<.As surgeon general Koop said "their are no atheists at the bed of a dying child"I work at the beds of dying people. > So you mean atheist parents undergo conversion to some religion when they suddenly are confronted with their dying child? Do they then convert back again after the funeral? It seems the Surgeon General has got a barrow to push.
MQ I am shocked by your concrete thought process.The point is there are some things that are so painful and seemingly unfair that one must cling to hope that God exists and there will be justice and happiness in the end."for now we see through a glass darkly" About being careless of those dying :Jesus wept at the death of Lazarus. As to "somebody who is seriously determined to stop the depredations of nature red in tooth and claw, with no back-stop for failure" I respect each persons wishes Come to the US where we will put a tube in your every orifice and draw out your life to the bitter painfull end if you like.I read another study recently where people of faith actually want more things done to keep them alive as long as possible as compared to atheists.You will have good company in the bed next to you
I do not know all the answers MQ.I respect your beliefs and how you choose to run your life.The unhappiness of atheists comes up again and again in the medical literature.It is late google it I just got this one for you right now topix.com
