What Do You Expect to Happen When You Die? And why?

What I remember from before I was born?

I've tried to do an afterlife, but am stuck pre-Christ as far as a western view goes. Mainly the "reform jews" which might as well be Hebrew Therevada Buddhists on the afterlife.

According to current understanding, Reform Jews generally do not hold a literal belief in an afterlife, often interpreting the concept of "Olam Ha-Ba" (the world to come) as a metaphor for the legacy one leaves behind through their actions in this life, rather than a physical place after death;

Change Olam Ha-Ba to Samsara and there you go. Therevada Buddhist holding a similar afterlife conception as Jews. And I'm in that school of thought. Your afterlife is determined by your life's work/karma. Your accumulated impact either contributes towards a heaven, takes the world a step closer to hell, or cancels out.

Just a different interpretation.

But it doesn't mean life isn't still a type of gift. Especially to be a first world human and not somewhere with a 15% child mortality rate, or an animal with a 90% mortality rate.

On that, here's a fun song to torture angry people that want to be depressing and fatalist about life in debate. If you roll your eyes at unhappy permanent contrarians that say, "Life doesn't matter and heaven/hell is a lie to control you!" Just start singing the chorus to this and it will diffuse their depressing contribution.
