There isn't an afterward.

Check the definition of religion. It is a belief system as relating to
God or the supernatural.

Check the definition of Atheism. It is the absence of religion, hence
clearly not a religion.

All just belief systems, and call them what you will.

Never mind whether there is a God or not. It is how you live that determines

the outcome.

Outcome of what ?

2 minutes after the oxygen to our brains is cut off, everything we
are is lost forever.

You will find out whether or not there is a God later.

Well of course there is no "later". As a rational being, I know right
now that there is no God. Hey, no santa claus or the tooth fairy
either grin

In my view atheism clouds your judgment.

No it's the foundation of rational thinking.

You cannot see the supernatural

nature of the Big Bang

Nothing supernatural about the big bang. I for one don't believe there
was necessarily a big bang. For me, big bang was the first time
I got laid grin

or about the birth of the Solar System

Didn't depend on some diety.

or about the possibility of mankind traveling through the stars.

Never going to happen for all the reasons I posted previously.

Sun going red giant because you think you will not be there.

I won't and niether will you.

On the positive side atheists are right about evolution.

As long as you mentioned it, it's important to note that essentially
all religions opposed Darwin's of evolution. Many claimed that all
those fossils were put there by the devil, to mislead man. All that
crap about being created as is, in the image and likeness of God.
Sheesh !

Without atheists

murder would probably be legal, since theists errantly believe that death is a

good thing. In society atheists have the needed role of emphasizing the

natural and the practical, which theists are weak in.

Word salad gobly gook.


If your belief system will not allow you to help prepare all of us to migrate

to another star system before the Sun goes red giant then you are part of the

problem and so is your belief system. But you cannot help being an atheist.

That is the way God created you. God loves you anyway just like he also loves

the theists who also are not very bright.


Clearly you have a strong need to 'be loved'. Grow up.
