Dono, I appreciate you starting a thread to discuss this.
I’ve mentioned I’m no theologian and have only my own experiences to go on.
I wouldn’t try to push my beliefs on anyone, and if a person truly believes that there is no God and ‘religion’ is a bunch of malarkey, then so be it.
And, you and I can disagree about the fuller life aspect as well.
If living as Christ would want us to (serving the needy, helping the less fortunate, etc) is somehow a bad thing, then I’m a little confused.
Those that are self-serving and not putting others first cannot be leaving this world a better place than when they got here.
