Atheists have no afterlife once they die, so they make the most of their life.
Most religions perpetuate the concept of an afterlife (Heaven, Paradise, et cetera) so many religious people could be seen as not seizing all the opportunities in this lifetime because they are simply planning/preparing/getting in God's good books for the next.
*sigh*
Why can't we just live in this world without anyone pointing out/insulting/degrading anyone else's choice of faith or lack of faith? More than 2000 years of evolution and yet we humans don't even know how to coexist peacefully.
taeminnieah: bubblebutpudding mentioned there being an after life to go to when you die, and christians believe you exist there by your soul, right? So i just like to make them think about the science of religion.

I would die for my family and country, so for now, I live for them.
