Religion talks about the life hereafter, the bible actually doesn't. Ecclesiates 9:5 says that the dead are consious of nothing. It's false religion that uses it to scare people into coming to church, because when they come to church, they put money in the plate, and if enough people do it, the pastor can buy that new Mercedes he's had his eye on.
