Atheists, you'd rather there is no Divine Realm and no Hope, wouldn't you?

The only place anyone can find divine truth is IN THE BIBLE, my friend. 

 No religion or denomination of mankind has all divine truth.  Everyone has some from the Bible but the Bible is supernatural. 

 It is God's Word living and powerful and sharper than any two-edged sword, dividing asunder soul from spirit and bone from marrow and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.  It is Spirit and it is Life and all divine truth is found there and nowhere else.

I am fine with an afterlife. I just don't like that it amounts to a highschool popularity contest to see who gets in. Do you go to the right club, wear the right clothes, say the right prayer. It's ridiculous to think eternity rests on such superficial and geographical determinations.

     As an atheist, I'd vote for a divine realm and a chocolate mousse every Sunday night. But hope isn't going to make those things exist.  

     "We are but a moment's sunlight fading in the grass."

It is a shame there are people that would have no hope without religion. I cannot understand this at all.

"RATHER " adverb   used to indicate a PREFERENCE  in a particular  matter

  HOPE a HUMAN  EMOTION  , a persons feeling of  EXPECTATION  and desire for a certain thing ( event ) to happen / occur

  i have a REASONABLE  , expectation that  Nancy will develop certain skills and knowledge to graduate from college  ....based on the demonstration people  have achieved a college education 

PSYCHOLOGY TODAY   Dec 26 2011 article sub titled"  HOPE  involves the  WILL

to get there and the different WAYS  to get there "   TALENT skill and ability alone will not get you there  research shows  its HOPE aka the WILL

HOPE allows people  to approach PROBLEMS with a mind set of STRATEGY  -set suitable to success   increasing  the CHANCES of reaching a goal  its a  dynamic COGNITIVE motivational SYSTEM ..

.EMOTIONS follow cognition NOT the other way around   hope leads to LEARNING GOALS  HOPEFUL people  do NOT SIMPLY  BELIEVE  "GOOD" things will happen  they BELIEVE their ACTIONS  can bring about  the DESIRED GOALS .. which goes more to HUMANISM  HUMAN ACTION  than  the  god proposition  and that  of HEAVEN HELL concept  of many religions

I don't give "divine realms", (whatever your particular religion defines that as), much thought.  I hope for things, but I don't pray they happen as praying is a waste of time. 

I'm sorry that the only hope in your life is a fantasy about an after-life paradise.  Your life must really suck.  Some of us would prefer to make life better here and now rather than sitting back and waiting for some reward after death. Why are you against helping people in this life, against trying to make things better for people here and now? Why does your religion teach you that there is no hope for this life?

Oh yes!! I'd rather gnash my teeth, and then 

watch some clown walk on water and curse fig trees too!

It's not a matter of what I'd "rather"... it's a matter of what IS and what is NOT.

If all it took was believing a thing to make it true, I'd have been a billionaire YEARS ago.

That infinitely better than them existing for sure.
