Do you think religious faith makes death easier to bear?

Asked by ETpro (34605points) March 30th, 2012

I wondered this while reading the responses to a question @whitecarnations asked, How does one feel when they know they are about to die…

Johnny Cash tells us what he’s feeling like in this final interview just a month before he died. Also, there is this video in which former daredevil, Mickey Robinson, gives his testimony about his own near death experience.

As an agnostic, their prespectives got me thinking about the value of beliefs. How do you think Agnostics and Atheists face death. If there is an afterlife, do you think it is open to all, or only to a select few who picked the right Sky Daddy or Daddies to worship and uttered just the right incantations to please tho power/s that control eternity?
