I just read this -- I had asked this question a while ago:
Quote:
Question: I want to believe in the afterlife but I have no personal experience to draw upon so I am assuming for now that we just fade into black when we die. Can you comment?
Answer: I'm a big proponent of personal experience in determining how things are so I understand why you cannot believe there is an afterlife. But you also have no personal experience with "fading to black" as you call it so why make that your default belief? Just say, "I don't know what happens when we die" and leave it at that until you get there.

You just blew my mind. Seriously. I got chills reading that simple, yet so profound response.
