I rot in the ground and become food for worms, maggots and bugs and such, I will experience nothingness eternal blackness and no memories or anything.

For those that believe in an afterlife, when a brain is damaged it results in cognitive disabilities. Cognition, the mental action allowing perception, awareness, learning etc. requires a brain. So is your eternal afterlife still plagued by your disabilities, or would your god revert your mind and/or body to its previous state before any disability? If you think the latter, what if you where born disabled? And if your brain is dead where does your cognition come from? So you can experience this afterlife.

For all we know, there could be a hell where you're forever locked, bound and gagged in a cell surrounded by rooms where healthy young people are having wondrous sex non-stop, day and night, for eternity, never letting you sleep with their cries of pure ecstasy.
