atheism
Atheism is the philosophy of holding every ultimate answer in abeyance, staring at a throne of gods that never occupied. Knowing there is no afterlife guarantee, it burdens you with the resolve to grin nervously between life and death. It means choosing a narrative that goes on even when the main character never arrives. A simple yet endless DIY project in which you furnish your own ethics and anxieties. For example, someone may skip saving for heaven but diligently budget tomorrow's coffee.
