i FUCKING hate people with this philosophy about religion. as ALL religious texts say, you are there to serve (insert name of your favorite diety) and shall do so in a way that is unselfish. may be worded differently in some ways, but its there. you saying that its better to be safe than sorry is basically saying you only believe in what you do because no matter what, you want a backup plan for the afterlife. its not depressing to think about what happens when you die, because you die. nothing happens except dying. if theres any sort of afterlife, i like to beleive its something more spiritual than going to heaven or hell. im in no hurry to find out, but its very interesting to me because its one of the only things that science cannot and will never be able to explain. but you saying that its better to have some sort of faith in order to be safe rather than sorry is very selfish and ignorant sounding. if youre gonna believe in something, more power to you. if you believe for the wrong reasons, you need to rethink your faith.
