I think the OP's question is bigger than all of us. Depending on what an individual beleives dictates whether or not they beleive in an afterlife.
I always belevied the thought of a Heaven and a Hell were scare tactics, instituded into Christanity for the sake of controling a mass populace. Found out later that the Bible was editied by emporer Constitine ( Once Rome adopted Christanity as it religion ) to do that very thing.
Afterlife to me, like the Rabbai said is all about the works you do in this life. Be it big or small you can have an affect on the future or your afterlife.
But like i said the question is bigger than all of us, none of us will know till our time comes.
Now about our soul:
Ghosts, ( I've expereinced them ) why do those people have that afterlife? Being caught between here and there? Is that Hell? Reliving the same thing over and over? Or being stuck here confused?
What about the people who are not Ghosts? Does the soul return to where it came? Does it revert back to star stuff that we are all made of? Questions questions! I think i was here before, any show or artifact relating to Egypt feels familar to me. I think this feeling is common amongst people. Like the white kid who is obsessed with Japanese culture. Was he here before as a Japanese man or woman?
Im getting off track. My head feels like its gonna explode now...
