> And if God doesn't exist, then nothing matters anyways, so why worry?

I would argue the opposite: if god does exist, then nothing really matters anymore, except the whims of a powerful entity.

Not having a supernatural power meddling in our affairs liberates us to do great things.

It's a shame that we've done such a poor job at teaching the wisdom brought to us from the abrahamic religions (judaism, christianity, islam).

The real seed of the message is that the one true God is not a noun, it's a verb. Can a verb have an agenda and a plan?

By my own experience, the common misunderstanding that God is a noun is nothing more then a projection of our human egos. In a way, using God(verb) to project through our minds and out our mouths/hands that there is one true Supernatural Organizer(noun) is idolatry.

By my beliefs you're acting at a very high level of spirituality by avoiding servitude to any Supernatural Organizer.

I like your idea, and I will add a bit to it.

If we could have a potentially infinite afterlife, or potentially infinite reincarnations, then just one life doesn't matter much.

But if there's no such thing, if there's only this life and nothing after, then every single second being alive is the most valuable thing ever.
