is there any scientific proof or evidence that existence after death is a possibility?

not the field of science, totally different realms of magisteria.  Science will never have an answer.  Science can only say that near-death experiences can be explained by oxygen loss to the brain.

there is no real evidence of life after death, this is all rubbish

Philosophers have wrangled with this question for centuries and I comes down to this:  You simply cannot prove that you exist.  You can't even prove that the outside world exists.  After all, 'you' could just be a brain in a vat somewhere being stimulated by electrodes that make you 'see', 'feel', and 'touch'.  What philosophers have come up with is the concept of a "Properly Basic Belief".  It means that if there is no evidence whatsoever to the contrary, then you can probably safely assume that it's true.  However, that doesn't mean you can prove it.  And of course you have to be open to the possibility that evidence may turn up at some time.  So until there is evidence that I don't exist, I'll stick with the philosophers and say it's a "Properly Basic Belief" that I exist.  And of course, there's the old standby of "I think, therefore I am."

Yay, a question directed towards my beliefs! I don't have a concrete belief about why we are alive....but I think its because we want to be, and because we want to learn. Most humans seem to crave knowledge and what better way to gain it than by living? As to the after life I believe in a place called Summerland which is where spirits wait to be reincarnated.

You make a valid point! But if there is a afterlife I would like to think that it is whatever one would want it to be. For all we know we could all already be immortal and this reality is just a training ground for our true selves to take our experiences and the things we learn to the next phase of our existence.

No. It is true that we are somewhere when we die, but it is not a fact because we cannot probe it scientifically.\n\nIt is true for me because of the things I have seen, but it cannot be a fact because I can't probe it.

Ok your question makes no sense, but is interesting. There is more to life after death than a "hereafter." There's a heaven and hell, and yes, both are real.\nI'm sorry for you that you don't believe in the God I know. I don't worry about my life because I know I'm taken care of.

The scientific acceptance of the idea of rebirth is largely about the exact definition of rebirth. While it's quite obvious that the human body is gone after the death, and cannot be recycled, proving a rebirth into a different body would be quite complicated, since you'd need some detailed evidence of things happening to people in previous life. Modern science or not, there has not been enough evidence yet of anyone living remembering vivid facts from their previous lives.

The afterlife (or life after death) is a generic term referring to a continuation of existence, typically spiritual and experiential, beyond this world, or after death.  Most religions have theories about the afterlife.

The "just look around you" argument is not a proof, but a restatement of faith. You could equally easily use the same argument to 'prove' the seeding of life on Earth by intelligent extra-terrestrials.\nThe great-great-great-great grandfather argument is not convincing either: for sure I can't prove that he existed back then, but how would that help me prove that God exists right now?\n\nThis is the 'ontological' proof:\n\n1. We humans have this idea of an infinitely perfect being that we call God. \n2. Existence is one of the perfections. \n3. Therefore, being infinitely perfect, God must exist. \n\nIs this convincing? Descartes - who proves his own existence simply by demonstrating his ability to doubt (I think therefore I am) - says: \n\n"How would I understand that I doubt...unless there were some idea in me of a more perfect being, by comparison with which I might recognise my defects?"\n\n"It would be impossible for me to exist, being of such a nature as I am (namely, having in me the idea of God), unless God did in fact exist"

Life could be a theory too...how do you prove that you exist? Try reading Descartes' Meditation...

Science can't prove or disprove the existance of God. What proves God is the change that is evident when someone receives Jesus as their Savior. It is a life-changing event! You can't disprove experience. You can't tell me that what I know & experience in my life isn't real. And the same things I've experienced in my relationship with the Lord is being experienced by thousands of others just like me throughout the world. You can't tell me that what I KNOW is real is all in my mind. Just because you didn't personally go to the moon doesn't mean that it wasn't experienced by others. It happened. It is a fact. So is my relationship with the living God of this universe. He lives in me. End of controversy! <*)))><

This depends entirely on your system of belief.  We all wish we knew what happened when we die.  It is hard to believe that we will just be no more.  Mostly this is because that is the worst possible thing that could happen, to simply not exist.  Many people fantasize about elaborate afterlives because they are scared of this, or have been brought up to believe that.  It all depends on what your spirit now tells you.  The only way to find out is to die.  That is something that we all want to put off as long as possible, just in case.

"Yup. There is nothing after death. It is just like switching off a light bulb."\n\nbut on the other hand the electrical circuitry and infrastructure that powered the light bulb is still there even when the bulb (earthly body) burns out . Bung a new bulb in and who knows?\n\nI'm inclined to believe that when this earthly body burns out the power that motivated it is still there - it's either latent or seeking for a new form.  The "light bulb" is just the external manifestation of thousands of miles of hidden cable, switches, relays, et c, and just because the bublb goes it doesn't negate the existence of all this stuff....
