If an afterlife existed. I would have no idea how it could.
So to clutch at straws: Perhaps its possible that IF there was an afterlife this could be so because invisible and intangible consciousnesses have been present in the universe and have been evolving before the Origin of life. And these consciousnesses (perhaps I should say soul but this doesn't require a "God" or gods), possess bodies that evolve such as single celled organisms. And then these 'souls' get more complex and sophisticated and therefore intelligent (they start unintelligent and a tiny fragment of consciousness that is merely hanging on). Just like the bodies (which includes brains) get more complex. And then after the body and brain dies these consciousnesses that you think are you body live on and you can still live after death. With dreams etc.
This of course is absurd as far as I'm concerned because consciousness and thought is clearly effected by what happens to the brain.
Like I said I'm just clutching at straws and maybe I've given some of you at least some or one idea to work on since this whole thing is pretty difficult anyway. Maybe I just lack imagination on this subject at least?
I've heard that perhaps in the future you really could perhaps get your brain frozen and put in another body (maybe whether biological or cybernetic) and perhaps live on. But that would actually be more of a continuation of the current life than an after life wouldn't it?
Just some thoughts. Ideas. Hypothesizing. Clutching at straws.
I have no idea really:p
