Most religions think that there is some type of a life after our death. I am not so sure?

Is there really life after the death of our physical body, or not? Does my recently deceased Dad live on, and if so where? How could heaven ever work if it really does exist? Would the bodies there eat, breathe, have contact with each other, what would we do in heaven anyway? Perhaps the feeling that there must be life after death is only one that is based around the fear of death. We fear that death is really the end, and so by inventing something as happening for ourselves after our physical death, seemingly this takes away some of the pain then of our inevitably coming death. Is there any form of existence after our death then, or not? Well, the thoughts we thought whilst alive, live on, because a thought once thought can not ever be lost, I suspect. It is a part of the Universe now forever. Our experiences have all been real. In the wholeness of existence, we have been a part of it all. Can a part, once a part, ever be totally destroyed then, or does it exist something like time exists, and how like light exists. Somewhere out there the light of a million years ago can still be seen, and yet light and time mean nothing to soul, which exists outside of both of these constraints, ever endingly. This light and time, together with life's various experiences with these, are matches of soul to its outerness. In this way, all is set up like this so our soul's innerness can become ever more refined, so to speak, in its wiser application, and understanding of truth. There has to be something that exists inwardly to be driving what we see outwardly I think, (both on the larger Universal scale, and on the smaller scale which includes ourselves) and so there must be something, some part of ourselves, that survives death, and which death can never touch. Do you believe that some part of us might go on in some way after the death of our physical body then, or not?
