Not a clue, because as far as I know it is impossible. It may not be a comforting thought, but no one ever said life is about being comforted. Life is what you make of it. And if not believing in a god makes you miserable, than that is just tough. It doesn't make a god any more true or false.
Then we are back to where we started no out and everything is pointless. But life cannot be what you make of it because death is unpredictable. We can very well die sitting here doing nothing and we can die else where without a clue what just happened. It's a scary thought, but I cannot get it out of my mind and the reason to live is no better than a reason to die. I don't know if you see where I am getting at but this is how I feel. So really why are we born?

What is the point if everyone's gonna die anyway? Huh? To try and help the living and dying of course rather than speculating about the already dead, and what happens after death. And to also be good to yourself.
But that doesn't make a difference to be good to others and myself. Also in one person mind good is seen as something else and in another person's mind good is seen as something else. Who is to say who is doing good and who is to say who is doing bad. So really there is no good or bad and we cannot be punished for anything we do for I can just say I was doing good.
