"Belief in Jesus, as God [is a] myth"
Atheists are called to "Make the decisions for the rest of your lives."
For, if the dead are not raised, neither is Christ; and if Christ has not been raised, your faith is pointless and you have not, after all been released from your sins. In addition, those who have fallen asleep in Christ are utterly lost. If our hope in Christ has been for this life only, we are of all people the most pitiable... If the dead are not going to be raised, then let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we shall be dead.
I Corinthians 15:16-19; 33
Even when we have everything, we have a deep awareness that points to the need for more.
