A long time ago, yes. But to be honest, it just didn't resonate.
Bill, I'm nearly 50 years old. I was consumed by such thoughts when
I was younger and still burdened by the weight of being raised with
the God myth, and wanted answers to the sorts of deep questions we
all wonder about. But I'm satisfied with what I've come to learn
after all those years; I don't still feel the need to constantly
question things. After you've done that for a few thousand times and
you come up with the same answers, you stop feeling the need to keep
going through that.
One of the benefits of not believing in an afterlife is that it
makes you constantly aware of the limited amount of time you really
do have, and so you want to try to optimize that time as best as
possible. Spending it revisting the same old things is not my idea of
the best use of that time.
