I guess we won't know. It isn't a matter of belief. Whatever is there for us after we die, if there is anything at all, will be there regardless of what we believe.

The same as any person, no matter their religion. Religion is more of a method of brainwashing that parents have passed down to their kids for hundreds of years to tell them stuff like "You'll go blind!" and nonsense, and then the kids usually end up falling into it and repeating.

Anyway...We all decompose, and pass our elements on to whatever uses them next. FACT.

You'll be subject to an etirenty of pain throbbing hell.

Which is HIGHLY unfair compared to what you did on earth.

But that's if you believe in things you CAN'T KNOW exist.

God said that if you're guilty of one sin, you're guilty of them all. We all deserve hell. However, God said there is a way out of that.

By repenting (asking God for forgiveness and turning the other way) and accepting Jesus Christ into your life. Then you are saved by grace (which means undeserved favor).

Am I talking about God? No silly! It's Santa! Even though they rely on the same principle of belief.

I know it's hard for the average person to grasp abstract thoughts but take a listen...

Space never ends or begins! Liek omgwtfdude!?

So isn't it possible, nor say probable that time never began or ends?

No, space and time had a definite beginning roughly 15 billion years ago, and all evidence and laws we have indicate it will end.

It all depends on what you outline done with your body in your will. If you want a certain ceremony or whatever done with your body, you outline it, or your family members choose for you.

These debates sometimes leave me seriously in distress in some capacity or another, either because I find so much fault with myself or with others.

Time ends if and when there are no more events...if the big rip occurred, there would be no more time. If information is destroyed when it enters a black hole, there is no more time inside a black hole. If the universe does not end by the big rip or the big crunch, it will end by heat death, though I'm not certain that time would stop in a heat-dead universe.

I was going for any particular end; whether big rip, big crunch, or heat death; but I'll omit the big crunch from any further arguments unless it's about our ignorance of dark energy.

So magically those laws prove that the earth is 15 billion years old? And can you explain what these arguments are. I'm not good at science at all (Now any atheist that might say "thats why you're a Christian", shut up now)
