“People whose religions commit them to the existence of the afterlife feel the terror of death just as anyone else does, nor are they spared the wrenching pain of loss. They do not respond to their loved one's death as though the loved one has moved to a place where they can't contact them for a while but expect to later rejoin them. They might say that is how they see the situation, but their profound sorrow and their mourning practices point in a different direction.” DeathReligionLossGriefMourningAfterlifeHuman ExperienceBelief Vs Emotion Book:Open Socrates: The Case for a Philosophical Life Source: Open Socrates: The Case for a Philosophical Life
