This IS Dumbya's base Bob..

As opposed to people who believe they will not be held accountable by a supernatural entity for the actions they take while they are in mortal form..

Right or wrong, I'd rather have 63% of the American people believing they will be judged according to their works on this planet, than believing that the only person they are accountable to are themselves.

So stop being such an elitist and thinking that people are stupid for believing in an "afterlife". Even if you disagree, it provides a valuable public service in restraining our "animal spirits" (as Keynes would refer to them)..

It people like you, who don't believe they are have anything to fear from being judged after death that frighten me. Because you can easily justify exploiting and dominating other human beings because you think you should "get your reward" here, because there isn't any reward (or punishment) after you die...

I only get frightened by religious people who believe they have the right to physically force others to convert to their beliefs. (convert or die mentality)..
