Idle Existance
I don't believe in God. I don't believe he exist.
I believe that when you die, when your mind and body decides it is time to go, that there is nothing there for you to go to. You simply cease to exist. Not very imaginative, I know.
But I do believe that the existence of this belief is unhealthy. After all, who wants to know that after death, you become nothing? I certainly try not to think to much about it. It just leads you astray, as you start thinking everything you do becomes pointless.
But I also believe that the existence of the belief is important. It's required to maintain an illusion of barriers, to keep people ruled by the knowledge that there are consequences for unjust actions, for sin and wrong doing.
We cant very well govern a world if there is no set society values and standards. If people don't know where they stand, if people believe what they are doing is right when in fact it's morally wrong.
No, I don't believe in a religion, but I still understand its importance.
