If death is the culmination of all your earthly efforts so you can finally go and be with your god, than why don't you have great big parties and celebrations everytime one of you dies? Where are the tooting horns? The DJs and dancing?
All I ever see are somber, depressing wakes and funerals. Everyone dresses in black. Everyone is crying and whining about THEIR loss, not the dead persons reward. Where are all the congratulations for a job well done? Where are the high-fives for the persons faith all those years? When you visit their graves on holidays, why not leave "congratualtions" balloons and big foam "thumbs-up" gloves?
If going to be with god is the greatest possible thing there is, you folks sure don't act like dying is all that great. In fact, you act just like all the rest of the people I've ever met... weak, devastated, sad, and frighted to death of your own mortality.
Maybe... deep down... you really aren't as certain of an afterlife as you think you are.
