[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As an atheist, one of my strongest convictions to my children is NOT lying to them about magic sky daddy or having them believe fake things to comfort them. Obviously ymmv, but that was one thing I hated about religion and one thing I was determined not to do to my kids. So I don't really get the point.[/quote] This is me too. We discuss death with facts, not platitudes or promises of Heaven. We follow this with emphasis on our values for why it’s important to honor and love those around you NOW in this time. That helping those around us is important because we are privileged, and we aren’t doing it to get into Heaven, it’s because it’s the right thing to do. OP, you sound agnostic, not atheist. [/quote] FYI you can be an agnostic atheist as those two words have different meanings [/quote]
