I sometimes wonder if you people are just LARP'ing. You claim to know so much and have such strong stances on things, but such basic knowledge is unknown to you? The "afterlife" or the souls journey after death is very well described and is consistent across so many cultures it can't be coincidental. The most well-known interpretation is from ancient Egypt, but its exactly the same thing Spaniards found when conquering Mayas and various less known cultures, they all claim that the soul goes to Orion, then trough the milky way passing trough tests and answering for the life the soul has led on earth and depending on various factors it might come back to earth or move on to Shambala or Valhalla or Heaven etc. Thats a very short version of it, if you're truly interested the info is easy to find.

On a separate note, if you wish to simply not have to die, go to the halls of amenti, they were built for this very purpose and they are free for mankind.
