This question is mostly for atheists since most theists seem to agree 'yes'. But many atheists seem to disagree on this one. The basic question is:
Would you rather go to Heaven or equivalent, or die and stay dead?
There are many atheists who say that they don't believe in the afterlife, but would like it and would be happy if there was an afterlife they could go to for being good people. Others say the afterlife would be torture, as living forever would eventually get boring. There are also other reasons for this stance.
So the question is, would you want an eternal afterlife? This is, allow me to note, is not a religious discussion. It has nothing to do with whether God or the afterlife is real or not. Also, answer under the assumption you'd go to Heaven or similar. No "afterlife would suck because I'm bad and I'd go to Hell", and no religion-specific answers like "No because the Christian God is evil/it's just worshipping him forever/whatever."
It's just a hypothetical question. Call it 'paradise' if it makes you feel better. :3
