I am an Atheist and part of me wants to believe there is something after death, but likely you are worm food. But I hope there is reincarnation. I would like to come back as a cat...
"God"/religion is a mental crutch the weak use to get through life. If that does not work, they become alcoholics or drug users if they cannot hack what life throws at them.
ME? I turned to anti-depressants and alcohol. I am not weak, I just need something to take the edge off reality.
