Can we choose nothingness? I just want to be able to rest when I'm done here. I don't want more lives to deal with. 

you can be an atheist; just don't be a condescending prick about it like some people i could name. :P

I used to be. I'm sure some here could remember those days, but that was a very long time ago. Like a decade ago. 

Now I'm a happy atheist and i don't feel any need to force anyone else to share that, beyond letting people know that it's an option.

I do like the idea of eternal rest.

valhalla always sounded like more fun than heaven. 

as long as i don't reincarnate, i'll be fine. 

one lifetime on this shitpile of a planet has been one too many. :|

See the thing is, you'd end up with the one that fits you best.

You've reminded me of the god-awful film Lost Lake (alternatively titled Peak Experience)

This is the only clip I could find of the alternate/extended ending

What happens in the film doesn't matter, but in the ending all the characters die and are taken to another dimension where they choose where they would like to live their next life, and yes, hell is one of the choices,

you have to see this shit to believe it.

on a branch of 1000 buddhas constantly teaching other buddhas new buddha ways on their journey to enlightenment, with complete ascension,

but not reigning as a buddha that wants power will have to be on another spiritual branch.  suspended in enlightenment to see the eternal wisdom of creation.

It has levels.

Top level: A seat at the dining table in the house.

Descending: The garden outside the house.  The village beyond the garden.  The forest beyond the village.

Of course, if you're totally fucked up and beyond redemption, you just end up in a big nothingness, friendless and alone.

Of course, as we've learned from Rod Serling's "Night Gallery" ("Hells Bells" - starring John "Gomez Addams" Astin, no less).  Hell has the same arrangement as Heaven, but there you get the worst place for you in particular.
