People see their loved ones and find comfort, at the end, regardless of their faith or a lack of faith. Except when they don’t, again regardless of faith or it’s lack.
It doesn’t seem as if any particular belief or even belief in general is the thing providing comfort when we can get it. I am an anti-theist...and while I’m no more bothered than anyone else when people attribute their state of mind to religion(and when that reported state of mind is actually positive, lol)...I just don’t think that whatever unspecified comfort theism may provide some people could ever balance the scales of effect.
