All you need is love.
I believe there is a better reality to come, when we die and go to the next world, but we have to navigate our way through this world to get there.
I obviously don't believe in God the same way you do, but I do believe that we have to navigate our way through this world to get to the spirit world. I believe that it is essential to be mindful of how we live in this life because our personality can carry over into the afterlife. As I've previously stated, the kind of character that a person had in life can and will carry on with them into their afterlife. They will almost certainly be an abusive jack*** in the afterlife if they were an abusive jack*** in life. It is possible to cause a spirit like that to change by confronting them, but it hasn't happened very often for me.
