CHAPTER V CONCLUSION AND SUGGESTION

The last chapter includes two subchapters, they are conclusions and suggestions. Conclusions of the data analysis are presented in the first subchapter as the summary of the final project and the second subchapter presents some suggestions that may be useful for the readers.

5.1 Conclusion

Based on the analysis in the previous chapter, I present the conclusion related to the poem Aubade by Philip Larkin. Here, I make a conclusion based on my analysis in finding the atheism point of view towards death in the Aubade poem by Philip Larkin. The comparison of several indications between fear of death and atheism which arise in the Aubade poem by Philip Larkin will lead us to the conclusion if there were no evidence for the existence or nonexistence of gods, atheism would be the only rational position to take. Firstly, based on my analysis in the previous chapter I can conclude the definition of atheism as a disbelief of God existence. In order to move from the default position of atheism to theism, a rational person would require credible evidence for the existence of God. Similarly, credible evidence for the nonexistence of Gods would be required. Some people find that the evidence that God or Gods do not exist is convincing and that atheism is justified. The 71 consequences in rejecting God existence is a lack of belief about all the things which are illogic and abstract that derived from God and deliver through religion. Their logical minds lead them in a term of disbelief about death. Atheism concept will never accept an experience without any evidence. The existence of eternal life after the death comes to end up somebody’s life; atheism view is frightened with emptiness after death. The reasons are atheist imagined a never end sleep without nothing they can do, love, touch, or whereas link with somebody else. This “sense of danger” inspires atheist to make preparations so that they are no longer in the danger. Similarly, they are aware to face a moment that they cannot do anything about the fact of death. However, the only choice they have is continue their life with a noble time, so that they can seize control over how they prepare for death and how they die. Keep in mind that Atheism is not a culture. As the word implies, Atheism is a lack of belief in God. People tend to make the mistake of thinking of Atheism as just another form of religion; we are all individuals and handle death in our own ways.
