If something exists after death, it seems to me that the most likely answer is that we may either wander for a bit and be put back somewhere else, or that we will immediately reincarnate.
If an afterlife in another world exists, it would only be achieved by the consistent purification of the self through multiple lives. There is too much beyond our control for one lifetime to be enough to be judged on.
Logically speaking, I would have to say that a form of reincarnation is the only plausivle answer. For souls to be created then judged is a horribly inefficient process, and I have felt too much outside of the normal physical range to exclude the possiblity of a non-material existance. This leaves me with the theory of a closed system in which we nothing is created or destroyed, it just is.
