Without these five senses, there really is no way to be sure if you are or aren't alive...
But when you die, these things are taken away from you.
Any religious out there, please explain to me how an afterlife is even possible if we no longer have any of our senses to expierience this "afterlife" then?

Just to add a complicating factor, for the a major part of every day most people effectively lose their five senses. It happens during sleep. However, despite the lack of information from the senses, many people have vivid experiences in dreams that not only rival their "real' world experiences, but also exceed them in vividness and experiential range. Wet dreams and nightmares come to mind. In some cultures, the dream world is considered to be as real and valid as the sensual world. It's just another place of existence.
Could the afterlife simply be a world of perpetual dreams?
