Not upset. From what I have witnessed folks take the after life as a trump card and don't put in the work while we they are around - dying for a cause so to speak. While we all pound chests and say that we would die for our country and God, why not live for it and create peace?
If we all knew, really knew that there was nothing after we die, would we live the way we do? I don't think so. I think people would take better care of their bodies, minds, families and maybe others. In the long run we would all be better off. We would be more into the present with a eye on the future to maintain as healthy a life and society as possible.
This concept of heaven is a scapegoat IMO...
