As I've gotten older I've seen so many shitty people do wretched stuff and get away with it. It really makes me seethe at the obnoxious atheist crowd. If the afterlife is just some end of consciousness like a TV powering off I'll be pissed. I hope there is a hell and that these folks are burning for eternity; just a white hot searing pain unimaginable to humanity.

Imagine caring about their feelings

They go in the hole where they can't hurt anyone anymore and that's it

There's no pie in the sky when you die. If you want to the-doohickey punish the wicked the-doohickey you've got to do it in the material plane. You've only got one life!

A lot of cultures believe the afterlife to be a pretty ominous place. You're floating around in endless darkness while still being able to feel hunger and thirst. What you do in life has no effect on where you go or what happens when you get there because it's the same for everybody. The only real difference is how people in your life feel about you. If they care then they will regularly leave behind offerings to you so that your spirit won't continue to feel hunger pains or thirst. Otherwise you'll be stuck in darkness while experiencing endless pain.
