Pippy, in answer to your post 9:
First;ly I'm 59 years old, dad died 15 years ago and mother 93 and senile, so they ain't got much to talk to me about, be it death or anything!
Of course death is inevitable. What offends atheists is when god is thanked for saving 1 out of 152 innocent people with lives to live that get cut short. If god is responsible for saving the 1, he is equally responsible for not saving the 151.
I don't believe either that the father of the 1 was being rude----just deluded.

A man is born to a virgin mother, lives, dies, comes alive again and then disappears into the clouds to become his Dad. How likely is that?
