A few questions

RE: A few questions

3. If there is no afterlife, what motivation would/should anyone have for living any particular way, such as trying to live ethically, civilly, healthily, or any specific way?

It's these two isn't it?
This is REALLY what it all comes down to isn't it?
The truth is simply that too many people need some kind of reason for it all. There just has to be a "Why?" and of course an answer for that "Why." The world can't just be what it is can it? Your life has to have some kind of deep philosophical existential meaning, otherwise it's just not worth living.

Take that one factor out of the equation and what have you got? Fix this ONE glitch and what have you got?

Freedom. A planet full of people that aren't worried about the judgment of gods, enjoying their lives and letting others do the same.

Stop asking why and enjoy your life for what it is.
