Alert To Atheists: Greta Wants Your Grief Stories!

Who could be less prejudiced than Greta Christina? Well, most everyone who is not Greta Christina. Nonetheless, she will be the reigning lesbian/Atheist author on the subject of grief in the Atheist. And here is my favorite question from her list:
” * Are there secular ideas about death and grief that you’ve found helpful? (This can include songs, poems, quotations, philosophies, books, movies, TV shows, or anything else.)”
[emphasis added]
Yes. These would be the Atheist sources of truth, understanding and consolation.

Gee,I wonder why Greta has failed to mention science,math and logic?
And here I thought their worldview depended on these.

I don't get the distinction you're making. Can't books provide wisdom or comfort? (Isn't the Bible a book?)

The whole point is the relativism of the entire "wisdom" concept, where finding wisdom is relegated to contemporary culture, and comfort is to be taken from the completely values-free flesh cauldron that is now our culture.

Atheists have nowhere else to go, unless it is into their own craniums for solace.
