Nice poll results indeed, but why is it people always seem to put the option refering to someone smoking drugs, why not "inhale", "ingest" or "fall under the infulence of"?
EDIT: On a second note concerning death in the after-life, in Larry Niven and Jerry Pournelle's "Inferno" (based off the first part of "Dante's Divine Comedy") People in Hell simply can't die no matter what happens to them, they will just heal after a while. Just an interesting note that I think I should add.

You can find these sort of questions only on the internet...
DakaSha:if you go into a kindergarden and give all the kids rubber schlongs they will prob just hit each other over the head with them
DakaSha:and you have a class of little kids hitting eachother with rubber dongs which must be quite funny (also Picklweasel knight I am)

crap read the question wrong, its a tie between
you die and go to another (next) afterworld.
you die and go back to THIS (our) world to be reborn.
Though I like to think you get to choose the world you are born into (I would choose somethnig like the World of Warcraft or the World of FFXI....)

IMHO I like the theory from the NecroScope books:
When you die, you carry on being in death what you were in life. Albeit without a body.
A mathematician goes on doing maths, a scientist continues pondering the universe, a games designer goes on designing the best game he's ever thought of etc.... But they can never do anything about it.
Wouldn't that be most peoples idea of heaven? To continue doing in what you most loved after you die?
But I can't say I believe it. Personally I think when you die, you're worm food, and that's it. Not very optimistic, I know, but I'm a realist.
Anyway, I never intend to die... someone better invent an imortality machine within the next few decades though, because I'll be damned if I want to live forever with the body of a 65 year old!

I guess my grandmother explainex to me the best what happens when you die...
You become worm food(yes), and then the worms die making the land furtile, in which food grows, and feeds the future generations...
Too bad today we're buried inside concrete graves...
