Wait... what? Now I'm confused.
The original claim is that IF one believes in heaven/hell, as in one's soul/consciousness going to one of these places in the afterlife, then we would still possess some level of awareness that might see our surroundings as "boring" after a while.
My claim (which Charlatan put more succinctly), is that if one's soul/consciousness dies along with the physical body, and does not go anywhere (heaven, hell, or otherwise), then that would be the "nothingness" that was spoken of. Nothingness = no consciousness, no more soul, nothing. Just a dead body. Does that make more sense?
