Life After Death?

 

Interviewee 1 I believe that when when I die, that I will cease to exist and my consciousness will no longer, uh, exist in any form.

Interviewee 2 I believe that after that we can meet with God, meet with God, and we can see the God.

Interviewee 3 I sort of believe in Buddhism, which um, um, uh, which which is about, uh, reincarnation and karma.

Interviewee 4 I believe when I die, basically, my body, my body's just manifestation of matter, and like, my soul is energy, so it's just going to transform into different forms, you know what I mean? I don't know what form it will be, but I don't think in the reincarnation sense, like I'll come back as another animal or living being, but I just know that my energy will transfer to where it needs to go.

Interviewee 5 As a Muslim, I believe after I die, my soul will be taken to my creator, where my creator tells me that I'll have to return to my body and wait till the day of judgement.

Interviewee 6 Uh, that you will face judgement, and depending on if you believe that Jesus is your saviour then you go with him to heaven, or you go to hell which is separation from God.

Interviewee 7 I believe that after death, I don't really know what's going to happen. I mean, I hope there's going to be something because I don't really like the idea of nothing happening after it, but I don't know what's going to happen. I don't really know what to believe in.

Interviewee 3 Nirvana is like, um, the stage of enlightenment once you've completed the cycle, so I guess you stop all suffering.

Interviewee 7 I don't have a word for it. I just like to believe that there's something out there, like a higher power, but whether it's God or just like some cosmic thing, like, I don't know. A force.

Interviewee 8 I think we're in hell on Earth now, and I think, um, after death, depending on how you live your life, you know, your principles and mor- your morals and principles, um, depends on whether or not you're going to go to heaven, but I think we're in hell now.

Interviewee 6 My beliefs come from the Bible, which is Christianity.

Interviewee 5 Um, most of my belief comes from the Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him. How the continuation of the three main great faith from Judaism to Christianity.

Interviewee 1 My beliefs come from the fact that I was brought up in an atheist household, and I've never had religion in my life at all.

Interviewee 8 Um, basically, this belief comes from just, just oh its just my general belief. I just think that this is hell now.

Interviewee 4 Well it's accumulation of looking into all religions and away from that, it's also my life's experience, you get me? I'd like to see myself as what they call the Five Percenters. The Nation of Gods and Earths.
