Just curious - what consolation could an atheist offer when a loved one has died?
____________

Exactly the same consolation as you would offer.

Is empathy now a uniquely Christian trait? Sorry, I completely disagree.

So an atheist would tell a person who is grieving that they will see their loved one again in heaven? Interesting.
