Obviously I don’t believe there is, but I’m fascinated by the confidence with which those who do affirm that belief.

Obviously I dont believe there is, Other than your current tagline, it isn't obvious at all.

I'm fascinated by the confidence of those who don't believe there is life after death, yet rush (often with religious-like fervor) to embrace or impose death as if they know, 100%, all about what death brings.
The entire euthanasia and assisted suicide lobby is built on the unwaivering leap of faith that the experience of being dead is overall and always positive or neutral, never negative, for the dead person.
But what's the evidence for that?
Is being dead really better?

While I don't believe in resurrection by magic wand, I find it hard to discount that one day we won't develop the technology to recreate consciousness. Multiple universes and convergent evolution also raise the possibility of a person experiencing eternal consciousness in some form. There are probably other possibilities I can't even imagine.
