    Everyone has their doubts about religion from time to time. But for one to mock one's religion openly, is equivalent to putting down a mans wife in public. It's not right, nor is it progression any any form.

    Secondly, This is a question that goes out to all that are NOT Religious. Sure all normal people have their doubts religion, but how does someone that's not religious go about explaining themselves to a loved one on their death bed?
    Someone you care for deeply, your mother or father.
    Do you challenge them like you do me?
    Do you mock them for having religion?
    Or if they have no religion, do you comfort them by telling them that the afterlife is false?

    ...and if it's not that their going to hell for trusting in you?

    Or lets say that the girl of you dreams, your high school sweetheart, is taking her last breaths, she's given 24 hours to live. She is unsure of her thoughts about religion, but wants to get it right before she dies. She looks into your eyes for advise, answers, and comfort. You, (MANIA, QWICK) have the option to say or do whatever you please at this moment. No one is around. It's just you and her. What does you conscience tell you to do?

    (this is a very likely situation, if you haven't had someone extremely close to you pass yet, you definitely will.)

    Good question man.

    Just because I don’t believe in a religion doesn’t mean I’m heartless. I understand that people are afraid of death, if these scenarios should happen to me I would comfort who ever is dying to the best of my ability. If Im asked by the dying person “what do you think will happen to me?” I would first ask them what they believe and then base my answer off of their response.





    Honestly no one on Earth can correctly and indefinitely answer the question “what is gonna happen to me when I die?” Because none of us knows for sure. If there is a God I hope he understands what has happened in my life to make me not believe in him, and can find the compassion to forgive me. If it turns out that there realy isnt a God well then, “I told you so” is really all that’s left to say.
