I see no evidence for anything after death other than oblivion. In
fact most evidence seems to point to oblivion. The only reason others
believe in being after earthly existence appears to me to be simply
wishfull thinking due to fear of oblivion.
This is what I firmly believe.

Sure, after you live you are dead. But maybe after you are dead you live
again, by some currently unknown part of reality.
IOW, if reality is powerful enough to cause life itself, then it is surely
powerful enough to finally bring about an eventual return to life.
Philosophically speaking, that is.

What about spiritualism (which can include communicating with those
who have died)?
Also, please define oblivion.

Philosophically speaking there is plenty of evidence for non-
existence. Before you were born you did not exist. You'll be going
to the same place when you die. In otherwords you will not be. That
is what I believe.
