We don't believe in an afterlife, so we, well I do anyway, feel it's necessary to live life to it's fullest, go skydiving, travel around the world, etc etc, before i die because i know i will never get another chance
Indeed..I agree with Dawkins that being an atheist can be life affirming...to not live for - and/or not worry for, - the next life but live this one to the fullest.
