eternity is a long time..... the most of it will be spent as some kind of star debris after the sun changes into a red giant and engulfs the earth taking whatever might count as my remains with it...

or something like that.

Location is meaningless when you're talking about eternity, because I will be, inevitably, in all places at once over an infinitely long period of time.

Well, the likelihood is that I will gradually decompose, eventually beoming part of the soil. I will then be stripped away by soil erosion, likely move around a lot before becoming part of some kind of sedimentary rock, after being metamorphosed, subducted, re-erupted and eroded (in no particular order) I will become trapped in an (as yet unknown) section of the earth. That is where I will likely spend eternity although there is a possibility I will become part of the sun at some point, perhaps even fully recycled into a new stellar body eventually.

Sorry, Geology does horrible horrible things to your brain.

Alternative answer, at the moment hell, as will everybody else because everyone is wrong by the terms of at least one religion which believes in hell.

Purgatory (Now where is that option)

Anyway I would like my spirit to spend eternity with the freedom to travel through space I would explore the universe and watch the goings on Earth over the next few thousand years.

Aren't you meant to leave Purgatory after you do your stint?

Anyhoo, perhaps I could be turned into an Auto-icon, like Jeremy Bentham (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/a/a6/Jbentham.600px.jpg).

Option C: My existence ends the second I die. I don't believe in fairy tales about heaven and hell.

If they DID exist I would prefer them to follow the description of Dante, in which case I would end up in the first circle of hell - the home of good heathens if my memory serves me right.

Christians don't think they are 'deserving of heaven,' contrariwise, they know they are undeserving but forgiven . What you think is vanity is really just assuredness.

"...For my Father's will is that everyone who looks to the Son and believes in him shall have eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day." (John 6:40)

I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God so that you may know that you have eternal life. (1 John 5:13)

We know also that the Son of God has come and has given us understanding, so that we may know him who is true. And we are in him who is true—even in his Son Jesus Christ. He is the true God and eternal life. (1 John 5:20)


Clearly then, Christians are meant to be able to 'know' that they have eternal life...

I don't think I'm bad enough to go to Hell, and I know I'm not good enough to go to Heaven. I'll probably wind up in Heck, a milder version of Hell.

I'll be in VALHALLA!

Let's see: lots of fighting, skulls for goblets, eventual opposition to demonic forces and the fires of Sutr. So, that's akin to Hell...

But: No pain, healed every night, feasting in the company of Wotan and Thor, the skull-goblet is that of the greatest enemy that I have slain, the nights are spent with beauties (possibly off-duty Valkyries), and a final confrontation on the side of good at Ragnarok. That's akin to Heaven.

So, Heaven.

Apparently, but I think my stint is going to be a long long time and then Purgatory is a bit like a government department it will take (literally) forever for them to do anything about you getting out, not to mention the large backlog of people waiting in there at the moment.

Kick back, lie in the sun, with my toes dipping in the water, watch people work, have pretty people bring me...good stuff..., and have people far greater than me tell me how good all the work was I did whilst I was alive and heap praise on me.

Fuck yeah...

My physical body will obviously fade into nothingness

My spiritual body will also fade into nothingness. This is because death itself leads to nothingness. Even if we assume a life after death scenario, eternity decades all things, including the mind. Regardless rather I am in heaven or hell, the lack of new stimulus after about a couple hundred thousand years can only result in madness and withdrawal. From there the mind will continue to decay to coop with eternity until there is nothing left.

I can't picture myself remaining sane after a few hundred thousand years in any popular life after death models, can you?

As far as reincarnation goes, my current "self" will also be destroy and be reborn as someone else. So "I" as defined by my emotions, rationality, will, and knowledge will also fade into nothingness the moment I die.

There are simply nothing to look forward to in death.

So, obviously, NnT will be spending eternity in Ifreann's pants, since I doubt she'd like to spend eternity alone, and nobody else on NS has pants (n=2, p<50)

Sorry, but the only description we have on Heaven is that it's an eternity of constant worship, perfect servitude to a benign and vengeful celestial dictator.

Sorry but that sounds like Hell to me, I have no wish to drink the kool-aid and join the cesspool of ignorance and fanaticism that religion is.

I would like to spend eternity dead... Living for billions of years doesn't really sound that fun for me. After maybe a thousand years you have already done everything, and living longer then that seems like a waste. When you have done everything, all that is left is to just sit there and wait... for nothing.

But if I have to choose between heaven and hell, as the bible describes them, I would prefer heaven... being tortured in hell doesn't really sound that nice...

Same place as you and everyone else, in a hole in ground with a stone marker and some stupid meanless saying that your family puts on there thats meant to confort them while you get eaten by worms, and decay while your body turns to dust and the fancy clothes you were buried in slowly decay.
