I dont believe in God or anything like this, but if I were about to die I would surely pray something to get help.
Why? Because death is the ultimate fear of human race. Why? Because we have no idea whats happening after we die. If we were not afraid of death, that would be total chaos everywhere. When you have nothing to loose...
And, the human nature need/want explanations to everything he doesnt understand. Thats why we created Gods.
Many people refuse to believe there's nothing after death. Why would it have something? If there's something, then there's something for every living thing on Earth. Human race is not more important than anything else.
Iam sure there's nothing after death. Like sleeping forever. No more consciousness of the mind. Pitch black, for ever and ever and ever.
For the rest of the story, ask Neo or Morpheus.

hahaha. 'life' after death. classic. no matter what you believe in isn't that an oxymoron? if it turns out there is something wouldn't it be called an 'afterlife'. you know, after life. it's a bit like asking if you can die once you're dead.

as you get older you wish there will be something else.
Otherwise I have wasted 90% of my time and would like another go please.

I definitely think there will be a de-briefing afterwards with a qualified councillor. Small groups of 6 or so, talking about how they found the earth experience, and what suggestions there might be for improving it for future users.
The coffee will of course be tepid and weak.

The Biblical account:
"Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and the sea was no more. And I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Behold, the dwelling place of God is with man. He will dwell with them, and they will be his people, and God himself will be with them as their God. He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away.”"And the one who spoke with me had a measuring rod of gold to measure the city and its gates and walls. The city lies foursquare, its length the same as its width. And he measured the city with his rod, 12,000 stadia. Its length and width and height are equal. He also measured its wall, 144 cubits by human measurement, which is also an angel's measurement. The wall was built of jasper, while the city was pure gold, clear as glass. The foundations of the wall of the city were adorned with every kind of jewel. The first was jasper, the second sapphire, the third agate, the fourth emerald, the fifth onyx, the sixth carnelian, the seventh chrysolite, the eighth beryl, the ninth topaz, the tenth chrysoprase, the eleventh jacinth, the twelfth amethyst. And the twelve gates were twelve pearls, each of the gates made of a single pearl, and the street of the city was pure gold, transparent as glass."
"And I saw no temple in the city, for its temple is the Lord God the Almighty and the Lamb. And the city has no need of sun or moon to shine on it, for the glory of God gives it light, and its lamp is the Lamb. By its light will the nations walk, and the kings of the earth will bring their glory into it, and its gates will never be shut by day—and there will be no night there. They will bring into it the glory and the honor of the nations. But nothing unclean will ever enter it, nor anyone who does what is detestable or false, but only those who are written in the Lamb's book of life."
The garden of Eden (earth) was originally intended to be the eternal dwelling place of man. When man sinned against God, Man was cast out of the garden (or, cut off from the presence of God). God will restore the garden (the entire earth) and his believers will live a physical existence forever upon the restored earth in the direct presence of God.
That is what I believe.
