No one knows. Therefore, why not live your life so that you can call yourself an honest and moral person and have no regrets when you die. Don't expect a last minute ticket out of Hell.

Nobody knows what happens to us when we die, or this concept of hell or heaven. Well by catholic mythology, i think as long as you live a good life, christian or not, youll go to heaven, or spend a few years in purgatory at the most, because comon, then over half of the world would be going to hell. Heaven would be like some deluxe snob club where only a few members were allowed in.\n\nBut realistically our concept of heaven and hell has grown out of control, its turned into a huge bribe, but hey i guess it works a lot of the time. The jews (the religion christianty evoloved out of) didnt have a strict conept of heaven or hell, they knew to live life good, and that god would punish them in life for unfaithfulness and sometimes the punishment would carry over to those that were close to them. They had some slight concept of bliss and punishment in the afterlife but it didnt consume all the time and thought as it does in christianity. Actually it sounds like it was tampered with somewhat by rulers and writers.\n\nI dont think jesus wants us to suffer, if anything i think hed give us a redo, in a soemwhat reincarntional concept., then again if jesus did exist and was god's son.\n\ndont worry about it so much and just try to live a good life by the golden rule.\n\ndont take naything form the bible literally, most of its to be taken out of context into your own consideration and recieve a message and apply it to your own life.

did it ever occur to anyone that what they believe will happen to them? i mean, if an atheist thinks that when they die, that's it, then that is probably what will happen to them. i'm just saying, if i die believing i'm gonna be a frog in my next life, it's MY belief, so it will be MY idea of the afterlife or heaven. it's the same as christians interpritation of heaven. some people think it's gonna be angels in diapers playing harps others think it's gonna be one big kegger...it's all depending on what you believe.

Death.\n\nWe're all equal once we're gone.

the real question here is: Do we actually die at all?\n\nSure, the functions of the body stop working, but they almost immediately begin to serve new functions.  Mainly, in the beginning, the processes of the body begin to immediately breakdown the body casing.  Once the body is dissolved, is becomes food and nutrient, which in turn serves to produce life, on many different levels.  \n\nAs for the "soul" who knows if it even exists.  We do know that the body's cells are full of energy.  We are also taught that energy cannot be created of destroyed.  So, the energy merely moves along, we could infer.  Perhaps the energy energizes other living creatures, perhaps it spurs a violent collision of atoms and particles resulting in a chaotic tropical storm.  perhaps too it leaves the earth alltogether and enters another dimension of life, after-life, or after-death realm.  Hell, maybe it even retains it's consciousness.  \n\nThen again, maybe nothing happens.  Maybe it's like a dreamless sleep that you never wake up from.  If that's the case, would you ever know that were dead?

I'm never really sure I do exist. I wake up and live my life and I do the same thing everyday and I wonder if it's all just a dream and I'm going to wake up and do it again. In my honest opinion, life is not truly worth living in the sense that we are all going to die anyways. Think about it. So we know the wonderful things about physics and we understand gravity, but does it really matter? Not really. It's because we all die in the end. I'm probably just using up the air. But I'll tell you, I'm having a good time of it. I don't know if there is something after this or if when I die I die. And not knowing is scary. I'd rather just live and enjoy because this may be all I get. Whoever I am. Below is something I wrote that more clearly explains my opinion. Or maybe it is just more confusing.

People who have had near death experiences no that consciousness continues after we are clinically dead. Many people have reported floating above their dead body on the operating table and being able to give clear details of what was going on around them, like what the doctors where doing and saying.\n\nWe lived as conscious beings before we obtained physical bodies here on earth and we will continue to live as conscious beings after our physical body dies.

Yes, your body is of this Earth.  After you die, you will never need it again.  But you will be born into a brand new spirit body and that journey lasts forever.

