Indeed. We'll be worm chow, plant fertilizer, maggot hotel, ect.. Simple fact and reality.If we're lucky, our bodies will decompose and nurture nature.
Which specific verse do you refer to?how do you apply that with the WHOLE council of God where he wants us to Judge certain things.
peel the onion Jane, dig deeper.
Afterlife or not, either way, if I die and my pain doesn't cease I am going to be one angry dude.
Some would say if you experience pain you are not officially dead……![]()

OKAY...turning and walking away from the thread...
Jane, I think the point Jesus was making here is to not judge hypocritically/don't judge someone for doing the same things you are doing...For in the way you judge, you will be judged; and by your standard of measure, it will be measured to you.
Yes, that's right. Glad you agree. Science says so too.right Gordy, because you said so.

Yep, science knows far more than religious BS. Religion just makes things up appealing to ignorant rubes. I'll stick with science. Science for the win!yep, yep, yep,
Science knows all about Eternal Life, creation, God et al.
good thing right Gordy?
what do they say, that they know 'for sure'.
we will wait.

Superficial judgment is wrong. Passing judgment on someone based solely on appearances is sinful (John 7:24). It is foolish to jump to conclusions before investigating the facts (Proverbs 18:13). Simon the Pharisee passed judgment on a woman based on her appearance and reputation, but he could not see that the woman had been forgiven; Simon thus drew Jesus’ rebuke for his unrighteous judgment (Luke 7:36–50).
Hypocritical judgment is wrong. Jesus’ command not to judge others in Matthew 7:1 is preceded by comparisons to hypocrites (Matthew 6:2, 5, 16) and followed by a warning against hypocrisy (Matthew 7:3–5). When we point out the sin of others while we ourselves commit the same sin, we condemn ourselves (Romans 2:1).
Harsh, unforgiving judgment is wrong. We are “always to be gentle toward everyone” (Titus 3:2). It is the merciful who will be shown mercy (Matthew 5:7), and, as Jesus warned, “In the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you” (Matthew 7:2).
Self-righteous judgment is wrong. We are called to humility, and “God opposes the proud” (James 4:6). In Jesus’ parable of the Pharisee and the tax collector, the Pharisee was confident in his own righteousness and from that proud position judged the publican; however, God sees the heart and refused to forgive the Pharisee’s sin (Luke 18:9–14).
Untrue judgment is wrong. The Bible clearly forbids bearing false witness (Proverbs 19:5). “Slander no one” (Titus 3:2).
Christians are often accused of “judging” or intolerance when they speak out against sin. But opposing sin is not wrong. Holding aloft the standard of righteousness naturally defines unrighteousness and draws the slings and arrows of those who choose sin over godliness. John the Baptist incurred the ire of Herodias when he spoke out against her adultery with Herod (Mark 6:18–19). She eventually silenced John, but she could not silence the truth (Isaiah 40:8).
Believers are warned against judging others unfairly or unrighteously, but Jesus commends “right judgment” (John 7:24, ESV). We are to be discerning (Colossians 1:9; 1 Thessalonians 5:21). We are to preach the whole counsel of God, including the Bible’s teaching on sin (Acts 20:27; 2 Timothy 4:2). We are to gently confront erring brothers or sisters in Christ (Galatians 6:1). We are to practice church discipline (Matthew 18:15–17). We are to speak the truth in love (Ephesians 4:15).

For those not cremated
The worms crawl in, the worms crawl out the worms play pinnacle on your snout.
With no more electrical impulses transferring between our neurons our conscious self dies and our existence as living thinking entities stops. All while our physical form is either burnt, decays or is eaten. Potentially a few bones may become fossils for a few of us. That may be discovered by life in a few millions years
you could learn the difference between yur temporal fleshly Body and yur Eternal soul
you could
my cartoons hammer on this one bunches, did you not see these. it can help you bunches...
View attachment 67543346...this one is a Classic, they all say the same thing...then the Rude awakening of course.
easy to play Denial, the devil plays that card. but he can't play when you head for Judgement.
better pick another card.
bye.
It is not with our mortal bodies that we enter eternity but with our spirit and soul.
the spirit given by God returns to him at the end of our Earthly Journey as stated in Ecclesiastes 12-7
