Time to decide what's worse ->
#21
RE: Time to decide what's worse ->
So the only options on the table are:
  • Live in awe and/or fear of "the dread of something after death, the undiscovered country from whose bourn no traveller returns", not for its own sake but merely out of desire to claim the reward for doing so and avoid the punishment for doing otherwise

  • Live a life free of such obsequious paranoia, knowing that it gives you the integrity to face up to any après-vie dictator and say that at least you faced the Universe on its own terms
Working for the good of your fellow humans and the world in which you coexist will always be the better option over scrabbling for the favours of a figment of someone else's imagination 'just in case'.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'
