question in lower case


where do you go when you die... somewhere, nowhere or is the question itself irrelevant or impertinent or both?

Bob,
See Gertrude Stein's comment on her Oakland birthplace for the answer:
"There is no there there."

I will go with FF .. wait and see. It is of no relevance to any faith.

Some say they go to heaven, Some say in the earth. Some say to Hell. Others say to Abraham's Bosom. Speculation is pointless because the Bible is not clear on what will happen.

I say .. while we have life we need to do what is right and Christ will take care of his own when we die. We don't know all the details but it wont be long until we find out.

Someone once said "sheep go to heaven, goats go to Hell".

The Dead Are Unconscious
The condition of the dead is made clear at Ecclesiastes 9:5, 10, where we read: “The dead know nothing . . . There is no pursuit, no plan, no knowledge or intelligence, within the grave.” (Moffatt) Death, therefore, is a state of nonexistence. The psalmist wrote that when a person dies, “he goes back to his ground; in that day his thoughts do perish.” (Psalm 146:4) The dead are unconscious, inactive.
When pronouncing sentence upon Adam, God stated: “Dust you are and to dust you will return.” (Genesis 3:19) Before God formed him from the dust of the ground and gave him life, Adam did not exist. When he died, he returned to that state. His punishment was death—not a transfer to another realm. What, then, happened to his soul? Since in the Bible the word “soul” often simply refers to a person, when we say that Adam died, we are saying that the soul named Adam died. This might sound unusual to a person who believes in the immortality of the soul. However, the Bible states: “The soul that is sinning—it itself will die.” (Ezekiel 18:4) Leviticus 21:1 speaks of “a deceased soul” (a “corpse,” The Jerusalem Bible). And Nazirites were told not to come near “any dead soul” (“a dead body,” Lamsa).—Numbers 6:6.
