You have absolutely no evidence to show that we don't exist in some form after this life. You should be just as open to the possibility of an afterlife as not. I think an atheist would view the afterlife as an unknown rather than a foregone conclusion that we simply don't exist after death.
An afterlife requires dualism. There is not only no evidence for dualism, the scientific evidence is completely against it.
Therefore, belief in an afterlife is not rational.
Skepticism is not a position; it is an approach to claims.
Science is not a subject, but a method.
