I'm agnostic. It's like neutral, you aren't against god, but you don't have blind faith. I don't believe there is no god, I just don't believe that there definitely is one. I hate religion, however, but not the concept of a God.

I'm jumping back to the original question and posting my vision on life after death.
Well I see myself mostly as an atheist by I sometimes stop to think about what if there is something higher than us? Anyway, I see that after death there is MOST likely nothing. Now, alot of people see that as a bad thing but when you think of it, it's not all that bad because them you will no longer be thinking so you won't feel anything or think anything. You cannot be dissapointed due to no heaven nor can you be happy about nothing happening since you are no longer conscious. Think of it as the same thing as when you sleep through a night and wake up instantly in the morning (due to not remembering what you were dreaming of). It would be the same thing except forever.
Now also in my opinnion spending an eternity in a place (be it heaven or hell) is not all that great either. I mean, what guarantee is it that it will be totally sweet awesome in heaven for an eternity unless all your emotions and all that are destroyed and instead you are just forced to only think "yay". In my opinnion none also deserve to suffer forever. Now alot of people just use the word forever without actually realizing the meaning. It really does mean WITHOUT AN END! Meaning that it will go on and on and on and on and you are never closer to the end.
So in my opinnion, I do not want to be alive for an eternity nor do I even wish to exist for an eternity.
I once thought though that maybe when people die, their soul (if there is one, I doubt that) will travel to whatever place they wish creating their own PERSONAL paradise. Kinda think of it as being the god of your own world.
But in my opinnion all these religious arguements are nonsense. The atheists are as much right as the theists.

Hm, if I was in heaven and couldn't die or go anywhere other than heaven, I would probably just screw around, try to kill myself in the craziest way or have gunfights with my friends because we would all just come back after we died.

I have a slightly different view of Agnosticism. Agnosticism is: You can't prove that God exists, but you can't prove that God doesn't exist. Thus, no one can no for sure, so why bother trying to fathom it?

Because, possibly, there actually is a way to prove it.

It indeed is possible to prove God's existence to a certain extent, while proving his nonexistence is plain impossible. However, if someone has managed to do so, that person has not been very good at publicizing his findings.

Yes, but there's no way in hell we're going to find out what that is any time soon. Well, maybe we will, but I don't think so!

I think it is possible to prove that god exist or not, simple fact is that to prove god exist, you need him to do it (wont happen as far I believe. he isn't real.), and to prove he does not exist you need to uncover ALL knowledge in the universe (or maybe even multiverse, if it exist.) and once you know truly everything, you can tell there can be no god-as if there is a god, it should not be possible to amass all knowledge.

And from that logic we can safely say that there is a whole lot of better knowledge out there to pursue than whether or not God exists, no?

Probably.
I mean, why dwell on this question? it can only be solved by means out of our hands, or by learning all existence has to offer.
The reason I dwell on this question is because it helps passing the time.

Much talk about god's existence, little about life after death, lately anyways. My view on a life after death is reincarnation, I believe that when you die, you are reborn as another human, I do not believe in karma, and I think that a cat that dies is reborn as a cat, and the same for all other races too. I do not believe in neither god nor a higher call, I do believe that we we're created to live, and that our life serves no real purpose.
