Science tells us that energy can not be created or destroyed it can only change forms. It seems logical to me to assume that since the most basic level of our being is made up of pure energy and science says energy can not be destroyed that we do indeed survive physical death.

I personally think that there is life after, but if there isn't, it really doesn't matter because in that case... we won't know that we ever existed at all.
As far as science ever having a conclusive answer, I seriously doubt it.

Alright people, when you die you're just dead ok, nothing else happens...
The reason why lots of people believe in stuff like afterlife or reincarnation is because they just can't accept the fact that life has to end once.

In short, the Brain is the center of the consciousness, and it is electrochemical processes which the brain functions upon, so yes, neurochemistry is the root of our thought process, I hardly see any other way of it.

Quantum physics and quantum entanglement provide a much different answer for consciousness than a chemical or electrochemical process.

To some people that would confirm life after death.
To me and to most scientists, that confirms that NDEs are simply a chemical reaction in the brain upon dying, an attempt to ease the fear of knowing you're going. Once the NDE stops, you're gone, and I'm not prepared to think that we end up going somewhere else.

Watch this and you'll understand that people are experiencing things even when their brain doesn't function:

This is what I believe:
When you're inside a car that doesn't mean that YOU'RE THE CAR, and the same rules applies to our body, I'm not a human; I'm a soul inside a human.

And as to science having an answer, well, last time I checked they hadn't got a completely consistent theory of Gravity.
