Essay:Afterlife
Dear atheists, This essay revolves around an honest question, how do you deal with death as atheists? I understand we don't think about it often... But you have to admit, it's really scary to believe that this life is all we have. Even if it were so, I do not see the benefit of believing it. If you are being hanged, and your friend promised they would come... What is the benefit of believing they will not come?
