There Is An 'afterlife' After Death
You can use Religion, Spirituality, whatever floats your boat, to answer this question. If you're not going to elaborate your answers, do not post. I am here to gain knowledge, i am not here to know your opinion, i don't care about your opinion, i want to know why you have that opinion, and what evidence you have for that opinion, etc.

There is not much point in the human mind trying to work this out until we work out how to use the full capacity of our brains.

We will probably never know.
If there is it is obvious that it clearly wants to left alone. If there is an afterlife we will only find our about it "afterlife".. GET IT ? Its in the name.

Well truly if you want spirituality then i believe there is a god. To me, and most of the population of the world, there being a god is the only logical explanation to us for the universe existing. It says that those who believe in him shall saved and live in a perfect eternity with him. Even people who don't use spirituality or religion some just cant accept that after this life they will not "live" again even in another form of life. People just don't like to believe that once they die they just rot in the ground. Most people will say there is an after life whether or not they believe in a god or gods.

It depends on what religion you have, because if you believe in "Jehovah Witness" then you believe that after death, you will go to "paradise"

etc...

Dang. Grenache nailed it. Good job. I agree with him so there is no sense in re-posting.

If you DO NOT believe in an afterlife and it turns out you're wrong and the religious are right then you have EVERYTHING to lose in the end. If you DO believe in an afterlife and it turns out it was just a myth then sure you're dead but you're no worse off than everyone else who just ends up dead too, so you have NOTHING to lose in the end.

Believing in the afterlife is a reward whether you win or lose in the end - you either get eternal happiness OR you get a little peace of mind before you ultimately croak like everyone else.

 why would you have everything to lose if it was a fact? If it is real then It won't matter regardless what you believe.

"You can use Religion, Spirituality"
"I am here to gain knowledge"
"i am not here to know your opinion"
I think you answered your own question chow

I don't know of any good reason to believe there is. It's a strange term anyway. After life comes death. If there is life after life then it is just a continuation of life.

I think that no religion has proven anything and that there may or may not be an afterlife and although i do believe something must happen to you when you die, i don't think anyone will figure out or has figured out exactly what happens when you die, and the only way to find that out is to die so well just have to wait and see

I don't think so. There's no evidence to suggest the existence of an afterlife.

Also - at what other time would there be an 'afterlife' other than after death? Knitpicking perhaps - but there you go.

There is an afterlife if you believe in that sort of thing.

 WHY, i hate it when people don't elaborate. please don't post on my debates if your going to answer like that...I'm here to gain knowledge. That is what a debate is, is it not? if all debates revolved around a question, and yes or no, id rather hand out multiple choice sheets instead of having a 'conversation' so to speak.
