Christians obsession with being saved and the afterlife

Fuck, man. This is one of the biggest things I think for me that is an issue with Christianity. The whole concept of it revolves around being saved, KNOWING where you are going after you die, and that there is a god that cares so much about you as to allow you to live forever in some way.

Logically speaking, for me, what a dumb concept. Now, regardless of whether I believe in any kind of god or not, I don't know what happens after death. Really, nobody does. Well, I have one theory; WE'RE DEAD.

But to proclaim things with an absolutely certainty that there is a heaven or hell, to live your entire being on the edge of your seat waiting for the afterlife, just isn't living IMO.

Funny, when I left Christianity, this is one of the first beliefs that I shed. Christians just have to know where they are going or what happens after death. I'm okay with not knowing personally. I'm comfortable with "I don't know." I'm not interested in being saved, having an invisible relationship with make believe things or living my life on the edge of my seat. I'm much rather interested in here and now.
