They apply logic that they cannot apply consistently across all aspects of their lives and use the example of having a bank account and investments to show the logic.

A lot of times people are
obsessed with what's gonna happen in the afterlife.
Right? And so we try to know things
that we can't necessarily know. Right? Well, if
I don't believe this, what's gonna happen to
me in the afterlife? If I don't believe
that, if I don't accept this, if that
right? And
it strikes me as strange because we don't
necessarily apply this logic consistently
across all aspects and dimensions of our lives.
If I have a bank account, I have
investments.
Right? I have money. I have I'm trying
to grow my wealth.
I could play the lottery.
Right? And I could say, well, what's gonna
happen to me if I play the lottery?
Right? Or or what's gonna or I could
do something else. I can invest in a
Ponzi scheme or something like this. I could
do various various things, right,
with the money that I have. Would I
have the same attitude? Right? Would I have
the same attitude of, like, well, what's gonna
happen to me if I do this and
that? Not in the literal questioning of it,
but in the sort of cavalier
casual sort of way that I'm asking this
question. Right? If it came to money or
education or your career or whatever,
you're gonna take reasonable precautions.
Right? Even with the the coronavirus,
like, we saw people and people were at
various different places on the spectrum.
There were some people that had 2 masks
on and you had a holster on the
side of their belt with, you know,
you know, alcohol to
to disinfect everything that they touched. Right? Right?
Everybody is like, okay, I have to take
a certain amount of precaution.
So why is your afterlife any different?
Okay. You have to take a certain amount
of precaution.
And so instead of worrying about,
well,
if
I believe in this thing or keep on
doing this thing that I'm already doing, well,
what's gonna happen to me? Right? Why don't
you just do what you think is gonna
make you safe?
Why don't you just take the precaution that
you're comfortable taking, you know, and worry about
what it is you're putting out there and
being sincere
to your creator and being since a sincere
person who's considering these things and not necessarily
just trying to rig the game to get
a certain result at the end.
