   Incidentally, Bertrand Russell once said that if humans really believed   
   there was a God and an afterlife they'd have no fear of death, but as   
   many US soldiers who fought in Afghanistan could attest (and part of the   
   reason the US ain't there no more) is there are definitely a substantial   
   number of religious people out there who don't give one single shit   
   about dying.
