God, apparently, is a lemon to be squeezed, lol. You do you buddy, cash in on that. 
To me, it's no more or less easy regardless. It's not as if I get to choose whether or not to die in any case, or what happens to me after I die, if anything happens to me. I suppose a terrible person with latent theistic beliefs might find themselves dreading their death if god exists...and relieved if god doesn't...but? The sort of ludicrous rating of difficulty in death as regards the god proposition must have a necessarily limited subset of applicability, but for people who don;t believe, it;s a complete non issue that doesn't make death any more or less difficult.
You're simply projecting your own fears and doubts about what dreams may come onto others. You should know, by now, Drich....that you're not like other people. Your peculiarities are not theirs...lol...........

Quote:How much easier is death when there is no accountability to a God who likes his rules? Meaning how much easier will it be to die with the idea that there is no God?To you, it probably wouldn't be easier. Life and death in the absence of god, you've opined upon before, is a horrible proposition to you.

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
