(In Atheism because the existence of a enduring soul doesn't automatically prove a god or gods exist.)

The Christians I've known were very consistent in being afraid of death, because, I suspect, they didn't know if they were in the correct camp regarding whatever god was "on the other side of death". This has since made me wonder how they would act if they knew they'd "make it safely out of this world". More reckless? More smug? More placid?

Additionally and not necessarily part of the above, what if we create our "next life"? Would we create a Heaven or Hell? Or both?

No.

Other than asking; "How do we put spare ones in 'Bottl3s' and get useful 'Energy'/'Work' out of them?"

Not following you there. Probably me.

In that case I would want to be god in my afterlife.    I am not going to try to get to that afterlife sooner just in case you are playing a trick on me.   Just because I am to be god doesn’t mean I should have complete faith in god.

Would you be god for everybody else or just yourself?
