 I understand that, I just don't need a promise of an afterlife. I try to live a just & moral life bringing the most amount of positivity that I can this time round be it a first last or something in between. 

I think I need to step back, I decided to jump into this conversation its not really going to end positively for any of us. I am sorry to disturb your evening

 Christians love talking about this stuff.
I guess you're just surprised that I didn't say you were wrong. You're not wrong about that. You're also not wrong in saying you don't need a promise of the afterlife to strive for goodness.

 I wish you the best, but do consider the afterlife.  Everyone will have one.  Our decisions now (whether to accept Jesus or not) decides the kind of after life we all will experience.  It doesn't have to do with doing good or not.  It has to do with believing what the creator said to us and did for us.
