It's 50/50 for me. I think with what we know about science it seems pretty clear that we end when we die. And with all that we DON'T know about science it seems just as possible that consciousness is eternal.

It took me a while to find, but stuff like this research from Yale, reviving organs and brain function long after the point of death, makes it apparent that what it means to die is just as complex a question as what makes us us.
