Whom are joined eventually by the current Earth Inhabitants. Thus, death is only a promotion to a more honorable condition. so B) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

To understand why b) is the correct option. We have to analyze all the options.

a) predestination is a concept proposed by Cristian protestants. The concept says that all existing events have been written by god and that he knows everything that will happen since the beginning of time and that everything that happens only has meaning inside his view and plans. So it's wrong.

c)Theravadin is wrong because what it says about death is that it is certain but the time of death is uncertain and that we don't know the circumstances but that it will eventually happen. Theravada is the oldest most accepted Buddhist school and the belief in a level kind of heaven only accessible for people who have lived the certain time they are required to live to inhabit those heavens, also they have different spiritual levels, 33 to be specific.

d) is wrong because Confucianism does propose this belief.
