Science even shows some religious ideas that people love to be true.... just not in a warm and fuzzy way.

Alle Menschen werden Brüder!

But we are literally all "brothers"...we are, science shows in the most concrete of ways, related to one another, and every other living thing on the planet.

You do go on after you die.... just not as the individual you are now, but the atoms of your molecules literally go on. You even come back as other things...... lots of other things at once. So these things do happen, just without the human continuity that makes them warm and fuzzy.
