I found this link through another forum.

An atheist at Virginia Tech.

I think the author does a good job of explaining how atheists cope with tragedies like what happened a week ago.

We don't believe these people have died for anything: God's plan, as a beacon to the rest of us, to be a vivid memento mori for all. We just believe they have died, brutally and without mercy. We refuse to lie to grieving mothers out of some patronising sense that a pleasant myth is more respectful than a terrible truth.
