Hi, I was wondering how other atheists/agnostics handle the loss of a loved one. I should clarify that this is a theoretical discussion on my part, I haven't lost anyone close to me since I became an atheist and hope that I won't lose anyone anytime soon. I'm just wondering how others have either dealt with such grief or pondered about how they would handle it. Most other religions have rituals, sayings, and beliefs (like the idea of an afterlife or heaven) developed over centuries to help ease the blow of such loss. Do atheists have anything similar?
