Renowned physicist Stephen Hawking recently explained his belief that there is no God and that humans should therefore seek to live the most valuable lives they can while on Earth.
Well, yeah.
I would assume that even if there was a God, He would want us to live the most valuable lives we could while on Earth, regardless of any afterlife.
The only difference here is whether you decide for yourself what qualifies as valuable, or whether you allow God (existent or as institutional dogma) decide.
