I'm not gonna push you on those impossible claims coz I hate to see a grown man squirm.
Dumb is as dumb does n all that
As for facing your finite existence... lie down on that couch over there and tell me all about it.
Stop it. Typical psychobabble. Facing the fact that I am finite is no different than accepting that trees die and pets die. Do you pretend there is a tree god or cosmic goldfish god? No, so what would be so frightening to know this is it?
You think I need to be on a shrink's couch? You are the adult to still has an imaginary friend.
Atheists are not fatalistic by accepting reality. We have ups and downs in life just like believers. We die just like believers. The only difference is that we don't assign any of the good or bad in life to comic book answers.
Life after I die will be just like it was before I was born. The earth and the sun and the universe were around long before I was born, and it will go on long after I die. Nothing frightening about that. Just like seasons change.
