For my mind, these are really good questions to be asking, ScaredOne .. and I am not ONLY saying this because they are the kind of questions which motivated me to begin investigating Buddhist thought and eventually practice.

What is important for me, and this is very consistent with the core teachings, my relationship with Mahayana understandings and reality, is that we can not know for sure what will happen after our human body ceases to exist ( and it will ), so relying and focusing on understandings about after this life will always be speculative and is not necessary for us to do.
