None.
When your put to rest in your grave your body rots, becoming food for the worms, which in turn becomes part of the earth, which then becomes nutrients for the plants, which feeds the animals. Your life is returned to nature, your body becomes norishiment, your soul feeds the world.
I prefer this simple fact to sitting in the clouds with a little harp.

Your last second may stretch out into what seems like an eternity, and you're left to contemplate every aspect of your life.
If you've led one that you feel was good, Heaven. If you've been an asshole, Hell. either way, you're stuck thinking about it.
It's a nice theory, I guess. May or may not be true.

theres two things i think would happen first off when a person is born there soul is in balanced which means 50% good and 50% evil when a person does a good deed there percentage in goodness will go up depending on what the deed was same goes for an evil deed and when a person dies depending on the percentage of the persons soul they will go to heaven or hell but if a persons soul is in balance when they die the grim reaper A.K.A. DEATH will come to take and examine your so and choose heaven or hell thats my first tought my second is that you just lay in the ground for all eternity i like my first it makes the most sence
I don't see how people can fear nothingness. It's nothingness, you don't have a conciousness to experience it, it can be neither better nor worse than conciousness, because you're gone. There is no more you.
Yeah, people say infinity is impossible to imagine, but really, it's our own finite lives that are more difficult.mdk31 said:
Then again, logically, non-existence is not harmful or sad or anything. It just is. Or rather, is not.
You can't put a quality on something that isn't.
Nothing, to quote Dawkins not exact but whatever "I was dead for billions of years before I was born, who am I to dare object to death" and frankly the concept of etnernal life is by definition alone infinatley more terrifying than whatever concept nothingness is.
Theres no such cosmic justice or unyielding otherworldly power in nature in life so im to beleive there is in death, nope sorry proof or bust.

Hell yes, now that is an afterlife! You feast and you fight, you fight and you feast. The best part? You die or get mangled while fighting in Valhalla, boom! Good as new back at the feast hall. Or at least that is my understanding of it. Yes I am aware the fighting portion is in preparation for Ragnorok. Perfect "afterlife" for the warrior.Simriel said:
That or ascend to the sky and become a star in the constellation Draco.
These are just what would be my ideal afterlife scenarios.
In truth though, I just have to think there is something, otherwise there really would be no point restricting our behavior during life.
There's a legitimate point in that statement. I believe that "heaven" is based on human "morals" that are believed to be inalienable. Restricting our behavior is because we're following said morals exactly as we're told to, like the obedient littleDrake the Dragonheart said:
