Would you want it and what would you want it to be like?

I'm not so sure; it might get boring after the first few millions of years.

Now, if it is the stereotypical afterlife involving sitting around on clouds playing harps all day, then I don't want any part of it.

Yeah, that would get old quick. The boredom factor is definitely something I have considered as well. Of course if this afterlife is being provided courtesy of some benevolent deity I guess they could take care of that problem.

That will be taken care of. Everybody will be on crack and have a kind of Alzheimer's so that each day will be a new and exciting day. Why not? What do you think keeps God going for eternity?

I would not want it. Having an afterlife would be like being stuck at a party you were never allowed to leave.

I also just don't get it why some people are so worried about checking out for good. When you're dead you're not going to be all cross about not being alive, any more than you were cross about not being born yet. Plink, lights out, that's fine with me.
