For me, it would be depresseing to believe in God and know that nothing that I will ever do matters. I can develop new ways to use renewable energy, I can work on new theories to describe the universe, or I can work on new medicines to treat diseases, but with God all those great actions dont matter. You could be on the cutting edge of medical science or you could live in a cave, your actions have no effect on the greater outcome of things.
I am a leftist, and thus, I am often accused of being lazy and wanting the government to provide. For me, the lazy people are the religious who want a God to provide for them.
Its all relative.
