I cannot help you with the afterlife but there is a little test that I have devised to prove that we humans have a free will.
Strange though that many do not want to try it. I have found that in religious as well as non religious circles. many seem afraid to either give clear moral answers to simple questions as well as a reluctance to prove to themselves that they have a free will.
If you are interested in my little simple test, let me know by P M and I will meet you there. Perhaps if I convince you, we can collaborate on an O P and you might see how few actually go for it.

I feel like I have free will, so I must, but my scientific mind tells me otherwise. Just our awareness alone has many unanswered issues. The "Why am I me' thread does not seem to be really going anywhere.
Not surprising. Who would you want to be?
Just pulling your leg friend. I have not read your O P.
On free will though, seem you think that free will means being able to exceed the bounds of nature and physics.
Am I reading you right?
Unanswered issues does not mean that you do not have the free will to pursue those issues and answer them.

I knew it was the Borg!
A good analogy actually.
Hey, I did not create what I found. I just found it.
No killing the messenger. I am not pushing anything.
