According to the definitions I could find, an atheist is a person who disbelieves or lacks belief in the existence of God (or gods).
I would like to know if Atheists believe in the afterlife.
What about agnostics?

One of the biggest reasons there is so much argument and confusion between theists and atheists is that both insist on defining these states according to what one believes or does not believe. And it's a problem because beliefs often contradict, and migrate, according to whim and circumstance even within a single individual. Also, beliefs are very rarely total, and so no one would be totally a theist or totally an atheist according to belief.According to the definitions I could find, an atheist is a person who disbelieves or lacks belief in the existence of God (or gods).

I'm an atheist and I do not believe in an afterlife. As others have said, when I die that's it. It's over, I'm gone. It'll be just like 1800, I won't be here.According to the definitions I could find, an atheist is a person who disbelieves or lacks belief in the existence of God (or gods).

What about agnostics?
At conception the cells that are implanted will grow and a `spirit` of life matures.
That `spirit` will become one that is a being of cognizance and awareness.
Knowledge is gained throughout one's life and become the basis of one's gnosis.
When one dies, that `spirit` travels forward through gaseous means to the Cosmos.
Cognition and consciousness die with the death of one, awareness fails also.
Afterlife ? `spirit` ? Ask the Cosmos, or trust your beliefs, and good luck with that !
Very shortly now I'll decease and my `spirit` will find out, and I'll join you there.
As an atheist,
Yes. I believe spirits of our family are still present here helping us out; I believe that the presence of spirits/energy of a said loved one is alive in the presence of those who knew him or her.
I'm learning more about attachment and how we can't die until we have no attachment as to die in peace in liberation. It's a tough thing to think about since I rather just. die. Though I understand why one can be attached so much they just can't die.
Both of these aren't afterlife, though. The former is present in the environment and person of that loved one. The latter there is no limbo phase. It's like gook on a string. There is no string but because of the gook, we think there is. When we clean the gook from the string (gook meaning attachments), we find there is no string; emptiness. When we realize that we have no more continued existence.
I don't believe in deities; so, the word heaven is foreign to me. I looked it up on the search criteria for some definition. Couldn't find a concrete definition. I wonder if Muslims believe on the afterlife.

BUT hopefully people will still remember me, talk fondly of me, my children and grandchildren will have pictures of me, etc.
Speaking only for myself, who self-describes as agnostic deist:I would like to know if Atheists believe in the afterlife.
What about agnostics?
I’m asking because I started reading this book, and I was curious.
By the way, did someone read it?

On the other hand some atheists, for example Zen Buddhists believe in an after life of reincarnation, but do not believe in God(s).
I thought that was well established. It is routine for Muslims to present us their version of Pascal's Wager, after all. It seems to be based on 23:99-100 from the Qur'an.Couldn't find a concrete definition. I wonder if Muslims believe on the afterlife.
