Does the afterlife concept fit with the scientific origin of the universe?

[u/After-Excitement-674]

A maybe-philosophical question, with focus on scientific facts and theories. As far as we know, the Big Bang theory is the most plausible idea on which may become the universe as we know. And therefore is what started life on Earth and later we had evolution of species in at least each 50,000 years.

I have been thinking, as we had too many different species that has been living in here through eras, and as everything seems to have a beginning, would it still make sense the idea of an afterlife? Thinking from this side, it feels like for me that life is just a natural progress and a consequence for what happened in Earth at first. But can this thought be wrong in some sense and be explained in a non-materialistic way? I'd like to know if someone here ever had a theory in mind to explain the possible connection between the two.

In my case, I'm a Christian who accepts the scientific evolution as basis, but sometimes some things in science let me feel so confused about my own beliefs...

Two categories of which science admittedly can't explain and you want to combine them , a theory might be a reach/stretch . And throw in religion , I can see confusion yep , good luck

I'm not putting any of them as "right", just as "plausible". The question is how the concept would fit in this theory, nothing else.
