I was asked to insert my perspective on reality because this is a question for theists. It's not a question for scientists, or a question for strict materialist or substance monists. I answered the question. I showed the logical reasonable assumptions behind that based on my beliefs (read my bias... sorry TSQ had to). You consider them unreasonable I showed where they are plausible. It's not up to your standards of evidence I get it. With irrational expectations I'll even still answer your questions, as that is still my reason for being on this forum.

-How do they experience this afterlife without the machinery that allows us to "experience" anything? IDK, perhaps that machinery is also immaterial
-If this machinery isn't required to "experience" anything, then why do we seem to require it to begin with? by "experiencing anything" do you mean "experiencing anything tangible"?

"There ought to be a term that would designate those who actually follow the teachings of Jesus, since the word 'Christian' has been largely divorced from those teachings, and so polluted by fundamentalists that it has come to connote their polar opposite: intolerance, vindictive hatred, and bigotry." -- Philip Stater, Huffington Post
