What I believe is different than what I think is true. Personally, I believe in God and heaven, etc., because I like to, and because I do. When I think about it in a non-religious context, however, the only thing that makes sense to me is that there is none of that, we just die and that's it. I rarely think about the second option, however, because the first is just much more pleasant to think of.

Even if there is life after death, what difference would that make? Knowing nothing about what would happen after you're dead does not hurt, I think.

wow, nearly half the people voted "YES, I do believe in after-life".
I voted no

here is the question for all you believers:
if you lived in a remote place, without TV, Internet or any other access to the media and no church either, would you still believe in the after life? I mean would you come up with the whole after-life idea by yourself?
If not, you are just a follower of the media/hollywood ideas. You might as well then believe that we're all just batteries and slaves to the computers(the matrix).

sorry if I offended anyone, but that's just my view on the after life

I do not believe in anything after death. There is really no proof of anything happening, only people that believe that they have
died and then come back to life saying that they saw a "light". THATS ALL, i think its mumbo jumbo when people say there is a heaven/hell,
and others( i have nothing against religions/beliefs) but , really we need proof (when i mean proof, facts)
if it is really true; really u cant say there is really anything after death,
u'll just have to wait until you pass way.......... So ill have to say MAYBE.
