The thought of that is so mind blowing and painful that it's no wonder people make up religions to cope with death and other such issues.
Delude yourself if you'd like. I guess it doesn't hurt you. But it sure has hurt others (how many wars were started over religious disputes... in fact, Sept 11th happened simply because of one group's religious beliefs). I greatly dislike all forms of religion and pity those enslaved to ANY religion, including Christianity.

I guess you are saying you are an atheist. I believe in God and hate uniform religion so what does that make me.
Yes, I believe there is an after life and why live in this shitty world where there is so much hate. Why have children? My mom has been a bible lover for years and she would tell me that I was going to hell. For a while just to get her mad, I said hell seems like a much nicer place.
Well, she is facing death and rather than throwing out a scripture to make me go to church, we talk about if we will see to each other ever again. I make jokes that with her that we will in one place or another; since she sinned for pushing religion and me for not believing in uniform religion.
Hey, who knows but I rather have faith than to equate my life with a chair (a being-within-itself).
