我的回答是：这个问题你搞反了。你应该问，如果死亡象征着永生的开始，那尘世间的
生活还有什么意义呢？
正是死亡的不可避免，才让人生变得有价值。The sense of impending doom makes us
what we are and gives meaning to our existence.
"Hello, I am Wanda June. Today was going to be my birthday, but I was hit by
an ice-cream truck before I could have my party. I am dead now. I am in Hea
ven. That is why my parents did not pick up my cake at the bakery. I am not
mad at the ice-cream truck driver, even though he was drunk when he hit me.
It didn't hurt much. It wasn't even as bad as the sting of a bumblebee. I am
really happy here! It's so much fun. I'm glad the driver was drunk. If he h
adn't been, I might not have gone to Heaven for years and years and years. I
would have had to go to high school first, and then beauty college. I would
have had to get married and have babies and everything. Now I can just play
and play and play. Any time I want any pink cotton candy I can have some. E
verybody up here is happy — the animals and the dead soldiers and people wh
o went to the electric chair and everything. They're all glad for whatever s
ent them here. Nobody is mad. We're all too busy playing shuffleboard. So if
you think of killing somebody, don't worry about it. Just go ahead and do i
t. Whoever you do it to should kiss you for doing it. The soldiers up here j
ust love the shrapnel and the tanks and the bayonets and the dum dums that l
et them play shuffleboard all the time — and drink beer."

教，那么多教派，也会对人生的意义有不同的解读。
我想知道更多你的看法。
你举的例子显然是个信教的人的观点，因为他/她相信自己死后会到天堂过极乐的生活
，这是许多主流基督教派的教义，虽然本人不苟同这样的观点。

基督徒如何知道非基督徒心中的大爱和良善呢？
只读那一本书，如何知到神究竟如何呢？

4 频自己想象，如果神是真的，为何世界最了不起的科学家大多不信神呢？
5 频什么认为自己信的就是真理？
6 自己没见过神，却质问质疑自己见过神的人，是不是属于无知和傲慢呢？
7 倾听见过神的人的故事，从头到尾的研究圣经和历史，最后做出判断就是你们的神话
和现实冲突，你们信仰的神明狭隘暴虐，而且压根不存在

care how devout you have been, but will welcome you based on the virtues you
have lived by. If there are gods, but unjust, then you should not want to
worship them. If there are no gods, then you will be gone, but will have
lived a noble life that will live on in the memories of your loved ones.”
― Marcus Aurelius, Meditations
