This story got me thinking about life after death

[Sailor Steve]

"It just is". That's the possibility that seems most likely to me whenever the question of the universe is asked. Are people with this philosopy less moral than those who put their faith in God? I don't think believers are more moral, they simply attribute that morality to a higher source. It occurs to me that people who truly believe that death is indeed the end have more cause to make the most out of life. The ones who are the least moral are the ones who don't care about it at all. Other people aren't real to them, so why should they?

My biggest regret is that I didn't discover these concepts forty years ago. I might have achieved much more if I had actually considered these things. Or not; it's impossible to know and useless to worry about, but always entertaining to consider.

A quote from a much more modern philosopher:
"Oh, when you were young, did you question all the answers?
Did you envy all the dancers who had all the nerve?
Look around you now. You must go for what you wanted.
Look at all my friends who did and got what they deserve."
-Graham Nash, Wasted On The Way
