What did Lucretius believe?

Lucretius, in his work De rerum natura, believed that there is no such thing as life after death, so death should not be feared, and that there is no purpose in worrying about dying because it’s almost like a deep sleep. If there was no purpose for living, then why would there be a world to live in? And since he believes there is no God who put us here, what is our purpose? Since Lucretius believed that there is no life after death, the world would be more sinful and the world would end a lot sooner. Since, according to Lucretius, there would be no God, there would also be no Ten Commandments. Therefore, there would be no rules. Everyone would be doing whatever they wanted. Who would be the king of the world? Who would they worship? Would people need a higher purpose in life than just being happy? People would be more depressed because they wouldn’t know what they were living for. People would make their own statues to worship. People would not have someone to look up to like God, They would more than likely just be lost. Having God is like a therapist. You can ask Him questions and He will always listen to His followers. There’s just that comfort that you know He will never turn on you. He is always going to be there when nobody else will. So, I think that, in a world without God, it would all just be a mess. We would be lost. When bad things happen, people turn to God to help and, they know if they die, there going to heaven.
