It comes from me. Why is that inferior?

Quote:Everything you worked for, everything you loved and valued, all the people for whom you cared. All gone like it never even happened. Believers strive for what endures.

Except you've got no assurance that it will endure. Neither of us do. The difference is that I'm not splitting my time, or potentially tricking myself into believing a lie. We only have one life we can be sure of, after all.
