They didn't say stupid, you did. They said irrational, which it is. You're right no one can prove that there is no afterlife, but believing in something that there is no evidence for is the definition of irrational. That doesn't mean I'm saying you're stupid, I'm just saying that it's irrational. No need to get offended, that's just what words mean.

And remember that it's not an insult. Even a lot of science depends on taking an irrational position to discover things. Doing irrational things in life can sometimes be way more rewarding than doing rational things.

Trying to explain to someone that their take is not evidence-based though... most jump to the conclusion that you're saying they're wrong.
