Interesting, I don't know what's beyond death and at the end of the day... no one truely knows. We rely on faith, religion to teach us and to tell us and we believe theories and believe me, there are many, many theories out there and it isn't down to basically either heaven, hell, reincarnation or 'nothingness'. There are other theories out there which are either based around those or are totally on their own.
I was watching Big Brother the other week (yeah yeah..) and one of the guys was talking about his believes and I honestly can't remember exactly what his theory was but it did interest me and made me think, it was a theory I hadn't heard of before. He said he believes in God, God is love and he has love therefor God is inside of him. He is God and he was saying that when we die, we are moved into another human being and it wasn't 'basic' reincarnation he was describing, such as if you're bad you turn into a snail or whatever it is... it was something more deep than that such as your bad traits in old life, life we have now turns into bad traits in a new life which is why there are some people who look pretty but are not nice people. I can't remember exactly but what he said made a lot of sense, if I find out I'll post or if anyone finds out please let me know.
Anyway.. I'm not a religious person and I'm more inclinded to say death is death. End of. But I'm not closing a door on it completely. I'm unsure. After all, who truely knows? No one because when someone dies they can't return and tell us.
The only people who have a genuine idea of what death is like are those who have become close to death themselves and have actually stopped breathing for a few seconds, or maybe even a few minutes.
Anyway.. sorry I'm babbling.
