You see that's a very Christian way of looking at it. But if instead they no longer exist they are no longer a consideration so what you would have to do then is take your life. But with God through his son Jesus Christ life would still be worth living as through that your family would still be an important part of your life. A family of God, it has Jesus, the Holy Spirit and a bunch of angels in it.
I'm afraid you are taking my comment out-of-context. Not shocking Mr. Theist as that's what theists do best. In life, my family would want me to move on after any possible tragedy. I did not mean they are observing me in the afterlife. It's a matter of honoring their memory. No deity needed.

Don't put words into my mouth or thoughts into my brain kind sir. No faith is strong enough to overtake my love of snowboarding. No deity needed.

So death is a part of the cycle of life and that cycle was initaed by an eternal changless living God whose handiwork you can see and appreacite in the heavens and on Earth.
No sir, I'm afraid you don't understand your own bible as well as I do. Wait, you're Christian right? Your bible says we were created by God. However, I'm not sure if we were created by dirt the first time. I say "first time" because Genesis 1 talks about man being created after vegetation then Genesis 2 talks about man being created from dirt before vegetation. Oh there was something about an omnipotent being resting on the 7th day which. Nowhere in this clusterfuck does it mention man being created from dead stars. No deity needed.

I don't need a telescope. In fact, I have yet to own one. Most of my love of astronomy comes from lectures. I don't need to see the heavens (not your heaven) to experience the presence of the Universe coursing through my veins. Besides, I have had the pleasure of sight all my life. The imagery of the Universe is forever etched into my brain. No deity needed.
