Karebu,
I hope you will wait for an answer from Josephus, As I'm sure he will have a very good one.
Mallory,
I suggest you read the rules of this forum, We aren't allowed to respond to these posts unless we have permission from Josephus.
Sorry for butting in here guys! I know I didn't ask permission to post, I just wanted to make sure Karebu returns for a more realistic answer to their question.

I'm not Josephus but I just want to say that some atheists, like me, find much happiness in life.
And you don't really die, as much as simply returning from whence you came.

We exist because God desires a soul mate. God desires someone to prove his love to.
"No love is greater than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends." - Jesus
Obviously, God can't die for the angels. And since the angels arent' made in God's image, and man is, then our purpose is congruent with our own identity as being his image-bearers.

We are created in God's image. Don't you ever get creative?

Mallory,
I guess alot of it has to do with the way you look at things, and how you see them.
Let's see now,
If God sends the rain, should I curse him for it?
Or should I thank him for blessing and watering the ground?
In the winter when I go out to collect wood for the fire,
should I curse the fact that I have to go out and gather wood? or should I thank God that I have the wood to collect so I can stay warm?
I will dwell on the things that are good and the things I have to be thankful for.
If I spent all my time dwelling that wich is bad then my life would become meaningless.
