(Philosophy at Uni will be fun)
No feelings, no consciousness.
you don't exist anymore. The brain that drives your life and the body that makes it real are no longer a person.
It's just one of those questions that can be thought about for bl**dy ages.
And those who DO believe in an afterlife or resurrection have little to fear about death, because there's no wait in between the point where you die and the point where you live again.
Like someone else said, it's a just a 'close eyes - open - what the hell just happened - Yay, I'm alive' type things. We've all had that happen.

Unfortunately for the billions who feel the same as you do, there are only a few million "slots" i.e. people that will be remembered. And less so as the years pass and the less significant are forgotten.
And your brain and heart die. They're not immortal.
But seeing as you can be re-born into another "realm", one of which bare striking resemblance to "heaven" and another that sounds remarkably like a "hell", then I think it can be interwined with Christian belief.
Infact, I'm thinking that Jesus taught the best way for his Jewish audience to learn from it, but Buddha's teaching sort of explains it better to relate with my life.
What do you make of that Forest?
To disprove einsteins theory (not mine), you'll have to come up with rather less vague explanations than that.
And, I might add, heat is a type of energy, and if by 'eaten' you mean digested by smaller creatures, then that energy is then used to help that creature live. So the energy is not destroyed, it is passed on. So you did not prove anything wrong.
I couldn't guess, but Einstein did say that
> energy cannot be destroyed, only changed into other forms of energy.
> It's one theory anyway.
When you cremated your body acts as a fuel and when you are buried your energy is Eaten or given away as heat from your decomposing body.
Sorry to prove you theory wrong.
Death isn't a big issue for me - all I can hope is to have achieved enough by the time it comes around so I'm not instantly forgotten.
