Agreed...

I choose to have an opinion on the subject, based on my experience of the world and science

We don't know, and can't know. World experience and science say nothing about the subject.

and my moral sensibilities of how the universe ought to work.

And this criteria would not be considered reliable for anything else. Anything on which the reliablility could be checked.

I often make guesses about everyday occurrences that are nothing more than my best guess given the information I have to work with. I could certainly be wrong, but I have to have a certain amount of faith that my opinion is true, or everything would be at a standstill. Whenever evidence comes along to refute it, I revise my opinion. Just because I have faith in the conclusions I have drawn does not mean I am unwilling to reconsider.

What you're describing is an educated guess. An educated guess is based on past experience. There is no past experience on which to base a belief about what happens when we die.
