Immortality certainly does exist and all Christian believers are fervently awaiting the change; as the Bible promises in 1 Corinthians 15:53

For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.

And

1 Corinthians 15:54

So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.

After we die, our SOUL goes to Heaven, Hell, Limbo or Purgatory. Not our bodies. The true nature of the "resurrection body" isn't fully described (nor, one suspects, could the human mind comprehend if it were), but its existence is spoken of in 1 Corinthians 15:35-54. The resurrected dead will not be disembodied souls; they will receive new, incorruptible bodies like Christ's following His resurrection. Here are some excerpts from the passage noted above: 1 Cor. 15:42-44 - So also is the resurrection of the dead. The body is sown in corruption, it is raised in incorruption. It is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory. It is sown in weakness, it is raised in power. It is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body. V. 49 - And as we have borne the image of the man of dust, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly Man. This transformation from "natural" to "spiritual" will also occur to those who are alive at the Second Coming of Christ: V. 51-54 - Behold, I tell you a mystery: We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed-- in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.So when this corruptible has put on incorruption, and this mortal has put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written: "Death is swallowed up in victory."

According to the New Catholic Encylopedia (1967) there is no reference to the assumption in the Bible. Rather the Bible states at 1 Corinthians 15:50, "However, this I say, brothers, that flesh and blood cannot inherit God's kingdom, neither does corruption inherit incorruption"

The Assumption of Mary began to take shape in the 4th century as some wanted to elevate her beyond what was actually portrayed in the scriptures. Many of the stories were contradictory and without authority. As to becoming actual dogma of the Catholic church, this did not occur until just 1950.
