If there is life after death, then why does the church claim that there are different criteria on the other side of the portal, and from our point of view there is no life?
If a person died, it turns out that he died… Even if we meet there, we won't even "remember" it. So after all, everything is banal: the screen went off and that's it.
From a scientific point of view, death is the end of an organism's life, we can't somehow check the existence of an afterlife, but based on the principle called Occam's razor, we can say that relying on non – obvious, paranormal phenomena is not worth it.
As for what awaits us after death according to religious canons, each religion speaks differently, some speak about rebirth. and some of them say that we will live in the Garden of Eden, see all the dead loved ones and will not need anything, or we will go to hell and burn in a boiling cauldron for eternity, to each his own, you know.
Earth is purgatory, and it is a branch of hell…
We'll just hang around here until we get past it…. All religions say this, read it carefully… All the fuss…..
Death is the separation of the soul from the body. Mind, reason, feelings-this is all that is inherent in the soul, so the memory and thoughts of a person will remain with him, they are in the soul, so they will not die with the body. The soul is as if dressed in a body, each member of the soul corresponds to the same member of the body, i.e. each part of the soul is “dressed” in some part of the body. For example, the eyes of the soul are clothed with the eyes of the body, and through the eyes of the body the soul sees, through the ears of the body the soul hears, etc.
The Church does not claim that everything is different there. Why? The same people are there. The Church, on the contrary, asserts that while a person is still here on earth, through union with God in the Sacraments, for example, in Communion, he can experience sensations inherent in an already “changed” person, not an old one, but a new one. We can experience love (meaning not physical lust, but virtue), humility, and wisdom even now.
