re: Do you believe in an afterlife?

Afterlife. The human body is so complex and miraculous, there is no way that it wasn’t created by a supreme being..

Everything you see was ultimately created by gravity and nuclear fusion.

The Universe only got nearly unlimited chances to create a world and a species like us.
To steal from poster, JustinBRLA, in the How Old is Earth thread:
quote:
How is this hard for you to believe? Do you realize how infinitely large the universe is? Beyond anything we can fathom. The sequence of events that had to occur for life on Earth to occur is mind-boggling... but the Universe is large enough that for it to have happened SOMEWHERE is not mind-boggling at all. It's similar to the Lotto but on a far grander scale. Let me put it in perspective for you...
In our galaxy alone there are an estimated 100 BILLION stars. That's 100 BILLION potential Suns, with potential planetary systems, that include planets in the goldilocks zone where life is possible. And that's just in our galaxy. Our galaxy is one of an estimated 200 BILLION galaxies. Milky Way is average size, so lets just say 100 BILLION stars is average for a galaxy. That's 100 billion times 200 billion potential Suns with potential planetary systems...
So while the odds of the required events taking place anywhere in the Universe are massive.... they aren't so massive that it couldn't happen once in 100 billion times 200 billion potential places.
The odds of winning the Powerball are massive, but if 100 billion times 200 billion tickets were sold with the odds of winning being one in 292,000,000.... there would be approximately 68,493,150,700,000 winners.
My point is, when you use the word "chance"... consider the odds and the sheer size of the Universe as we know it
All that to say, I'm not sure what happens. I don't think I'll ever have that answer. My strongest feeling now is that there is nothing after death, just like there was nothing for me before birth.
We might only get the number of years we get on this Earth, and that is what motivates me to make the most out of my life in terms of fulfillment and enjoyment.
I hope I'm wrong and there's some universal force that brings us all together or whatever there is out there, but I don't think anyone on this planet has the answer nor do I believe we will ever find that answer in my lifetime.
