Christianity offered a safety net for death, and it was hard to walk away from that.
In this episode we talk about what we used to believe about death and the afterlife when we were Christians. We discuss our preoccupation with eternity at a young age, and talk about how our ideas of heaven weren't really based on anything.
We finish by talking about how hard it was to face our own mortality after we left our faith, and how we have chosen to use the finiteness of our lives as a motivation to really live, here and now.
"Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming 'Wow!'" - Hunter S. Thompson
