Quote of the day
“We work in the dark - we do what we can - we give what we have. Our doubt is our passion, and our passion is our task. The rest is the madness of art.

The different from beleiver in God and non beleiver is the coming life after death. beleivers worry much about that time and becase of that they try to do as much work to gain good marks to reach paradize and that is their rival race and not collecting money or become celebrity or popular or even presidents . They care more about the other life and who tell u that you will not feel after death? you will be concsious with the soul and only the body will die, but the soul is still alive and watch and know everything and will see what she perform in this life and be happy or shame . so you will not be completely dead, you will be alive and beleivers knows that now we are dead and when the real death come, we become alive. dont laugh and make cacism please of that .
You also laughed as we worship god and we are selfish to benefit ourselves and we have to be like that , it is not slefishness as we do it for our God to give us good marks as students study hard and look for the teacher to give them high marks according to their work and at the same time teachers will not benefit from them if they are smart or not, the teacher will teach them basics and they have to do their homeworks alone and the teacher can know who is good student and who will achieve high marks and can pridict that from the style of the student and of course i will not assemble God to teacher in everything but it is as an example.
we do that for ourselves and as an evidence for our success, the same as students received their certificate from school of their grades and at the day of judjment each one of us will receive his certificate from God.
