One can have doubt about many "existences afterwards"...
- Are you destined to Valhalla?
- Or will you be a giraffe, next time around?
- Or will you end up in a new person with no memories of your past life?
- Or will you end up in Elysium?
- Or Muslim heaven, with your 72 virgins?
- Or do you need to cross the river Styx and pay the boatman with a coin that should be placed in your mouth prior to burial?
- Or are you bound to the clouds, with wings on your back?
Are you sure it's not any of these?!
100% sure?
Are you prepared for the possibility that you got the wrong one?
