Although there is no evidence for the afterlife as gaining evidence is impossible, however a lot of people believe strongly that there is one, this is in both religious people and non religious people. This is because the concept of non existence is impossible to conceive as we have never done it before. And as we cant understand it then it seems that an Afterlife must exist, because how can we be nothing?
But I find a flaw with this idea, a complete contradiction. If we think we cannot be destroyed entirely then surely we've never been created, we've always existed. So to have an afterlife then there must be a "beforelife".
So this theory would mean that our "spirits" would all have been created in the same instance. Both the ones that live now, the ones that have lived before us and the ones that will live after us. And so once our spirits carrys on to the afterlife, what do they do then? It could be a form of reincarnation that the ones that live after us are actually spirits that went before and travel through the afterlife into the "beforelife" and then become living again.
An endless cycle. We have always existed and so time isn't relevant to our "spirits" but only to our temporary bodies that we travel between. But given that time doesn't effect our "spirits", what happens to our memory from the life we lived when we pass into the Afterlife. If we have already lived an infinite amount of times before and will do after then why would we remember lives if we can just relive again and again.
So maybe the theory that we'll get to visit our loved ones once we die isn't probable or maybe we will visit them but not in a way we can comprehend. We would be in a place where time doesn't exist, where every memory and every spirit is everywhere all at once.
This is just my mind going off on one but hopefully it makes you think logically about what having an Afterlife means. Which sounds strange especially as you can only believe in an Afterlife not be certain.
