I Am more looking at the idea that physics and string theory model currently suggets there is 10 or 11 dimensions, whichever one you buy into. And we have no clue what happens in those upper dimensions (past 4 if you consider time to be one) if they exist. I could be open to a scientific explanation that the answer to an afterlife, may be held there. There is a lot of strange phenomena and brain activity anomalies that have been observed in people's brains at the moment of death that may be more than just a spike in brain activity.
Meh, who knows. Every time I lose someone close to me, I have trouble accepting they are just.... gone. And always hope there is that remote chance they are still sentient in some way. I guess I can kiss off the idea of sleep tonight... Lol

It can be sad, or scary for sure. But it can also be very interesting and exciting. Life would have no purpose if we had all the answers. As I mentioned I like to think about a lot of those things too. The trick is to not drive yourself crazy with the ideas. As I mentioned, if we did have the answers, there would be no point to anything. And we probably wouldn't be the mortal beings we are, capable of all the pitfalls and pleasures that come with being mortal.
