Naturalism as defined by philosopher Paul Draper, naturalism is "the hypothesis that the natural world is a closed system" in the sense that "nothing that is not a part of the natural world affects it (Draper, 2007, p. 6). In order to explain the naturalistic Worldview we must answer some simple questions such as: What is the Nature of Ultimate Reality?; What is the nature of material reality?; What is a human being?; What happens to a person at death?; Why is it possible to know anything at all?; How do we know what is right and wrong?; and What is the human purpose? " Simply put, the Naturalistic Worldview is the denial of the existence of supernatural causes. In rejecting the reality of supernatural events, forces, or entities,

Many of us have some view or idea of the afterlife – whether it is some kind of utopia or even if there is one at all. Research conducted by Douglas Davies found that around 29% of us believe that nothing happens after death, 8% think that our bodies awaits resurrection and 12% believe that we will come back as someone else. Of course there are some more religious people, 22%, who just think that we should trust in God, the remaining 34% of us believe that our souls passes on to another world. These views can all be classed into the traditional divide used when discussing the soul and life after death.

I believe that there should be a supernatural power, and I do not think that life is all physical persuasive. Although the growth of technology and science help human to investigated the natural causes and find the reason for them, merely still there are so many unsolved problems that scientists have not found answer for

The concept of life after death has been around practically as long as life itself. Our beliefs about life after death can have a profound effect on our attitudes toward life. Most individual's beliefs about life after death are directly related to their cultural or religious affiliations.

“In truth, the ‘dead being’ can see nothing but ‘dead things’ and must therefore worship ‘death’ instead of ‘life’.” Because of that stunning ‘Cosmic Ignorance’, believing that ‘The Universe’ is a ‘LIFELESS COLOSSUS’, terrestrial humans live in Disharmony with The Laws of Life, disregard own Eternal Identity, practice Egoistic instead of ‘Universal Love’, and glorify ‘Killing Principle’. As philosopher George Lucacs defined the prevailing mental condition in our civilization as “Spiritual Emptiness”. Therefore, one cannot be surprised with the false outcome regarding this Paramount Life Riddle. (Quote from ‘LIVETS BOG’ Vol IV, chapter

Death? Afterlife? These two words alone are two of the most controversial topics of discussion within every religious organization. The whereabouts of the human spirit after death is mentally and emotionally demanding. Why? Because people are often curious about the outcome or whereabouts of the human spirit or soul once it depart from the earthly body. In addition, it challenges one religious views and beliefs. Because those religious beliefs are associated with the strength of ones faith when it comes to the whereabouts of the human spirit. This is normal that many people seem to be curious about human spirit after death and if religious rumors regarding the human spirit are true or not. Just in case both terms are a mystery, I will

Undisputedly all of us are going to face our mortality and Dr. Kenneth Ring explains that “From a social perspective, we know that each one of us will one day face our moment of death. Therefore, it is imperative that we provide scientific answers to the question of what happens when we die.” (Ring 11) But the problem is we just don’t know the answers to these questions. Is the brain really dead or do we live on in the form of what we term a spirit?

The article Life after Death is based on one man’s thoughts about what will happen to him after death or more easily put will his mind/spirit live on after his physical body has died. There are plenty of different ideas people have come up with from reincarnation to resurrection all to put their minds at ease so death doesn’t seem too scary. Steven Stewart-Williams explains a couple of ideas for life after death and explains how these beliefs are false and cannot actually happen.
