The Problem of Evil combined with the problem of Free Will

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.

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...........
PREACH!! I completely agree. Thanks for making so much sense.
I was a born-again christian for many years then I got woke.. and now life is better in so many ways. It's taking me time to see my value and find my voice, but the reward is liberating knowing my path is not dictated or controlled by fear of death and the unknown.  Casting off the shackles of religion is pretty fucking awesome. The beautiful people I've met on this forum have more heart and compassion than any group of people I've been apart of. So back off Jesus and followers, because this bitch is done with Chu.  Shy
