In reality, nothing. You cease to exist and your life force is just gone. Many people believe in some form of heaven but the only way you can live on is by being in people's memories.
Well usually you are buried, or cremated or mumified and put in a huge pyramid built by hand from slave labour....

And by having children, therefore spreading your genes into the genepool.
I suggest having several in case one don't want to carry on your genes to the next generation....
Humans of course, being slightly more stupid, complicate it all by believing various comforting thoughts (ie Afterlife) and such stuff.
I am SO cynical! ;-)
Do people consider an afterlife for the animals they kill to eat? No!
Surely we are no better than those animals. Sure, we supposedly have more intelligence, but we cause genocide to people who believe different things, to creatures whom we desire on our plates, and to the innocent creatures whom we'd rather kill for sport (And the list continues).
So why should humans have an afterlife when the other animals don't?
> So why should humans have an afterlife when the other animals don't?
Because we were created to rule over animals. God made us to rule over everything else in the Earth, which is also, obviously, why we're more intelligent than them (although some of us don't always show it.)
In my view, when we die we will either go to Heaven or to Hell, depending on the way you've led your life, and if you knew God or not.
The thing that gets me is the arrogance in which we seem to 'own' the world. Sure, we might be supposedly more 'intelligent', but do intellignent creatures destroy their own environment, to possess objects (ie Money)
I read in 'The Week' (crackin' mag of all the major news) that the US government has at last admitted global warming exists, but unfortuantely, it is too late to stop it, so, to prtect their darling economy, they are not bothering to slow it down, and are going to 'adapt' to it. Don't you just love humans? Take everything t othe extreme, kill opposite feelings, and then die becasue of their actions later? What in hell is the point?
