Scientifically, yes, ther is life after death. Energy cannot be created nor destroyed. Our vey essence when you get past all the muscle and organ and flesh, is energy. Science has proved this as well. Most people call this enegy a soul. So even though our body can be damaged beyond repair, our souls cannot. Our energy cannot be destroyed, therefore we must exist in some way in some form after our death. I persoanlly believe in Heaven and God and the Bible and all that, but when you get to the bare essentials, there's your proof in an afterlife of some sort.

One LifeVoted for by Kegger.
No, I don't think there is. Life is life, we have one and we have to make the best of it. Love fully and commit fully. This sounds really depressing, but if you finally get to the end of your life, and for whatever reason, you realise there is no God, and you've wasted half your life pleasing this entity, you'd be pretty annoyed. Well I would be anyway. I'd rather live my life in a way I see is fit, worry about the after-life, when I get to the afterlife.
This doesn't mean I don't think about it, I think about it all the time, but I'd rather people made the best of their own lives, instead of going to War etc etc, because they believe this will please this God or that God. I don't mind people who are religious, but for one normal religious person you find, you seem to find another ten ready to shove it down your throat.
And this doesn't mean I lack morals, or believe that you should go around doing what you want, when you want because you'll never be judged about it, but rather you excerise control over your life.

yes AND no...Voted for by Door on the Left.
These three basic tenets of my beliefs are in accordance, and conjunction, even, with most major religions and schools of spiritual and philosophical thought, modern psychology (specifically in relation to the collective unconscious and shared archetypes); and gives an explanation for previously unexplained metaphysical phenomena, such as telepathy, precognition, and telekinesis.
1.) We are extensions of the same source, a oneness of life, experiencing itself subjectively through illusory dreamscape partisans of individuality, deceiving itself in to multiplicity for the sake of one- entertaining distraction in a realm of the potentially monotonous and lonely eternal existence, and two- to understand the oneness that we are a part of in pieces, for simplified self-reflection through dissection.
For reference, see basic Buddhist and Existential belief structures, The Holographic Principle, and the psychological works of Carl Gustav Jung, in regard to the 'collective unconscious' and shared subconscious archetypes.
2.) Space, time, and potentially perceived dimensions are infinite, thus anything that can exist will exist eventually, and so we exist in a multiverse, including multiple possible (both probable and improbable, in relation to our own perceived position) pasts, presents, and futures. This extends to the first tenet of a oneness deceiving itself, as multiverses birthing multiverses.
Fot reference, see basic models for stacked dimensions in regard to quantum physics, and the Many-Worlds Interpretation of multiverses (MWI), the Super-String Theory in regard to infinitely coiled and stacked dimensions, and the 'M' Theory.
3.) We reflect the whole of our presently shared and interpreted probable realities of pasts, presents (in regard to perceived current relative circumstance) and futures (speaking in regard to a perception of one linear space-time) through our perceptions, upon our psyches' and bodies' associatively, as our environments, in a holographic manner, with each piece reflecting the whole, and the whole reflecting each piece of our own comparative position compared to the multiverse, while simultaneously reflecting the whole of ours, and others' possible realities, distinctly correlated as the specific relation of our current probable time-space specific circumstance to the probable, and improbable possible realities.
For reference, see basic Buddhist and Existential belief structures, The Holographic Principle, and the complete psychological works of Carl Gustav Jung.
