Here's a thought

My question tonight is why are people obsessed with finding religion. Why is where we go after life so important? Hell, Heaven, Purgatory, and reincarnation, what is so special about each place. If you really stop to think about it, we live these places ever single day. Hell is what we make of it, when you’re having a bad time in your life, your going through hell. At some point in every humans life they experience hell…a hole of depression, and humans spend a time of waiting to leave that hole, aka purgatory, then once we find our true happiness after reaching the top it is considered heaven…..and then we become a new person and a new transition occurs in our lives. So who is to say that there is really life after death? Why can’t some people except the pure fact you may die and never wake up, how would we have known we are dead…do we know when we are in deep slumbers or comas?
Maybe these after life places are from the depths of imaginations from humans who could not bear the thought of eternally being separated from their loved once. Safe places for these departed spirits to dwell just to ease the mind of the living. Can the human mind not allow you to think of that depressing thought? Its really not depressing if you think of it from the deceased point of view now is it?
Why can’t humans live for today? We may very well be universally stuck in an never ending cycle of purgatory. All us humans do is wait. As long as clocks are hung on the wall, time is measured. Why do humans not roll down their windows on their drive home from work to listen to the gentle wind and the frogs chirping while zooming home to rush through dinner, only to sit and wait to go to sleep? Why must people have to believe in an all might powerful one to do good deeds? Why can’t humans automatically do good deeds with out being rewarded?
