All god religions are fascist regimes, as evidenced with the Vatican Bank helping Hitler and other fascist regimes during and after the war by helping the brass escape. Not to mention their participation in death camps. And they all seem to dislike Jews, even as Jesus was just that.
Perhaps that is why Christians do not walk their talk.

This shows that you do not know too much about modern Gnostic Christianity.
For one benefit, we call evil evil, while Christians call evil good.
If you do not see that as superior thinking, even as you show that quality, what can I say?

Who determines what "the best possible end" is?
Since everything created in nature dies or corrodes in the end, and everything and everyone we know and love will cease to exist, I'm finding it hard to understand your claim here.
It gets complicated and I am a poor communicator.
Gnostic Christian try to see the macro as well as the micro when looking for proofs of logical concepts, as well as illogical ones.
It is self evident that nature creates for the best possible end, because this, here and now, is the best possible end, because it is the only possible end, given our history, the anthropic principle and entropy.
That thinking is why Gnostic Christian Jesus taught that heaven was here and now but that most people could not see it. I can.
That does not negate that both of us would improve this world real quick if given the chance.
We are created for our best possible end, by nature, is proofed by your own life driven desire to reproduce entities that will also pass on this life giving trait.
Ceasing to exist is not possible scientifically, but I take it you meant our subconscious dies.
It may. And that puts you back to where you were originally, if there is such a place of origin for a conscious life force.
Fear not. It is a waste of time.
