On a serious note. Its all a matter of personal beliefs. While I find all the religious theories beautiful and interesting, I myself believe the only way to know for sure about afterlife is to indeed die. So, while on earth our purpose is to just treat each other well, as well as the Earth....Now whether or not we actually fulfill this idea is obviously debatable, but I think the overall goal is to be happy and content while we are here. | Striving for happiness and contentment is guartanteed to bring the opposite.
