One of the most well known unanswered questions in the world would be what lies after death. Now many people have been whether is there life after death or not because they are curious as to where they would go. Of course as humans have came up with a lot of theories that would try to answer these questions that have been bugging them at their doorstep for a very long time already.
Now the most common of the beliefs would be of course Heaven and Hell wherein if one is good while he is alive, he will go to Heaven and if he was bad, he will go to Hell. Now in almost all religions, there is a Heaven and a Hell with a God ruling the Heavens and an evil being ruling Hell. Of course this is the main belief in the religion Christianity.
Of course there is also the very famous belief that if one would die, he would become a ghost. Of course one is probably familiar with all the ghost stories of people that have died and have come back to visit the living. This theory would state that ghosts are apparitions that have not gone to the afterlife.
Now the next theory on the list would of course be the reincarnation theory that uses karma as a basis to what one will be in the future. Now basically, those who have done good in their life will be reincarnated in a good life. Those who would do a lot of bad things will have the opposite effect though and will lead a bad second lifetime.
Science also has its own theories about whether an actual afterlife exists or not. One of the more mind blowing theories would be the infinite universe wherein one never really dies. When one quote and unquote, dies, his atoms will just be scattered to different objects in the earth and his atoms that contain information from his previous life will be transferred to the next object that his atoms are scattered to.
Of course the theory of parallel universes is a very famous one. Now this theory would state that a human is made out of energy and when he dies, his energy will move up to another parallel universe. It is actually very similar to the reincarnation theory but it adds scientific calculations to it.
Another theory that has a different twist to it would be the biocentrism theory that would state that there is no world unless the consciousness would put meaning in it. Basically, this theory supports the claims that there is no concept of time in human consciousness. So if one would mix this with the multiverse theory, he can say that the consciousness of a human can travel to another dimension and never die.
Now those are only some of the theories of the afterlife. Even though so many theories exist in the world, no one will really know which one is real. One will only know once he dies and sees for himself.
