but here is the kicker - the believer risks nothing if he is wrong. if you believe there is an afterlife and then find nothing - what have you lost?

if you are an unbeliever - eternity is at risk. believing that there is no heaven or hell and then be proven wrong??? ouch.

i guess that is why it is called faith. you've got to believe it to see it.
