Many organized religions that center on an afterlife do engage in a kind of spiritual bypass that allows adherents to relinquish responsibility for the here and now on this earth. I believe that no matter what one believes about what comes after death, we can only be certain of this moment, so we'd better treat it and the environment in which it unfolds as precious.

That is very well said and I agree with you. The power of the present moment is always profound.
