thankyou

Thanks, and I do mean that, but do me one favor, please ditch the idea that "godless" means " lawless" or " we are just machines".

...the poem is NOT advocating suicide. All it is arguing is once you give up on the fear of punishment in a fictional afterlife you free yourself up to be less stressed out over an imperfect world.

Yep, it's an expression...word art...

I wish you guys would show that there's a 'there' there, before expecting us to run full tilt at it. Just one time.

I have never thought otherwise, and never felt otherwise, so I don't know what I would look for, that isn't already very apparent to me.
