Just something I've been thinking about - it's really weird and I'm probably just mad.

I'm a Christian, and I believe that when I die I will be put into heaven or hell. But I believe that instead of being physical places, these are actually just states of mind. For example, heaven would be a state of mind where you could do anything.

I started relating these to dreams - such as heaven being a lucid dream, where you could control anything you wanted with ease - or hell, where you had little or no decisions with what happens...

Anyway, something even more crazy:

What would happen if after death, providing your body was not damaged, (or even if it was, for there are no brain waves after death), if you went into a dreamlike state. Well what would you see if you 'woke up' from this dream? Would you see anything?

I know that this post is based on a big what-if, and I don't care if nobody replies as I'm not very good at writing down my thoughts!
