How does POTUS know this? Is Cohen a plant too?
Anon, we are basically energy. Our bodies are powered by the sun which we consume in the form of food and drink. The Law of Conservation of Energy states: energy can neither be created nor destroyed. So, our inner energy is never destroyed.
When we die, it goes somewhere. Some think it's a place called heaven, hell, or purgatory. Some think it's another dimension. Some think we return back here. No one knows for sure until after death.
