It doesn’t seem as if any particular belief or even belief in general is the thing providing comfort when we can get it. I am an anti-theist...and while I’m no more bothered than anyone else when people attribute their state of mind to religion(and when that reported state of mind is actually positive, lol)...I just don’t think that whatever unspecified comfort theism may provide some people could ever balance the scales of effect.
In terms of seeing loved ones sure, but you’re wrong otherwise. People the comfort of theism is not unspecified or insignificant against a lack thereof.
