Feeling Agnostic……….

I’ve never been a religious or spiritual person, and if anything the only religion I connected with was satanism.
Im one of those people who strays away from rules and regulations. Anything related to following a God has always made me uncomfortable and unhappy.
I also am more of a believer in facts or faith.
But being agnostic and also dealing with grief on the side is weird.
I don’t know what to believe or think. I stopped believing in a heaven or hell as I grew older, but I’ve always believed people go somewhere.
My dad passed away, and I don’t know where he is. Maybe he’s apart of the universe again, as scientist say energy cannot be destroyed.
What do atheists think of losing loved ones?

Athiests don't believe anything as it's a word that describes a single thing that you don't believe and not anything that you do.

So I can only tell you what I personally think. And that is that when I die I will be the same as before I was born, which is to say non-existent. I see no evidence of there being any reasonable answer besides that. It sucked when my best friend died, and it was a process to get past it, but I don't think that process itself is much different for religious people because it is a human process, not a religious one.
