OK. Do you think you will be aware of this transition?

No.

*Why do I feel that I am walking into a trap?*

"[15]He made a pit, and digged it, and is fallen into the ditch which he made. [16]His mischief shall return upon his own head, and his violent dealing shall come down upon his own pate." - Ps 7:15-16

Oh. OK. You will be changed from a weak human with sinful impulses to a perfect creature but you don't think you'll be aware of this happening. OK

In any event, I think we have agreed that sometime after we die (unless we are "Raptured") we will be changed into something perfect, through the power of Christ's sacrifice. We will be transformed into a being worthy of standing in God's Presence.

Because, leaving aside the baggage of helping each other out and indulgences, etc, we have agreed that there is a Purification process that occurs after death. This is the state of existence we Catholics call Purgatory.
