An atheist wants to express his condolences at a creationism (religion), how? I am an atheist and my friend's aunt passed away ... What should I tell him?
"I'm sorry for your loss? This is pretty standard.
Offer your condolences, what else can you do?
Tell him things are better because they always do.
Just express your sympathy for their loss - the religion makes no difference, in this circumstance.
She is dead and will be forgotten and sorrily nope, it is not in a better place if you consider a better place to extinction
Some ....
sorry for your loss
immagine you can not go through what shes
she can talk at any time and ask you anything
youjust hoenst be, but with tact
this isn't about personal views, its about a death, if you say and do all the things people do in times of loss and death
offer your thoughts, sympathies, condolences and help and be there if and when you can for the person
I am truly sorry for your loss
always worked for me
Say: Its fate rests with Allah alone now. God willing, it will be rewarded.
I would avoid saying "there is no God or heaven and you'll never see your aunt again. It may very well be true, but I do not believe in rubbing it in her mourning process would help a lot.
Maybe say "I'm sorry for your loss. That sounds good.
I'm sorry but it is not in heaven
"I'm sorry for your loss, if you need just ask???
Just keep pure and simple.
In my opinion, there is never a perfect thing to say in situations like that.
"Too bad! This is the break!
Show sympathy for her loss. If you are an atheist who also believes that there is no beyond, you understand how precious and fleeting life. Show that you understand his pain (and fear of his own mortality as the death of another reminder that we, too, who quit one day) and are painful it must go through.
None of the atoms that make up your aunt died. They are always full of energy and will be dispersed by worms and bacteria, and finally picked up in overtime and plants scattered across the planet.
Each atom that make up your aunt was once the pixie dust. Ashes to Ashes dust to dust. From dust it came to dust, she returned to wait until the dust until our sun goes super nova and covers what was once the suns.
Hug her and say: "At least she will never feel pain again, no matter what we believe." If you do it on an ironic tone of voice, you can probably lift her spirits .:)>: D <Good luck, dude.:) She must be special if you're this issue.
"My thoughts are with you."
