It doesn't matter.

From what you've written, I assume you don't believe there is a heaven or hell. I agree with you. But I consider myself to be unfortunate in this, and can only hope that sometime in my life I'll find something I can believe in, to convince me that an afterlife does exist.

Power corrupts, and over the course of a few thousand years there is going to be those who will use that power to their own gain...wouldn't you?
