“Live a good life. If there are gods and they are just, then they will not care how devout you have been, but will welcome you based on the virtues you have lived by. If there are gods, but unjust, then you should not want to worship them. If there are no gods, then you will be gone, but will have lived a noble life that will live on in the memories of your loved ones.”—Marcus Aurelius .

That’s a good question… The world will still try to find a fatherly figure, just like we did during communism with Enver Hoxha. For example, Albania was the first officially atheist state in the world. We banned religion and punished people practicing it. To replace the emptiness that the lack of God caused, we started worshiping our dictator, just like North Koreans do nowadays with Kim Jong Un.. So, instead of an almighty punishing fictional figure, we will adopt a real punishing one, to keep us under control… Just like Orwell’s book, 1984.
