It’s right to think there is an afterlife


Because the afterlife is reality
I agree completely, but I'm not sure how this is related to the topic on hand?

Just saying…
He wishes to rescue everyone willing to turn to the good:

8 But do not forget this one thing, dear friends: With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day. 9 The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.

Some think this might mean that so long as people are still turning to Christ, then the final culmination will wait, so that those still turning to Him can do so.

well it’s funny and sad
Ah, you have something 180 degrees opposite there. For those of us (of the world's 2+billion Christians) that really to believe and therefore read/listen to learn from Christ what He taught, then when we are doing as He taught we have joy and peace beyond understanding, here and now.

It begins with such things as "love one another".... It's something everyone wants in their heart, the most authentic living. A life actually lived well.

Clever but unclear

cargo cult, any of the religious movements chiefly, but not solely, in Melanesia that exhibit belief in the imminence of a new age of blessing, to be initiated by the arrival of a special “cargo” of goods from supernatural sources ...
