*Of course, the existence of an afterlife does not imply a moral duty 
any more than the lack of one.  Theoretically, it's just as likely** 
that God exists, and doesn't care how we treat other people or our planet.

**From a verifiable standpoint.  You can't prove God exists, and you 
can't prove his nature.
