How I deal with no afterlife
RE: How I deal with no afterlife
When it comes to death in the family, especially if it's a younger member (meaning not in "usual" dying age period of his/her life) it is not uncommon to see members of that family turn to religion, but that is actually the worst thing you can do. Because turning to mysticism, at that time of weakened morality, empowers those religious organizations that then stand against science and stuff like stem cell research that could have helped that departed person be alive today.

Just imagine if all those people before you that also lost loved one to, let's say, cancer didn't turn to mysticism but remained rational, your member of the family could have been alive today. And I'm not talking about collecting money, but just staying with rationality and science. Turning your back to religion, to drinking some sacred water from places of so called Marian visitation and actually backing scientific research instead of seeking some pathetic illusion that you will meet that person when you yourself die.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
