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."

时间无限能做的事情也无限，就不需要规划要做哪些事情了。如果你把”意义“定义为
对你想做的事情的一个规划，那么这个观点就严格成立了。
但是这一点并不仅限于无神论，教徒可以说有限的生命期是之后永生期的一个试用期，
你在试用期的表现决定你转正以后的职位和待遇，所以你还是需要做这个规划的。
声明1：我厌恶这世界上的所有主流宗教，尤其是伊斯兰教和天主教。
声明2：我不了解这些宗教的教徒如何看待生命期的意义，我只是做出一个可能的假设。

无限的人生当然也有价值，还可以有大得多的价值。
