Why are believers still afraid of death?

Um I think you are putting more on the word atheist than it deserves. That word just means we don't believe in a deity it doesn't automatically mean we think life is meaningless. The meaning of life is to survive and be happy. I know 100% without a doubt I am living a meaningful life working, helping others, loving my family, and now raising my child to be a good person.

Also if your signature makes my scrolling mess up "you're tacky and I hate you."
