@eladar saidIn what way does your certainty that the afterlife is "truth" create worth in your life?
Our beliegs are totally irrelavent. Truth is truth no matter what we believe.
Does the certainty you have that you will have everlasting life really create worth, in and of itself, during your Earthly lifetime?

@eladar saidYou said: "If we do not exist after death then this life is worthless anyhow." But you believe you DO exist after death, the implication being that you 'existing after death' means this life of yours is NOT worthless. I am just addressing what you have posted.
Who said my life is worth anything?

@fmf saidDo I believe that? I believe some will live for eternity, but most are dead. Who is who is God's call not mine.

@eladar saidDeluded? OK. Well, you can try to explain the difference between us as you see fit, but your own unilaterally declared lack of self-worth does not project anything onto, nor does it affect, the reality of the life I live or the way I assess its meaning.
As I said, self deluded.

@fmf saidWorthless people like to delude 'themselves' that others are the same.
