not religious
Shakespeare speaks not of heaven or hell- but of the undiscovere'd country (or undiscovere'd uncountry - I put that in there just for you Fred)

When this is all there is, this is precious. Far more precious, I would think, than a small life in the face of eternity. When an agnostic (like ME) or an atheist, gives up this life for we know not what, we give it up without believing there is more more more. That makes even an unpleasant life better than nothing.

I wonder what the stats are for suicide and careless death causing behavior in atheists and agnostics versus the "religious". I would be interested in seeing those.
