What dreams may come?

How can our brain function though if it is "dead"?

Without the proper life support (i.e. - oxygen & proteins) no muscle in the body can function. Thusly, you can not think, you are dead.

Imagine what it is like to be blind, mute, deaf, paralyzed, and insensitive while having no ability to comprehend or respond to anything. It is exactly what you have all said, death is the state of nothingness

Whether or not you currently have religious beliefs may change this. Physically you are unable to do anything because heaven and hell are not physical places, they are spiritual. Spiritually you can interact in ways that you've never conceived because who knows what one's spirit is capable of doing when it's not weighed down by the boundaries of the body.

If you are religious you realize that if you abide by the laws of your pertaining written scripture than you will be able to enjoy all the benefits however great and wide they are of your own personal corrolating "heaven". However, if you do not abide by what is said you must then you will be experiencing the pain, stress, and suffering inconceivable by the human mind and body for the rest of time...

So, in essence, death is physically nothing, and spiritually more than everything we can physically conceive
