I voted "other". The Dharma (Buddhism) is at heart The Middle Way. This not a position between two extremes but a "no position" that supercedes them both.
The Dharma wends its way between eternalism and anihilationism.
Eternalism..... life beyond death
Anihilationism......death is the end.
The Buddha rejected both alternatives for various reasons, one being that "belief" in either one or the other was not conducive to the living of the Holy Life.
This may all seem technical yet in many respects it is simply the recognition that virtue is its own reward.

@CorvusBlackthorne So I have no right to ask who is looking forward to heaven? You can vote on a few. I will add incarnation too, will that make you happy? Yeah Ill add that too. You can also write what you think of death in the comments. I really want to know what people think of death here, honestly. No judgment!
