      No, not really. I don’t believe in heaven or hell or ghost etc. But whenever anything dies it’s always recycled back into other things that are living. For example, if a bird dies and falls to the ground it will feed the worms, and the bacteria, and fertilise the soil and benefit lots of living things around it.

      But no one really knows and there are lots of opinions and different beliefs among scientists just as there are in any job.

      My scientific brain tells me that I shouldn’t, and I’m not really very religious so I don’t believe it for that reason either. But I would like to think that death isn’t the end. I would like to think that I would be reunited with people I have loved and lost and be able to look down on my children and grandchildren etc that are still living. But who knows?! I guess that you are technically alive after death because you have passed on your DNA to your children, so a part of you lives in them.

      Science won’t allow me to believe…but If I leave science out of my mind I am sure there is always new life after death…everything is recycling…and as Tiffany said in example dead things will become reason of life for others…..

      and believe it or not I had witnessed in past during my college time a incident with one of my friend (Girl) who was in possession of a unknown Man’s voice for almost 12 hours…I was there and I had seen that with my eyes. she was completely different and strong character during that time…..

      so, sometimes we need to believe this part of science….

      No.

      After death the interactions between the cells in our brain and body are not the same as they were during our lifetime. The cells will die and the body will decay. We know this because scientific tests and experiments can record this process.

      It would be nice if there was a life after death but I think as long as I try to be good to other people during my life then it doesn’t really matter if there is or is not a life after death, so I don’t consider it.
