What if there is no “God” to “accept or reject” and there will be no “judgement”?[/b]

I've worked in the graphic arts and printing businesses. I've done some illustration work here and there. I used to have a website, but I let it lapse. Here are two illustrations I've done.

Why don't you emulate a great artist like Van Gogh and shoot yourself? That would spare us all from having to endure any more of your ponderous emoting.

The word “lose” is highly subjective in this case. But lets just for the sake of argument here say that it is simply “correct” to say “we all lose” if there is no god. Then I would ask the question:
“why can’t reality be such that we inevitably all lose?”
……In doing this, I cannot go wrong, no?...…
You can go wrong -what if what you believe is not true?
-are you comfortable with the idea that you could go through your whole life believing a falsehood and then die never knowing the truth?
-I am certainly not comfortable with that idea -I find that idea a cold horrifying thought!

this miserable atheist black beetle said that you cannot kill your ultimate Enemy -Yourself😵
no, illustration is a skill or a craft, like making pottery, art is much more experimental and seeks to create solutions from conceptual ideas, for example there is a now famous Scottish artist jack vitriani, who paints those loathsome romantic pictures of couples on the beach with a violinist playing etc etc, this is illustration, but not art, for there is no intellectual content, although it may be argued that art in its very nature is designed to be decorative, as in the case of Mattise, but this was a direct intellectual act, not something of accident.

oh illustrious one! there is more divinity in you than you could possibly imagine! like the shell of a black beetle, initially it appears black, but when we look closely we see the spectrum of light, the rainbow reflected on its surface, even though the beetle himself is unaware of it!
