If you're worried about old age, consider investigating the efforts of SENS Foundation[0] instead.

As an atheist, I can tell you that donating to SENS will be much more productive than any time or money invested in honoring false gods or other irrational beliefs.

Thanks. I have been following SENS and Aubrey De Grey since the Methuselah Mouse days. Very commendable and I am looking forward to my years ahead.

When I mentioned my age, the weight of the past as I have witnessed over the years also bears down on my worldview.

The arguments I rattled off as a young atheist in my 20s don’t hold water anymore..because I have more years of witnessing on my back now.
