I agree that I entered hell in the last minute of the BOA Monday night....

But on a serious note, this is a debate that has been going on for eons, personally there are three things that suggest to me that the big sleep won't be the end of 'me'

1-Practically every philosophy and culture has independantly chosen to believe in life after death. Maybe its genetically hardwired into us?
2-There are so many examples of people that have returned from near death experiences and the general similarities of their experiences are interesting.
3-I have had two dreams where 'Fozzie' died, but 'I' kept on going. It was a wierd subjective experience but, for me, compelling.

Now this doesn't prove anything (life after death is pretty much unfalisifiable, just like ID), but if I had to bet on one or the other, I'd put my money on the afterlife...but maybe that is just my agnst talking

.

Here is 'good' book on this topic which I would recommend, and it turns out the whole book is online for free.
