You don't believe in an afterlife, you don't believe in God, why do you say, "Rest in peace?"

And in similar fashion (although not at all the same ulterior motives) as Ghoti had with his posting "What is your view of the afterlife?"... :

What is your view of peace if you've no idea of an afterlife?

Why? Do you hate living for some reason?


What is it that you have against life?

1Peter:3:10: For he that will love life, and see good days, let him refrain his tongue from evil, and his lips that they speak no guile:
1Peter:3:11: Let him eschew evil, and do good; let him seek peace, and ensue it.

"Rest in peace" is sort of a non-denomonational way of saying that
whatever one's personal belief may it result in peace for the deceased if appropriate and also those left behind.
