>Actually religions, or at least the ones I know about in some detail, don’t model that much. For example, Christianity doesn’t really model the afterlife beyond being Heaven being in the presence of the Lord. Gates, perfection, eternal peace and happiness, etc. but the catch-all for modeling reality or beyond reality in most religions tends to be that the supreme deity fixes or resolves any inconsistency or unknown. So, the afterlife is whatever your supreme deity decides and makes it, you just don’t know about it. It’s modeled (which is partly why it’s so successful) it’s just that you may not know the details explicitly, a sort of black box model you don’t get to peek inside of.
