Death and the nonbeliever
#1
Death and the nonbeliever
A family member is currently on thier deathbed. I'm finding it is easyer to cope with knowing that it is the end and there is no sky daddy to pray to for recovery.. I'm finding being an Atheist, it takes all the confusion and the questions "why them/me lord" out of the equation. I'm still sad that she has to go, but I also know that is how it is, noone lives forever.

When I was still a believer I remember being confuzed and praying them to be spaired only to be disapointed when death still came. Then all the questions of "why" asked of god only to get no answer. Even my 11 year old is handeling it well and they were verry close. When I became an atheist a few years ago I was wondering how one would deal with death knowing its the end..... As it turns out for me anyhow...easyer
Did I make a good point? thumbs up Smile I cant help it I'm a Kudos whore. P.S. Jesus is a MYTH.
