to heaven to "chill" w/ G-d and learn the meaning of life and how the universe was formed or pergatory (for the evil)? --A mix of Judaism and my own little spin (the heaven/pergatory is Judaism, but the learning the two things which mortal man will never find are mine. :))
Reincarnation as a human?

I don't want a poll, because I am sure there are other beliefs...what do you think?

There is no heaven, everyone goes to hell, if you believe in Satan in your life time then you shall work at his side, if not you shall be burnt for eternity.

I'll tell you when I get there. I'm not really worried about it.

It's divided by career choice. Guess where lawyers and politicians go.

According to my religion you either get reincarnated or if you were really good, you would reach enlightment.

I say *poof* when you die that's it. No after-life. At least that's what I'm hoping for, because if Hell exists, I'm screwed.

Zippy, dont' stress over it... you'll find out in due time. Sooner or later everyone finds out, I just prefer later to sooner. :)

Nothing, I am simply fertilizer for the next plant that happens to be seeded above my grave, contributing to the endless cycle of life

I think it depends entirely on your relationship with your God. If you deny God or acknowledge God but ignore his guidance, you will be very miserable and lonely in what awaits you in the afterlife. You haven't made friends with God. If you say OK, I'll listen and talk to God and try to listen for God's instruction, you will be happy in the existence that follows physical death. You have a friend waiting for you.

I always think of God as a friend and support. Whatever you have leaving this world is what you will have when you get there. It's a matter of you saying, OK... Your will be done, or You don't exist... My will be done.

I'm not really worried about it, I know what I believe, I'm just curious as to other people's beliefs.

Call it conservation of energy, but life is more than just an amalgamation of molecules. I believe that our soul is like an energy that will be released, to merge with the rest of the universe. I don't personally spend anytime thinking about heaven or a hell. I don't believe either exists, its the old 'carrot on a stick' trick. Focus your energies on living and living with those around you. Just make sure that at the end of your days you can look back and honestly say that you have known love, and your life will not have been wasted.
