True believer, good feels, meaning and masochism.

True believer, good feels, meaning and masochism.
I didn't meet a single person who believed in god, afterlife and so on because it is truth.
It's either. Good feels, meaning of life(some people would shoot themselves in the head if there was no god or afterlife).

But some people preach judgement day as though they themselves are gonna go to hell. And they are happy others are gonna go to hell. Where does that come from? Do they enjoy being punished by a deity?

Don't forget that I did not met a SINGLE person who believed in those things because they are true. It all comes down to feels.

So my questions.
1. Why is god and afterlife so important to such an extent that without them shooting yourself in the head is the way to go?
2. Why do some people like it so much that they will be punished by a deity?
