Of course, that raises the question about the difference of religion v philosophy again.

It's (your theory, more or less) an idea that I always found comforting. Course if the energy did transfer or evolve, what would happen to your personality or sense of self? It would most like be gone too, so you wouldn't really 'know' one way or another.

Course it could be replaced with something else. Like a sense of 'oneness' with all other energy per se. Or an overwhelming wisdom and peace (through the greater understanding or perspective). It's a popular enough idea.
To me it isn't trying to match it to anything. And I certainly don't necessarily believe my theory. I hold the belief more that when you die... die. I am simply open to the idea, that things may be bigger and more complex than we may know.

In a perfect world, we become like Q, and just kind gallop the cosmos at will, getting all the answers, whilst becoming a thorn in the Enterprise-D crews side....lol.
