I made a catholic friend who had me convinced that maybe there was something to Christianity. It was an illusion, there is no God, and all religion does is convince you to hurt yourself and others under the delusion that an imaginary invisible man in the sky will make it up to you in the afterlife.

But the truth is there is no afterlife, neurology has completely debunked the idea of a soul.

Sucks, I really wish there was an afterlife, but this is all we get. All spirituality is, is longing for an afterlife where you get a spirit guide and super powers...... It's nonsense, you wait for it and you'll waste your only time with which you will ever get to exist.

I miss the concept of an afterlife the most, when some shithead like Lindsey Graham assumes room temperature. I would love to feel the satisfaction of knowing they are being dragged to Hell in terror, but alas, I know that isn't the case.

I'm still pleased they are gone, and can't do any more destruction, but my schadenfreude is somewhat limited.

Part of me feels like an afterlife should exist, but I know that's just cope.
