[quote=Anonymous]The way I look at it is that before we were born, if it were possible to be conscious then, there would be no way for us to imagine the world we live in.  This world existed before we did.  Likewise, after we die, there's no way to know the next reality, if there is one or not.  For all we know, there could be another world waiting for us.  We can't comprehend all the possibilities.  It's also entirely possible there isn't an afterlife.  A lot of what people think of as energy or a spirit is really just the brain.  The brain sends impulses down the spine which animates the body. When the body dies, the candle is snuffed out. All movement stops.  Bodies are like cars except for what they are made of. Cars need a spark to start and to move, but when the spark or engine is turned off, the car still remains because it's made of metal. A body needs a spark or reaction to be alive, but when the spark is put out (death), the body doesn't stick around like a car because it's made of organic matter which will decompose.  What's left are basic elements like calcium and water which are released to become "one" with the rest of the world, universe, God, Mother Nature, or whatever you want to call it.  Those elements can get reused and become part  of a new life on this earth.[/quote]
