I like that this article, which discusses religion, emphasizes the life before death rather than life after death. In my personal experience, lots of religious education has been about the life you need to leave before death to enjoy your life after death, which for me was never particularly captivating.

This quote resonates with me, because in my high school AP Psychology class we discussed a phenomenon called confirmation bias, wherein an individual will seek out information to reaffirm their prior beliefs. Now in my everyday life I have become self aware of this human tendency and try my best to avoid it.