I believe that when we die we live on in some way. When I was a toddler I lived in a house where strange things happened, some centered around me and I told my mother and father that there was a lady waiting for me at the top of the stairs. It turned out that a lady had died in that house. I have also seen a ghost cat which I actually thought was my own, so imagine my surprise when I went to look for it and mine was outside in the garden. I dreamt that my grandmother was going to die before she did. I also saw a black figure in my cousins house which has since been seen by other family members.

I can see that you are not having all the fun that you can stand.\nWhen or if you decide to recieve Christ as your Saviour then life will take on some meaning and you will begin to understand what is going on here on planet earth.  When you die, it either gets very very good or very very bad.

I really believe we go to heaven.  \n\nMy grandmother passed away when my mother was only four years old.  Just recently my mother passed away.  One week before my mother passed away she would have dreams and she would speak to her mother in her sleep.  I really believe there is a better place after we pass on.  A place where your sickness is completely gone and you are young and beautiful.

Yeh its true there will be life after death and that life will be depending on our performance in this life..and also depends upon what our thought during the time of death...So its advisable to think and act only good sothat we can get an excellent life next time..

What happens when you die depends on what happens before you die. The Bible classifies the whole human race into two broad categories-the saved and the lost. What happens to the saved is radically different from what happens to the lost. \nA. For the saved\n\nThe Bible is abundantly clear on this point. When the saved die, they go directly into the presence of the Lord. At this point we remember the words of Jesus to the thief on the cross, "I tell you the truth, today you will be with me in paradise" (Luke 23:43). This appears to be a straightforward promise that at the moment of death the repentant thief would pass from his life of crime and his agonizing death into the realm called "paradise." This would seem to contradict the teaching called "soul-sleep" which implies that at death a believer "sleeps" in a kind of suspended animation until the day of the resurrection. How could the thief be that very day in paradise if his soul were to go to sleep when he died? At the moment of death the believer passes immediately into the personal presence of Jesus Christ. This is our hope and comfort as we stand at the graveside of a loved one. Paul said he had a desire to depart and to "be with Christ, which is better by far" (Philippians 1:23). He also said, "We are confident, I say, and would prefer to be away from the body (that is, separated from the body by death) and at home with the Lord" (II Corinthians 5:8). These are the words of a man who believed that heaven would begin at the moment of his death. Was Paul looking forward to an unconscious slumber after his death? No! He was looking forward to the personal presence of Jesus Christ.\n\nBut that's not the whole story. The soul goes to be with the Lord in heaven and the body is buried until the day of resurrection when Jesus returns to the earth. I Thessalonians 4:14 says, "We believe that Jesus died and rose again and so we believe that God will bring with Jesus those who have fallen asleep in him." Here you have both sides of the truth. Christians who die are said to be "with Jesus" (that's the soul in the conscious presence of the Lord) and "have fallen asleep in him" (that's the body which "sleeps" in the grave). Listen to Paul's description of that great reunion of body and soul: "For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first" (I Thessalonians 4:16). Here is a clear promise of future bodily resurrection for the believer. First Corinthians 15:51-55 adds the crucial fact that our bodies will be "raised imperishable"-that is, with a body that is perfect in every way, free from the vestiges of death and decay. In this life our bodies wear out, like a clock continually running down, but when we are raised, it will be with bodies that can never decay, never wear out, never suffer injury, never grow old, never get sick, and thank God, never die.\n\n\nWhat Happens after Death?"\n\nIt is clear that during the test during the life of this world, people will be clearly divided in three groups: 1) those, who excel in piety, truthfulness, justice and submission to God; 2) those, who excel in transgression, rejection and are clearly averse to accepting God's truths; and 3) those, who are neither clearly among the first nor clearly among the second group.\n\nAs for the first two groups, these are people, who are themselves witnesses upon their own behavior. These are people, whose ultimate destiny - whether it be heaven or hell - is decided during the life of this world and they start enjoying or suffering the fruits of their deeds, immediately after death. If falling in the first category, they shall be in a state of blissful slumber till the Day of Rising, while if falling in the second category, they shall be in a
