strange one, is this.
unfortantly, i think we are buggered, this is it.
however, i also believe , a bit like dreams, you may re-live aspects of your life on a sort of loop.
So hell would be bad times and heaven ,constant memories of childhood, parents, friends just good days.
who knows?

Kids,tired of being bothered by your pesky parents?
Then leave home, get a job & pay your own bills, while you still know everything.

I think it is fairly obvious that there is no afterlife in the religious sense. Even the resurrection of Christ was added later as an embellishment to the crucifixion story.
However, as we likely don't know everything about physics or the realities of existence, it would be premature to dismiss the chance of a continued existence beyond death via some mechanism either natural, or more likely, engineered by forces hitherto unknown.
Why this might be or what form it could take is open to speculation, but with absolutely no information available, it really is just stabbing in the dark.
The probability is that we are strictly corporeal lifeforms which exist as part of the greater fabric of the universe and have a limited span which ends with death and that is about it.

If an afterlife did exist, isn't it somewhat presumptuous to assume that it would be pleasant? Hell is obviously a human fantasy, but we wouldn't know who made the rules or if it for our benefit nonetheless.

'Nothing' is an unfathomable concept to humans as we live in a physical world/dimension. We can't envisage or conceptualise nothing - it's not black, it's nothing at all. There will be no existence. The upside is - you won't know. You will know nothing at all. Weird isn't it?
Presumably the reason we invented the afterlife, plus the obvious reason that we're all pretty poor usually.

Obviously, totally different for the Queen though.

Red and Blue Army!

for those brought up in Addiscombe & Ashburton school in the 70s, the same situation was the ' roof over the outdoor swimming pool'

I went there from 78 and vaguely remember a fibre glass structure. Worst was the canoes which regularly stuck fibre glass splinters in your arms legs and torso. Bloomin child cruelty nowadays

i will give you a million quid if you can get a coherent sensible answer from the Late Patrick. Or from any other gods, spirits, ghosts or demons.

''Religion was invented when the first scoundrel met the first idiot - Voltaire

Well Cryst, from you i detect a fear of death and an existential worry. Fear not. The oblivion we all go to is a harmless, painless nothingness. Like a very deep sleep. Without any annoying gods on horseback doing stupid things with thunderbolts.
