I remember asking these same questions, but I suppose the only thing that keeps us there is Faith. I was baptised Catholic[sounds bad right? Hah.] My father was very much catholic and is still very dedicated, but I won't go into the hypocrisy and such flaws of structured religion.
I know of religion and God, because I was raised in the way. I am blessed to have an understanding mother who allowed me to think for myself. She never pressured me and hence i have been free to form my own thoughts.
It's all up to you. The thing I see is, you're following everyone else's view of God.
I mean, I have no knowing of "His" being real and have my own doubts, but I form my own views. Why should i go by what everyone else says. Even if there isn't a God. I'd like to believe so, it's much more fun and a bit easier sometimes. In a sense I do believe there is some sort of entity out there, but it's partly all hope and faith. Even without that though, just live and appreciate what you do have or what there is.
I love nature. Im a bit old fashioned and pagan in that sense. I believe people have souls. But it's all a matter of faith and Hope.
For each person it's different. I can't tell you what to believe of hope for. It varies and it changes. People make up their own reasons. There's merit everywhere. Ignorance is bliss, but I make it through by trying to be a btter person everyday and helping people.
There's a universal truth that we can only speculate about. No one knows until they're gone. We can only assume and keep living. That's the control we have, what we make of our own lives. We choose who we are and how we affect each other.
Right now is what matters most. Later you can worry about a judgement or not. Right now is most important. Take it a day at a time.
