Obviously what's "reasonable" will differ a bit from person to person based on his/her context and beliefs, but I think most of us can agree on some fairly basic observations.First, you can't take it with you. All your physical stuff stays here. Whenever someone dies, we notice that their stuff remains in the physical world. It doesn't suddenly vanish.Another thing we notice is that our physical bodies stay here. That includes our heart, lungs, brain, hemp tattoos, etc.Also, it's fair to say that because the physical stuff stays here, then any knowledge and skills you've developed which are rooted in the physical world will become obsolete when you die. Your knowledge of HTML probably won't be of much use in the afterlife, unless of course there are dead computers in the afterlife too, such as my old Atari 800. I hope you still know BASIC.If we manage to retain anything of ourselves after death, it seems reasonable to say that it won't include any of our physicalstuff or our physical bodies. And much of our knowledge will be obsolete as well.If we can take anything with us after death then, it would have tobe something non-physical in nature. And the non-physical part of ourselves is our consciousness. You can call it other names if you wish -- soul, spirit, etc. The exact term you use doesn't really matter. I'll use the term consciousness.
So we have a couple alternatives that seem reasonable to me:
1.After we die we retain some part of our consciousness, but all the physical parts of our existence are lost.
2.After we die we cease to exist. Our consciousness gets wiped out along with the physical. Dead and gone forever.
