Believers Death Guilt

believer’s death guilt when a loved one dies whilst wallowing in that savage cesspool of religious belief---whatever batch it might be---there may very well be those especial cretins who see fit to condemn the amount of time spent by those grieving (found to be doing so within the very same cage as their fellow prisoners of said cesspool in question) to be TOO LONG a period of time & when it gets pointed out from the outside by a non-believer in said stupidity that they are being maliciously condemned by the constituents of said stupidity, the grieving loved ones are automatically dually condemned--- 1) for not believing (or even questioning the motives thereof) that the fictitious deity will come to the rescue, “reincarnating” or bringing said dead loved one to “a better place” & 2) for being supported in a way by the humanism found in the non-believer, who due to the fact that they understand that said loved one is NEVER coming back, nor are they going to ANY PLACE beyond the decomposition in the ground or the urn in which their ashes are placed, are much more apt to see the need to handle such an individual with MORE compassion & not LESS. is it not bad enough that one dies in a world of things “created” to kill them by any number of fictitious deities? must there be guilt piled on the consciences of the living who still believe all the absurdity of religion, by their co-conspirators? do you believers in all these fairytales ever get sick of the relentless beatings?
