text: I do not believe in a god or any higher power. I believe that we are alone here and there is nothing out there that can guide or help us.\n\nThat may sound depressing or lonely, but for me it is a very freeing feeling. I know that everything I do, I do for myself and others. I do not answer to some power in the sky. \n\nI also believe that we are nothing more than the most advanced lifeform on earth (in most ways). We can think, love and have feelings. Because of our advanced minds, we created gods to answer things we did not yet understand.\n\nBecause we are nothing more than an advanced makeup of cells put together to make a human, when we die, everything we are dies. There is no soul. We do not go anywhere after death. The only way to have a so-called afterlife is to do good on earth and have people care for and love you and remember you when you die. \n\nAs long as we do everything during our lives to make it better for ourselves and everyone else, we will die happily.
