Since the beginning of time, humans have asked the question: “What happens to us after we die?”.
Religious or spiritual people often believe in a heaven or afterlife. Some believe that nothing happens to us; we just die. Others, however, believe that our souls live on after we die. A couple of researchers say that they have the science to that this might be a possibility. (1)
The Soul Doesn’t Die When Our Bodies Do
After extensive research, two experts are saying that while our bodies die, our consciousness – or our soul – lives on forever. Quantum mechanics, they say, makes this possible. Quantum mechanics is the science dealing with the behavior of matter at the atomic and subatomic levels. It accounts for the properties of molecules and atoms, and the things that make them.

Electrons
Protons
Quarks
Gluons
Other esoteric particles
Scientists Stuart Hameroff and Sir Roger Penrose say consciousness is simply information stored at this quantum level. (1)
Orchestrated Objective Reduction
The pair say that this storage process is Orchestrated Objective Reduction (Orch-OR). This is via a structural component of human cells, protein-based microtubules, that carry quantum information. (1, 3)
“Let’s say the heart stops beating, the blood stops flowing; the micro-tubules lose their quantum state,” explains Dr. Hameroff. “The quantum information within the micro-tubules is not destroyed, it can’t be destroyed, and it just distributes and dissipates to the universe at large.” (1)
He says that if the person is resuscitated, then the information just goes back into the microtubules, and the person becomes conscious again. This is what we call a “near-death experience.” If, instead, the patient dies, then their consciousness can possibly exist outside of the body as a soul. (1)
Our Physical Universe Is Just Our Perception
Researchers from the Max Planck Institute for Physics in Munich say that there is an infinite beyond after death. According to them, the world we live in is just our perception and that our souls go into this infinite beyond when our bodies die. (1)
“What we consider the here and now, this world, it is actually just the material level that is comprehensible,” says Dr Hans-Peter Durr from the institute. “The beyond is an infinite reality that is much bigger.” (1)
Hameroff and Penrose’s research shows that consciousness comes from deeper level microtubule vibrations. This not only helps us to better understand what the human consciousness is, but may also help treat mental, neurological, and cognitive conditions. (3)
What do you think? Do you think our souls live on after we die?
Baby with White Hair Mocked – See His Stunning Transformation Years Later
In 2012, Patricia and Dale Williams welcomed a special addition to their family: baby Redd. Amid their immense joy, they quickly noticed something unique about him—his snow-white hair, a striking feature that set him apart from other infants. When Redd was about two months old, his parents observed his eyes constantly moving from side to side, which sparked concern.
Worried, they searched online for information and suspected that Redd might have albinism. Determined to find answers, they scheduled appointments with optometrists and genetic specialists. Their suspicions were confirmed when Redd was diagnosed with Oculocutaneous Albinism Type 1 (OCA1), a rare condition affecting only 1 in 17,000 people worldwide.
Initially, the hospital staff marveled at Redd’s unique appearance, expecting his hair color to change as he grew older. However, after the diagnosis, Patricia realized that Redd’s distinctive white hair and blue eyes, which occasionally shimmered red in certain lights, would be a permanent part of his identity.
In 2018, the Williams family welcomed another son, Rockwell, who also shared Redd’s condition.
Despite their parents’ efforts to instill confidence, both Redd and Rockwell faced adversity at school, enduring teasing and bullying due to their appearance. Their older brother, Gage, who does not have albinism, became their protective shield, but the challenges persisted.
The family faced a distressing incident when a photo of Rockwell shared on social media turned into a meme and spread rapidly across the internet despite their pleas for its removal.
Refusing to let negativity overwhelm them, Patricia and Dale chose a different path—they became advocates, driven by a mission to raise awareness about albinism. Patricia’s social media platform grew significantly after Rockwell’s photo went viral, prompting numerous inquiries that revealed the widespread lack of understanding about albinism in society.
Redd underwent corrective eye surgery for his strabismus, transitioning from a specialized school for visually impaired children to a public institution. This decision significantly improved Redd’s life; the family opted for surgery over eye patches to minimize attention and reduce bullying.
On April 28, 2023, Patricia shared a heartwarming video of Rockwell participating in his school’s “Western Day.” This time, the response on social media was overwhelmingly positive, contrasting starkly with the past instances of name-calling and ridicule.
Today, both Redd and Rockwell are thriving in their own unique ways.
Consider sharing this story to spread awareness and support for individuals with albinism among your family and friends.
