I talk about my beliefs about what happens during the process of death, and how that can provide comfort as an atheist.

    I honestly don’t care what happens at my funeral because I won’t be there. As long as my loved ones are satisfied, that’s all I hope for. I just posted that because I know many atheists who grieve have found it comforting.

      This is the same conversation my wife and I just had. Funerals are for the living. That’s not to dismiss them, I think they serve a purpose in helping the living reconcile to their new normal.
